The eBay cards are definitely mining cards.

You can usually ask for a live demo when it comes to Craiglist.

^ It has a nice fan that can be turned off with a custom fan curve with a case with good airflow.

OK.

Would it be worth it for me to buy that 7850 and Xfire?

OK.

Would it be worth it for me to buy that 7850 and Xfire?

Here's what I was able to find in terms of getting benchmarks.  Personally, I'd say go for it:

--Black Ops 2 multiplayer: 124-178 FPS

--Far Cry 3: 78-150 FPS

--Borderlands 2: 175-245 FPS Physx on Low

--Dishonored: 128-130 FPS

--Crysis 2: 65-102 FPS DX11 with Maldo High Resolution Textures

--Just Cause 2: 122-280 FPS 8X Aliasing

--Metro 2033: 49-82 FPS DX11

--Crysis 3: 39-65 FPS Aliasing Disabled

Also keep in mind the recent Omega drivers improve on these numbers, as well as problems with CF... apparently.  I got a 7950 myself, so I'm excited to see how Omega will fare as well.

Probably not.
