WHAT DO I DO!?!?!?!

Man the 970 is great. I own one besides that fact that you sold an entire system for one graphicscard. I would say GOOD DAY SIR.

The Vram "issue" as most people call it do not effect the performance that massive as people think to know. 
If you think your card has something you should first troubleshoot it. Make clear you didn't damage the card in anyway. And you are actually good to go to get a new card ... in europe(In the first 6 months or so). I changed the 2x290 to a 970 due to BSOD and so on.
I could sell you a 7870 from Gigabyte. <-- I got that card repaired from them.

But in that situation is just one thing left to say. 
B) Deal with it. 

 

My mind keeps coming to your situation.
Please somehow explain to me.
The price which you payed for your system is $1500.

One part of your system costed you $350, but you weren't happy with it. You wanted another component, which costs $200, to replace it.

You tried to sell your old part on eBay for I imagine $300, a deal which was good for you, but really not great for a buyer's perspective, since he can get a NEW card for only $50 more.
If you have sold your old part for the extremely low price of $150, a deal which would be REALLY appealing to the buyer, and bought your new part, your system cost is now $1500 -150 + 200 = $1550.
Instead you sold your entire system for $800. If you buy the new GPU for $200, your system cost is now at 1550 -800 + 200 = $950.
When you get THE REST OF THE PARTS THAT YOU DAMN NEED, you will spent another $1150 if you want to mirror your old system. ($1150 for a no GPU system is plain dumb to spend. You can have a 4790K and 16 gigs of ram on a descend board FOR FAR LESS... and nothing more than that would be needed for anything gaming related. Even that's a bit of an overkill). So now your system cost is 950 + 1150 = $2100. And EASILY it could've been $1550.

Not this is a 2100 - 1550 = $550 difference.
Even if you have destroyed your 970 with a bat and gotten a 960, your cost would've been 1500 + 200 = $1700.

So in the worst case scenario you would've been 2100 - 1700 = $400 richer... $400.

 

You made your situation even worse(if you can call it a worse situation) by selling a whole system.
Why did you? OR How could you??
This situation is unexplainable. It crashed my brain.exe.

Can't fault others for your mistakes.

 

The number of ways in which you acted foolishly is numerous.

Well I sold $5000 worth of 970's for them on my YouTube video and got... how much? $10. They sure a lucky for the free ads. They could give me an ROG Swift and still gain thousands off of me.

lol, okay buddy
