That's a great deal, considering many vendors literally sell it for more than twice that. Im actually kinda jealous. Have fun with it man :)

If used... No, You can get yourself and 980. Other wise yes

A 980 is a lot less powerful than a 295x2. If you meant 980ti, then sure if you can find them for 500

Bruh. If you wait for only the best of the best deals, you'll never have a working PC

Even a 980Ti is slower than a 295x2 if crossfire is enabled

Yes but 980 Ti is $150 more expensive. I said if they are used R9 295x2 they are not worth it

It would be used but for about 3 months at low load.

How do you know that?

Do they have a receipt that shows that is 3 months old?

Unless they can prove it it has been used since day one after release at max load.

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

You're making no sense. The 980ti isn't as powerful as the 295x2 and he can pay less money for the 295x2. $150 might be a deal breaker

That's IF crossfire enables. Where as the 980ti always works.

 

But that's a great deal, I'd do it.

If anyone asks you never saw me.

Yeah. I'd pick the 980ti over the 295x2 any day. But $500 aint bad
