290 XFX DD Black edition for 490 USD

Hello, I was wondering if this is a decent price for this card before tax? Looking to upgrade, and not to nvidia.

That card was suppose to be released around $400, but all current situations considered that isn't a bad price, especially if you don't want to go nvidia then you don't have any options.

If you're hell bent on sticking with AMD, I would wait until the prices drop back down. The 290 use to be the $400 card and the 290x the $500.

Yep, was possibly looking to get into litecoin and maybe dogecoin mining, it could be shipped to me in a week, and the nice part is, you either have to wait a while on amazon, or get a reference model for that price right now. I have free electricity access right now, so it could help with mining costs.

Do you think I could flip it for my money (30% max loss) on ebay in the next four months if I needed to get rid of it.

I probably would sell some of my xenoblade chronicles I bought for 20 bucks apiece on ebay to help fund it, I have 5.

If you don't mind me asking, where did you find it for this price? Have been looking for this particular model as well, and can't find it for under $550. I say go for it.

NCIX and they sent me a 290x as they had the model marked wrong.
