-So i found a craigslist ad that is has a liquid cooled computer. He says he got it as part of an auction and says he doesn't know much about computers. I texted him to see if he knows anything more about the computer but he hasn't responded.
- I was wondering if any of you, know of a gpu with 4 display ports and 2 dual link dvi-d. I've looked everywhere and haven't found anything so far. I'm assuming they are previous generation gpus since they are in a 3-way configuration but maybe not.
-I'm assuming the computer is worth the risk
heres a link to the craigslist ad

They're not workstation cards, none of them have io configs like that. A quick search on pcpp came up with all asus cards but like I thought, it's all amd cards. Many of them came with no hdmi because eyefinity needs dp. It's not a 6950 because the pcie cables. It has 2 8 pin so that narrows it down to 6970, 7970, or 280x.

So... This is odd. All the consumer gaming cards I have ever seen have at least 1 HDMI.

These are likely Workstation cards. Quadro and FirePro cards often have only Display port outputs and DVI is still common in the industry as well.

yeah, that's the closest i've seen thus far though the two screws near the top of the card are not visible in the picture , and i think you would be able to see them at least partially.

It has a clear pic of the mobo manual so you know the model and it's x79. x99 came out 2014 so it's a bit old. That still puts it in the time frame for those 3 gens of amd gpus. It's not worth $1250 imo. The issues with tri fire and for that price, you'd get better performance from something else. You're paying a lot extra for wc which is not needed.
