Need to return GTX 680

[Steffwiz]

I recently purchased an ASUS GTX 680 (TOP Edition) and I need to return it. I contacted Newegg but they will charge me an $80 restocking fee.

So my question is: should I keep it and try to sell it or send it back to Newegg and take the restocking fee?

The card is now discontinued by ASUS, but is a great card. The box was opened by me, but the card was never used.

Thanks for any help!

Why do you need to return it?

Why do you need to return it?

I need to buy a cheaper card. The ASUS GTX 680 TOP was too expensive.

Just get a GTX 680 Signature

I would try and sell it on amazon or ebay.

Returning the card I currently have I would lose $80. The question here is whether I should take the restocking fee or try to sell it on Ebay or something.

Given that your reason is price, it's not likely you will come out ahead with a resale or restocking fee. At this point, you probably will just have to use it.
