A few weeks old, these cards were used for some currency mining, are fully functional and will be supplied as new and in their original boxes. They are £235 online in the UK. Price is per card and does not include shipping.
For those interested in mining, these were mining Vertcoin and were stable at 310kh/s each. (Vertcoin is about twice the load of Litecoin etc)

Any questions please ask :)
 
I was mining Vertcoin, and if I cashed out the coins generated in the few weeks I'd make some money but not enough to cover the cost of the cards. I mined them to keep though and as an academic exercise. The only reason I've stopped is that the noise and heat generated is too much for inside the house and I don't have a garage to keep the rig in.

If someone is thinking of buying them to get rich quick with crypto currency, think again. Vertcoins are worth about $2 each and two of these cards will generate 5 or 6 a day.

There are some serious miners out there though, on the pool I was mining with there was a guy who was running several hundred cards (about £20,000 worth of graphics cards alone) and he wasn't alone! There is some serious speculation going on.
