Suppose it depends, I think 2 SLI'd 660's is probably better than a single 760..
yeah but you can get a new 760 for 140 is what i mean .. not 200 so two brand new 760 for 280 or two 660ti that are used for 80 quid less isnt a good deal to me

First ever eBay sale, sold my old 560Ti for £45 plus p&p. Chuffed!

Also astonished that it still held value after 5 years, and is usable for a good chunk of modern gaming.

Anyone want to buy a doorstop with PS4 embossed on it? Final Fantasy whatever and EA golf. Never use it.

You made me wtf then.

I've been using Ebay a lot recently. Some of the cool shit I've bought lately (and fixed):

(I haven't fixed the printer yet, it still needs work)

Faulty clock divider chip on that one, the clock divider feeds the video chip (which oddly supplies the CPU clock), fired right up once I replaced it

Unfortunately this worked perfectly so there was nothing to fix :( I am still looking for a boxed version of Cosmic Cruncher at a reasonable price.

This bugger took absolutely ages. Everything on the board is TTL, took weeks to go from a flat line across the screen to a working raster, and then a bit more to find out why the CPU wasn't running, and then a bit more to diagnose 2 dead ROM chips and a good 7-8 dead RAM chips. And they're all obsolete so in the end I had to substitute rom and ram with a modern fix.

Acetylene bicycle lamp I cleaned and replated. Now I just need to find an antique bike not being sold for stupid money (everyone wants hundreds for bikes pulled out of canals ffs)

It were a reet mess when I bought it, but electroplated it looks a lot better. I still don't have the correct soapstone burner for it though so it isn't perfect yet.
