I'm a collector, and I would love to get my hands on the rare HD 8970 or HD 8950. I know they're the same as HD 7970 and 7950, however I would really like to have them for my collection. If anyone has one reach out to me and maybe we can work out a deal.

Not sure i ever saw these names :).

What else you have in your collection ?

HD 8000 was a rebadge of HD 7000 for OEMs. I have an 8950, however it crashes under any load, as far as I can tell the GPU core was heavily degraded or something as it seemed okay at like 1250 mv and 500 mhz. I guess I could just flash the bios from my HD 8950 on my reference HD 7950, but I also want to bench it on hwbot and I don't believe in that kind of thing. Hopefully I can find an 8970, but they're hella rare. 8950s are easier to find but have an inflated value vs a 280 or 7950.

there was one on ebay couple days ago for $350 (ouch) gone now though

 

8950 or 8970? There's 8950's for $200 right now which might be doable for a working one if it end up being the only way. But preferably I'd rather get an 8970 if I'm paying that much...
