has all shaders working and functions perfectly as a 6970 2gb. I have the receipt and it is not registered what do you think it is worth. I'm gonna ebay it. Oh it is in mint condition with everything still in the plastic. I'm thinking 260ish but I'm not sure because I am seeing 6950s going for 225.00 after rebates. However, this was one of the first 6950's made and really is a 6970. What is it worth? I'm not taking offers so don't ask. If I do I will post that in a thread. Thx and let me know what you think. The cards just collecting dust do to my ps3.

Do understand, the ones you see that are $225 AR, are 1GB versions.
I would assume you have a 2GB version since you bought roughly around when they came out.

Question is, how long has it been used?

You should be able to get atleast $250 for it.

Used HD6950, maybe $200. Can by new for $250. The fact that the shaders are unlocked and running as a HD6970 won't get any extra cash IMO.
