lol...

Diablotek = maybe worst garbage brand name in history of computers. I wouldnt put a Diablotek piece of hardware in my computer even if it was free.

Also, the more likely reason for that price is simply because its out of stock. If it was in stock, the price would probably be fixed.

If they were selling at that price, id seriously question their business strategy or hardware reliability. I guess they are refurbs though.

LOL just last week, I bought a used 5770 for ~$70.

IMO, worth the gamble. For $20, at the very worst, you get spare parts/heatsink/guinea pig GPU or an accessory to place on your desk/table, a chip to use as a keychain?

Diablotek is, IMO, a poor choice to name a brand but before anyone blasts them, they are benign compared to Bose, Monster Cable and others.

It's won't ever sell for that price, and if it does it would take a miracle for anyone here to get it before a really hardcore bitcoin miner.

Hell, I'd buy their entire stock at $17, even if I had to come up with $85,000 to do it.

 

[frostedflakes]

Lol.

Probably just a reference board, not much they can screw up as long as the heatsink actually works. Were any in stock earlier today? Heck of a deal if they were and orders actually went through at that price.

Holy [cow], count me in for four or ten of them when they come back in stock!

No profanity in the tech forums please

Holy crap, put myself down for auto-notify. Would definitely pick up a couple.

 

[Joseph F]

Same here. I could certainly use a 5850 Crossfire setup to upgrade my elderly 4850-512.

 

[hyrule4927]

Yeah, I just bought a 6850, but I would switch to two of these and sell that in a heartbeat, was planning on 6850 crossfire anyway.

Would probably try and sell some more to my friends for a profit.

 

[Joseph F]

Fo'shizzle.

 

[Rambusted]

Yeah I dunno guys I'm with fallengod I don't think i would put that in my pc for free.

 

[Don Karnage]

You couldn't pay me to buy diablotech

 

[Smartazz]

I highly doubt they'd sell a 5850 so cheap, even if it is a horrible brand.

 

[zokudu]

It has a full gallery of pictures. Don't those only show up when newegg has it in their hands so they can take the pictures? I assume they only ever had/ever will have 1 of these and it has been sold.

This! If they don't work, then I'll RMA them with Newegg. However, I expect an in-stock notification to coincide with a 400% price increase
