Upgraded my Sapphire Nitro + 6800 XT to a Red Devil 6900 XT Ultimate for $50 This is on air @ 1125mv with a slightly modified fan profile https://www.3dmark.com/spy/28585113

I've had mixed results with MPT it was great for benching but I couldn't get any kind of 24/7 clocks out of it.

I'd love to find a Nitro+ 6900XT but at current prices my 6800XT will have to do.

Mine works fine too.

Yep just like motherboards. I've bought several open box items from them. They have a test bench in store if they don't find a problem with it then it will likely be put back up for sale with a yellow sticker on it. I'm not sure what the exact process is but I do know they sell all manor of...

You have 30 days so open it decide which one you want to keep then return or sell the other one. If you return it opened someone else gets it for a slight discount. Win Win Microcenter makes money either way.

And how much was said card going for because you probably saved yourself some money by making a trade.

I bet they don't have any. Their inventory system is not accurate. If it says they have 10 or more you have a good chance of finding one on the shelf. The day I got the Red Devil it wasn't showing any in stock on line.

Well like said in the first place I only paid a little over $500 out of pocket. So no biggie but I probably wouldn't have bought it if I had to pay the full price. Besides it's gone to a good home courtesy of ebay. And no I didn't charge scalper prices. I just about broke even with MSRP after...

$1100 but It only cost me $565 with an exchange for my 2080 and a 2yr in house warranty.

Look what I found on the shelf at microcenter! They had 4 left as of 5:30 pm Madison heights, MI.

@IKV1476 You lucky bastard! I don't know about the bent fins mine are a little off I guess but you really can't tell unless you're looking for it or taking high res pics,

In case anybody is wondering the Nitro + SE totally fits inside a Corsair Crystal 280X micro ATX case with about a 1/2 in. to spare.

I wanted the Powercolor but I ended up with a Sapphire Nitro + SE the bling factor is on point if your an RGB fan. It's also a beast of a card and runs pretty damn cool for how much it ways. It's definitely a lot lighter than some of the other cards.
