I want to upgrade my daughter's GPU from a RX 5700 XT to a RX 6900 XT or RX 6950 XT GPU. Shipped to 91320 (SoCal), or can pickup in the greater Ventura County and Los Angeles areas as well (if I can test/benchmark the card). The GPU must only require 2 x 8-pin PCI-E cables from the PSU (that the Seasonic Focus GX-750 PSU has). No real brand preference, and don't require the original box. Let me know what you have. I have a few PC parts that could be used as a partial trade as well, that are listed below.
PC parts that I own that could be used as a partial trade (if you want photos with timestamps let me know and I will include that here, or will PM you):
1. ASUS ROG STRIX Radeon RX 5700 XT (8 GB). Comes with the retail box. Works perfect.
2. PowerColor Red Dragon AMD Radeon RX 580 (8 GB). No retail box. Works perfect.
3. G.SKill Ripjaws S5
DDR5-6800 CL34-45-45-108 1.40V 32GB (2x16GB) Intel XMP - F5-6800J3445G16GX2-RS5K DIMMs (Kit). Bought here but never tested (as I don't have a DDR5 mboard). It is a matching pair, in the retail clamshell. Should work.
4. Corsair VENGEANCE LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4-3600 DIMMs (Kit). Comes with retail box. Works fine.
5. 3 x Intel Engineering Sample (ES) Intel LGA-1700 socket (65W TDP, DDR4 or DDR5 RAM) CPU's, all contain an iGPU, including 2 x QXQ3 (ES), which is around a i9-12700 equivalent, but with the CPU lanes missing and reduced clock speeds (10 to 15% slower), and 1 x QXQ4 (ES), which is around a i7-12700 equivalent CPU, but with the CPU lanes missing, and reduced clock speeds (10 to 15% slower). The QXQ3 is an engineering sample (ES) of the Intel Core i9-12900 processor. It features 16 cores and 24 threads, with a base clock speed of 1.2 GHz. The QXQ4 is an engineering sample (ES) of the Intel Core i7-12700 processor. It features 12 cores and 20 threads, with a base clock speed of 4.0 GHz. All ES CPU's have been tested on MSI MAG Z690 Tomahawk motherboard (with the retail BIOS) and operate fine using the iGPU, with no instability after stress testing them; great for virtualization (virtual machine hosting), home NAS, and video transcoding. Bought here. Note: These 3 x ES CPUs are missing the CPU lanes, and can't utilize the first (primary) PCI-Express slot with a GPU video card, so they aren't great for gaming. A GPU video card (if you don't want to use the iGPU) can be installed in any of the other PCI-E slots, that isn't the top first (primary) slot, which aren't directly connected to the CPU, they are connected through the Z690 chipset, and will work with these ES CPUs, and the same thing goes for the NVME M.2 slots.
6. 1 x 16 GB SK Hynix 16GB 2RX8 DDR4 SO-DIMM PC4-21300 2666MHZ Memory Module HMA82GS6JJR8N-VK. Tested working.
7. 2 x 2 GB Samsung 1Rx8 DDR3 SO-DIMM PC3-12800S 1600MHZ Memory Modules. Untested, but should work.
8. Fanatec Porsche 918 RSR Sim Racing Steering Wheel, with upgraded magnetic shifter paddles (the original are not magnetic), with the carrying bag and the original retail box. Only used for a handful of hours, so it is in perfect condition. Tested, works great.
9. ASUS RT-AC1900 (T-Mobile branded) WiFi router. Tested.
10. PayPal.
11. A few Costco Shop cards, that add up to near the value of a 6900xt card, if it is a local sale.
12. Venmo, PayPal, or Zelle, for local sale (after I can see the video card stress tested / benchmarked locally).
