I already have a identical card make by another manufacturer -lrb- gigabyte -rrb- . I want to try crossfire with my exist card , just for the hell of it -lrb- I can run most game in ultra setting -rrb- . however , because of how fast these card get sell out on other retailer site and how the manufacturer do not make they anymore , it be nearly impossible until I decide to search it on Amazon . I must say that its availability despite be open box be astonishing . also know how much effort Amazon put in with open box item , I order it without hesitation . I get the item in Amazon 's box , not the manufacturer but this be not a problem . I receive everything from the original box content , include cable , free dirt game , manufacturer driver disc , and the manual . if you be also look for this card for crossfire with you exist 6950\/70 card , I highly recommend it . FYI , this card also have the bio mode 1 and mode 2 switch on the card for you to flash it with 6970 driver , in order to unlock additional shader on the 6950 card . I do not do it on this card as I do try it on my other card previously , but due to heat level and how I do not have a issue with run game revert it back . although the price be pretty much the same as its retail price would go if it be available as a new item online , I do not mind it as it be nearly impossible to find these card . have fun and thanks Amazon .
