Hey everyone,

I just upgraded to RX Vega 64 so that means my previous RX580 needs a new home!  I would love to give this to a person that NEEDS this and I would also love it if you would be using it in our upcoming VLAN!

To enter simply reply with your system specs and I will announce the winner tomorrow after 5PM CST.  I will cover shipping and send you a PM.

To the admins:  If this isn't allowed, please delete the post, I wasn't able to find rules anywhere on the forums that it isn't (maybe I didn't look hard enough?).

To be sure a great pay-it-forward gift.

Apparently Gamer's have a tendency to "second string" their wives. (Guilty).

She almost always gets my hand downs rather than new.

Your generous gift would be of a great benefit to the both of us.

Hey jamesc359  congratulations sir, I will be shipping you the RX 580!  Check your inbox for a private message from me.

Thanks for the rest of you for participating.  See you around!

[jamesc359]

Thank you! I really appreciate your generosity. People like you are what makes the AMD community so awesome!

[kc5vdj]

congrats! that card will definitely do ya!

[spinalfailed]

That was incredibly generous of you! I have to say I do love the blue of that Special Edition!   Congrats jamesc359​! I have 2 of the 580 Nitro+ 8gb (non pretty blue versions), well I used 1 in a pay it forward build and they are fantastic GPU's! Sooooo, uhhhhh, do you prefer black?

[jamesc359]

Thanks for the congrats. Wait, you're offering me a black one too? Joking aside, I can't trade it. The blue is too purty to let go of. Besides, I licked it, so it's mine now.

[karamia]

LOL.  So what flavor is that color?

[jamesc359]

It's kind of a cross between metallic and yuck.

[karamia]

Need salt?

[jamesc359]

Yes! Yes it does! lol

[spinalfailed]

It's cool I don't mind a little taste test! You're sure you don't want the black version? I mean it's so much easier to color match black into ANY color scheme! 

[jamesc359]

True, black is easier to match, but black isn't unique or special. I can tell you really want this card though, that makes me want it even more! I wonder is that the endowment effect or is it because the card is now a positional good?

[spinalfailed]

Honestly none of the above. I'm just messing with you. I do like the look of the blue but currently for me it doesn't fit in any of my builds. Had I really wanted it I would have bought it in blue a few months back when I bought the black ones.  They are great cards and in incredibly happy with the purchase!  And if I ever start to hate it I have an XFX 570 in a box I can play around with! 

[jamesc359]

I know. I was going to mess with you back, but I figured that telling you the color didn't matter because I intended on painting the shroud and back plate NVidia green would've been too brazen.

[spinalfailed]

Ehh A long time ago AMD actually was green so it's not that sacrilegious! Plus while I prefer Team Red I have products from blue and green as well.

[kc5vdj]

Are you saying that Ruby isn't a REAL redhead?

[jamesc359]

Ruby started with ATI, so she comes by her hair color naturally. That said, I've never seen a natural green head.

[blazek]

Very generous of you mate

[kcssarge]

First time on AMD FORUM. I am building a system as monies become available. I. Am down to the Graphics card and case I hope I win this to complete it. My last system gave up the ghost after deployment.

The opportunity being provided by you is a rare gem in my eye. Thank you for letting me participate
