This has to be the best deal so far. Sold for $700. LOT OF APPROX. 15 GAMING CASES INC. ALIENWARE, ANTEC, COOLER MASTER, CORSAIR AND OTHERS - Able Auctions
From what I know Alienware never made computer cases so I bet there is a full PC inside the box.

Got this email today: Quote:
I’m reaching out because you either bought or expressed interest in the Gigabyte RX 570 cards I had last time.
I’ve got some more GPUs available, but this time they are even better.
NVIDIA recently developed a new card specifically for mining – it’s based on the same GPU as the GTX 1070, but with GDDR5X memory just like the GTX 1070 Ti!
SPECS
GPU: P104
RAM: 4GB GDDR5X
MH/s: 34 stock, 38-42 OC
Warranty: 90 days
Price: $750 US Dollars (including tax)
I can get HUNDREDS of these cards by early April, but if you want them I need pre-payment up front.
Those of you who dealt with me last time have been to our warehouse, and know that we’re 100% above-board.
For those of you who didn’t, you’re more than welcome to come check out our operation. Just email me back and I’ll arrange a meeting.
The cards look like this: https://i.imgur.com/Q5nDvJL.jpg EXCEPT they do not have video outputs because they are designed solely for mining.
