Fair price for a GPU?

    I'm selling my old GPU to my friend who is buying his first PC (which I'm going to build for free)
    I'm wondering what's a fair price to sell it for?

    GPU:
    Sapphire HD 7870 XT Boost
    Age: 1 year
    Condition: Same as when I got it
    Performance w/3570k 4.5GHZ:
    Battlefield 4 Ultra: 40+ FPS , 77-85*C
    Arma 3 singleplayer: 35-40+ FPS, 77-85*C
    Planetside 2: Locked at 60FPS, 75*C-80*C

    Before I overclocked to 4.5GHZ, the FPS was about 5FPS less for all the games besides Arma 3. That got a boost of 5-15 FPS depending on the situation. Arma 3 is badly optimised too.

    I'm thinking €150. I got it for €225. I don't want to overprice it though.
    Please help me out here :)

    TBH around €110-€120, you can buy them new on adverts for €140-€150.

    I just checked for prices on a 280 (7950 equivalent - your chip is almost as fast as a 7950). Cheapest ones about 180 euro. Which means 120 is about a fair price for your GPU. 110 - 120 sounds good to me too.

    Thanks. I'll sell it for 120.
