Does any body collect graphics card?

Collect as in keep old ones and not sell on? or buy random gfx cards?

I give my old ones to the nephew. No need to let them gather dust it hurts the OCD in me.
 
I tend to give away all my old hardware, but at the moment of writing this i have:

2 x 7970s
2 x 7850s
1 x 660
1 x 6850
3 x 5450
1 x 5670
1 x 7900GTX

And a GF100 and GF104 core sitting in my room waiting for me to drill a hole.
I guess you could say i "collect" the cards, as that's a few more than i thought, most are in computers scattered around the house/being used and the others are either in a room upstairs waiting to be fitted or in a box.

Sounds like my house.:D

I normally give my old stuff away as well.
 
850xt
7800gt
8800gtx
4850
460
570
7850
7950

I don't really collect them, just chuck them in a box when i get a new one. Only the 7850 and 7950 are being used atm.
 
I either sell them or give them away if they are old. I try to keep one spare as a backup just in case though.
 
Current collection! Although some will be shifted when I can be bothered.

1x 690 was 2 but sold one on.
4x 7970's
2x 6970's
1x 580
1x 5850

Some other little bits & bats.
 
Got an ATi 3450 in case my 480 goes pop.


Suddenly remembered, my Z77 D3H has its own graphics processor. What would be better out of the two? I expect it'll be the 3450.

Are they being used?! If not, you have SO much money just sitting there... I'd sell the 1x690, 590s, 5970s + 7970s !
