With the release of the gtx 1070 being tomorrow I would like to sell my gtx 980. I have had it for about 4 months perfect condition, original packaging, and never overheated.

How much could I sell it for? I was hoping $300 if not what is a good reasonable price in which it would sell decently fast?

Thanks in advance!

The RX 480 is expected to have equivalent performance to a gtx 980, its the new midrange card. So it wouldn't be an upgrade, just a sidestep. And on that note, I don't think you'll be able to sell a used 980 for $300, given that someone could get a new 480 for $200 in two and a half weeks.

So sell it within the next two weeks if you're going to, because you definitely wont be able to in three weeks.
I've seen deals in stores like this one:

so think you're in the right ballpark.
 
I have a question for anybody who sees this.

Should I go with the gtx 1070 priced at $379 or the AMD RX480 priced at $199? I not really worried about price but I just want more for the amount paid. So which one would you reccomend?
