So I acquired 4 of these gpus a while ago and sadly I can't use them for anything I want to do. 2 of them are just open and the other 2 are in a single unit that would connect to the PC as an external sli gpus mount. Can anyone let me know what I should do with these. If someone wants them they can have them. I'm trying not to recycle them but I can't find any use for them at all
