You asked for a name? How about "Obsolete trashbox"?! :D Anything that can't hit 0.1% lows over 240fps in quake champions is trash. Even my own Ryzen 5 5600X. It's horrible in unholy trinity against quake pros on deep embrace. Even the sound starts to stutter eventually. I learned the hard way to stop looking at average frame rates. It's utterly trash to evaluate performance.
Even 6 months ago. I picked up an Asus Strix RTX 3060 Ti OC, for $650 back in March of this year. It's a solid card, but man, that was still pretty high for that level of GPU.
@@Gamevet Wanted a 3060ti or 3070 for the longest time but couldn't bring myself to pay those ridiculous prices, just picked up a barely used 6900 xt for 450 dollars though pretty excited to see how it performs.
@@eduardofromwiisportsresort9636 I needed a new laptop anyway, so when the GPU draught hit I bought a 3070 laptop, and did my heavy gaming on that. I will probably replace my current desktop with a 7900xt or maybe a 4080 in the next few months.
Was helping a friend sell off his 3070's from his mining rigs...I had 10 3070's practically new in box on my table in a huge pile at time, sold around 40 total...it was surreal after going what we went though in the last few years. I took a FTW3 ultra for myself when it was all over. That thing is a monster...compared to what I have had to settle for over the last few years.
6:29 Next to the Rx6700xt in that empty space was a Reference model of Rx6900xt for only $500. I bought it on Thursday. :D Glad to see you were also able to pick up some awesome deals from Dospara. Love the video

I found a 3080 for less than $300 in Europe. Fully working Zotac Amp Holo. Very clean also. Could not believe it. Told to seller I will test it and after testing it many times in many shops, they all told me it works perfectly. I could not believe my ears. Bought it.
Damn, that is nice. Used deals over here in germany are sadly usually pretty bad. Often times buying new is price competitive. Really weird. I hope that changes at some point :P
yeah agree, in germany its pretty much better paying a lil extra to get new if possibile rn waiting for black friday to MAYBE get a 3060ti around 350-400euros hopefully
Same in Denmark. There is little point in buying used, especially considering how many idiots and scammers you have to wade through to actually finalize a purchase for most avenues of purchase.
@@NATIK001 yeah, its funny to me how ebay allows so many obvious scams on their site (there are some really good deals, but the pictures are taken from google, the seller doesn't have any prior sells, and return isnt allowed) so if you get a dead card ebay can't do anything to help you because it straight up says no return policy, so i would never buy a used gpu off ebay UNLESS its from a reputable seller that has a return policy should something be wrong with the product
Well, on "Ebay Kleinanzeigen" ("Ebay Kijiji"?) the Radeon RX 6700XT has come down over 200€ in the last months in Germany. I haven't bought anything on regular Ebay for many years as hardware is being pushed up ridiculously by bidders and bots.
That 3080 was a great deal. Really, wow. Awesome work! Cheaper then any in the US. That exchange rate is awesome at the moment. I would have gladly bought the the 3080 you got in a heartbeat at that price!
Boxing it all up & paying excess baggage fee at the airport is one approach but one may find oneself arguing with customs that this is personal as opposed to commercial quantity (dutiable). Excess baggage + import duties.. suddenly not so cheap..
As always, nice content. UK used prices still at 50% more than far east. I kinda see why, but I just wish they would fall a bit quicker. You would have thought that with the mining situation that prices would be a lot lower with the influx of cards. I'm still not willing to pay £750-850, UK, for a card that potentially could have been flogged to death. I'll stick with my 2080ti and my 3070ti for now.
What are you talking about the used GPU prices in the UK are by far the chepest in Europe, cant imagine how nice it must be to live in the UK because shiping to europe is usualy around 80eur from UK, but its still cheper than buying locally.
A lot of miners legit in denial is why, and refuse to sell their cards, saying that mining is "dormant" or some shyte, and that the cards will be worth keeping. Just a matter of time til they can finally accept that it's over, and a question of how they handle it: sell or literally commit suicide (some of these people are VERY invested). World's biggest and saddest poker game just ended, and some people got other people's money.

@@ibobeko4309 Seriously? A 140W CPU is a dealbreaker? I guess if you are on an extreme budget, it could be some kind of concern. Personally, I am just an Intel HEDT enthusiast, so I have an X58 rig as my HTPC, an X99 utility rig for general usage, and an X299 rig as my main. I'm missing X79 from a collector's standpoint to round out the lineup, but I will fill that in when time and good deals permit. I probably won't ever get a Xeon W-3175 rig to complete the Intel HEDT collection, but I like the classic HEDT line because it is way more interesting than Ryzen to play with, especially for overclocking. Maybe get yourself a Celeron or Sempron rig of some kind, if wattage is your main concern.
@@username8644 You have higher clocks *at stock speeds*. I run my 1660 v3 at 4.6GHz. But if you want to talk X299, I run an i9-9900X in my main, clocked to 4.8GHz. I'd rather have nice OCing headroom with ten cores than have to run 18 cores more slowly. An i9-9900X is a perfect all-around chip for any task. I mean, I'm not living under a bridge eating dry Ramen noodles, so the wattage doesn't really matter at all to me. You might as well tell a muscle car enthusiast that their classic Corvette is crap because they could drive a more efficient Ford Fiesta, or tell a Great Dane owner that their dog is crap since they could get a more efficient Chihuahua. It's a silly argument to make, since they are just different things for different preferences. Great Danes, classic Corvettes, and the i7 5960X are all terrific and a lot of fun.
I have that exact same vega 64 strix edition, bought 3 years ago when they were giving end of production discount. It served me well. It was worth choosing over the 2060. The idle power usage (due to HBM 2) is unbelievably low. Thanks to that I can run my PC during short power cuts on inverter battery. It happens atleast 3-4 times a week where I live. According to Hardware unboxed testing it is still giving the 3060 a run for its money. GCN was truly fine wine.
i had vega 64 liquid cooling version, what a card it was... superb cooling , nice performance, crazy oc numbers also incredible design, when mining heaven started i sold it for nearly 700 usd, now with that money im in hunt for for used 6900xt - 3090's with still in warranty period. sad i have to change my good old r7 1700 for new gpu, im thinking a r5 5600. i still miss my vega 64 lc, greatest design i have ever seen

Looked on eBay for used gpu’s and everything was not even close to these prices. Guess the good deals are on the auction listing vs BuyItNow which is how I usually buy random stuff
+Tech YES City I know, it's a "forbidden topic" but it would have been really interesting for us consumers if you would explain a little bit how you get these parts to Europe. Especially Import taxes and customs service would be a interesting topic, especially if someone decides to buy parts for himself while being on holiday ...
I'm getting back into PC gaming, having to learn some of the new tech, but I definitely enjoy not only watching your videos but trusting you when it comes to what I should buy and/or look out for. Thank you for your knowledge!!
Insanely good deals. My eyes tear up with joy whenever you go in these parts hunt, I can only dream of doing that someday but the economy of my country does not allow it and will never allow it, stores with these used or new parts don't even exist. I'm so envious of you in these super fun videos. Can't wait to see the next ultra budget build.
Nice video. Very interesting point about pricing on Ryzen CPUs. If it wasn’t for the fact that I do a lot of video encoding I would be interested but this is one area where Intel has AMD soundly beaten, hardware video encoding.
Very true. AMD is a nightmare to do any video editing or encoding. The amount of (known) issues they have is insane, and everytime they fix one, another 3 pop up 😂 Really good everywhere else tho.
@@atticushexcel9567 You can get one or two weekly drops on some sites here for the 4090. Not perfect but also not bad. And I think the official release of the 4080 and the closer we come to the 4070 release, the prices will drop hard.
@@Ultrajamz depends what kind of performance you're looking for, if it's just 1440p with med to high setting than a 3080ti would be pretty good but if its 4k gaming then i'd suggest you wait for the 40 series to become available or just wait for rdna3
I wouldn't call that dirt cheap. They are low end to mid range last gen (or even the gen before) and years old by now. Not just that they are also used. These prices are what should be a sensible market price for unused ones by this point.
About 7-8 years ago, I needed/wanted a Quadro card for my rig at a time when such cards brand new were way out of my price range. So, I got a used K2000D off ebay for around $200USD. Still rockin' that baby in my system as I type this along with the used cpu I got off of ebay as well when I upgraded from an i5 to an i7 (sold the i5 on ebay to help fund it). However, all this was before mining took over and now I am scared to buy anything unseen.
I got my Palit 3060ti about a month ago for like $220 locally. The seller has a test bench and a few popular testing apps like Furmark, Unigine Valley, and Kombustor (extremely useful) so you can pick whatever model (usually higher end model have a markup for like $20-50 compare to the more common and cheap one) you want from the seller stockpile (all ex-mining, with okay/ready-to-use exterior cleaning, no repaste or something because losing the void sticker might void your warranty as it still has warranty left from the original distributor). That DDR5 kit is probably a Micron-rebranded, it is looks like Micron chips. Also Micron currently have the best DRAM chip price out there because they already switched to 14nm, die size is smaller, so they can make out more chip from a wafer. Performance might not be the best (Micron kit usually cheap and loose timing and it take more voltage to do what Hynix and Samsung can do), but they are cheap af.
Don't forget the CPUs, most people are watching the GPUs being dumped by miners, but they've also dumped a metric ton of CPUs over the past few months, mostly garbage, but there's also a lot of AMD Zen3. If you're looking for a budget solution to get you through to a new build, you can grab them pretty cheap, just make sure to inspect the pins when you get them. 3600 (both the standard and X variant) were obviously a favorite for miners because of the cheap combo deals that were on Amazon and Newegg (gee I wonder why). A little dated, sure, but if we're talking used, yeah we're not caring about that too much. They're still decent chips, long as you're not pairing it with like a 3070 or above, any bottlenecking in gaming should be minimal or non-existent.
Xfx Qick 308 6600xt for $180. Upgrading my little brother from a 5500xt I paid $200 for 18 months ago(avg sale price at the time was $400). Glad prices are back to earth!!
@@budgetking2591 It is in perfect shape and I was even able to register it for warranty. I don't think it was ever actually used as all the protective film was still on it🤣
Wow. I wish we had such "Junk Paradise" and "Dospara" stores here in the US. There's nothing of the sort here. I don't know of a single (physical) store that sells used GPUs.
Interesting find in the 5960x. I thought to get the best out of it you have to get one of the decent original motherboard that support decent overclocking and quad channel memory which tend to be expensive to find. Are you finding the same or are you going to go with a modern knock off (which doesn't have the same heat sinks and doesn't always support quad channel memory) ?
@@rmgaminguk7079 I ordered it from Aliexpress, it is made specifically for this motherboard, it came with thermal pads, I installed it in 10 minutes, there was an instruction on the product page
Thanks for the heads up on second hand card quality, I've been considering buying a GPU for awhile on ebay. Some cards you see the condition and their rusty etc and I think nah give that a miss.
told who lol? anyone thats been around the GPU market has seen crypto do this 4 other times when the crypto goes bust and cards flood the market at cheap prices. Its not a "told you" cause your stating the obvious like the Sun rising in the sky the next day.
You can come to Thailand. There is lot of 3060ti, 3070, 3080 at bargain price. I just got a PNY 3080 10G at USD260. I change the thermal paste, replace some pads. Furmark 69C (Ambient 29C), Time Spy 16K ish
Hey next time you're in Japan, hit up GOODWILL. I used to shop there in Okinawa, and the prices for NEW STUFF were absolutely bonkers (as in good). I just subscribed. I love window shopping, and if you have the quid, walking around Akihabara is such an experience. Also, Yodobashi-Umeda in Osaka is amazing.
The 3080 was a great deal! I would have been tempted to buy one but this week AMD will let us know more about RDNA3 let's wait and see. Love this content!
Maybe the used price for RTX 3080 could be in that range by the end of this year. I'm hoping for $400 for used RTX 3080 cards soon; the cards are like 2 years old now.
@@azsampako2266 I hope you're wrong, even though the pricing for the RTX 4080 & 4090 is laughable. New Radeon cards might cause Nvidia to lower the prices for the new RTX cards. I seriously hope common folks are not willing to buy GPUs for the new Nvidia pricing, thereby forcing Nvidia to lower the prices extensively. If the majority of miners are about to get rid of their stock of used RTX 3080 cards by the end of the year, and if we assume that there's an astronomic supply of used RTX 3080 cards going to flood the marked, $400 may not be that unreasonable? If the majority of people start buying used GPUs, this will send a strong signal to Nvidia to get back to earth in terms of pricing.
@@GAG091186 Why are you and the "common folk" complaining about Nvidia pricing on their higher model GPU's when you and the "common folk" are not able to afford it and these cards shouldn't be on you all radar? Nvidia have new/old Generations of their lower tier and mid tier GPU's for the "common folk" to choose from. Heck, the custom PC market isn't for the "common folk". Where have you heard about miners getting rid of their 3080's? Miners are removing their older GPU's off of their mining rigs and keeping their newer cards until the next crypto to mine. It's a bad business decision for a miner to offload their investment when the future is unclear at this moment. From what's happening in our economy, the wars, the slow down in manufacturing, and the inflation/recession/possibly depression it would be foolish for miners to get rid of their cards and sell their 3080's for cheap to possibly be back at square one buying those same GPU's in the used market for more if the crypto market decides to boom again. Manufacturing are not producing large orders, retailers are holding back product, and people are not spending like they were last year regardless if these items are on the used market. These 3000 series cards are not going anywhere no time soon. Why do you think Nvidia is updating their 3060/3060 Ti and most likely their 3070? Why do you think that there's hardly any new 4090's in stock at retailers? But if wishful thinking is the only thing that you're going on, good luck!
Rest of the world: “GPU prices are shockingly lowwww!” The UK: “Best I can do is a 5700XT for £200 and 3090s for less than 3080s but still vaguely above MSRP.” As for the RTX A2000, it actually performs on par with a 3060, despite the roughly 70w max power draw.
with respect to what? Shit MSRPs? They were retarded to begin with. Price of a 3080 should have been much lower than 1080, let alone more expensive. Dirt cheap silicon is appreciating in price since 2017 lol. Now that the mining bullshit is over, no point in chasing. I am confident each of those chips(3060 3070 or 3080 blah blah) regardless of binning, cost them at most 100$.
I found a 3060 in a dumpster in Germany, looked very dirty and bad, cleaned it completely repasted it changed thermal pads, and to my surprise it works perfectly. Stress test it and no issues. Now in my main rig from a 1050 ti.
The RTX 3060 ti takes the cake for me, such a good price. I hope, that this is only the beginning for the consumers heaven after the horrendous years we have been through.
Would like to warn some of you guys: I noticed that some ebay listing for graphics from Japan are actually from sites like Mercari, PayPay Flea Market (Yahoo Shopping) and HardOFF (A thrift store, basically) and they simply take the images from those sites and post it on ebay and also upsell them for higher. For example, I found a 3070ti from HardOFF at 99,000 jpy (around 1,060AUD) and I searched the title of the listing on HardOFF on Ebay and found duplicate copies of the SAME photo from HardOFF but at a higher price (2,000AUD, that's DOUBLE the price!) than the initial price on HardOFF. So if you're looking for some used stuff from Japan, you might wanna use a parcel forwarder or personal shopper to buy it from you and ship it overseas instead of Ebay ripping you off.
Got myself a 960 and a 970 for secondary PCs. 60 and 80 $ assuming the sellers don't cancel the sale like usually happens a lot with graphic cards on ebay.
You can get similar prices, but the shipping prices becomes an issue. At the same time, an airline ticket to Tokyo just for pc parts is a bit overkill too
I was stationed at a major USAF hospital in 1971 that is now at Tachikawa. We used to take the train to Akihabara all the time to look at interesting deals. They had everything electronics back then too. In '71 we had the introduction of the electronic calculator. That's right, for about $450 USD you could get a device that did addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. If you wanted the slightly better model that had square root, they were a pricey $650. This was almost 2 months pay for us as an Airman First Class so we were just looking :) The main attraction for us was the Sony and TDK stores an their sales girls.
unrelated, but i really want your thoughts. do you think am5 boards are expensive because mobo makers feel they were screwed by amd? i mean those $50 b450 boards had so many bios updates. firmware programming is not cheap. i dont think they made any money. maybe am5 boards are expensive because makers expect similar expenses down the line?
You make a good point. Motherboard OEM's also didn't realize AMD would extend longevity of x370/b350 as long as they did. Which is great for AMD, but bad for motherboard guys.
@@dondraper4438 oh yes. youre right. b350 / x370 were made to support everything too. thats even more work than b450 boards. so current am5 mobos will have to support at least 3 years. thats longer than $1000 phones.
I'm sitting on 60+ RTX 3060's V1 Founders Editions that I bought from an ex-mining operation. Paid $150 each. I had around 70+ but sold 10 or so in the last few days on Faceook marketplace. I was told a few of them have bad fans but the seller lost track of which ones they were. I'm testing each one before I sell it. How hard is it to change a fan out on a RTX 3060 FE? Total cost of all of the cards was $10,500 but I traded him a 2003 Suzuki Hayabusa, Helmet. for $5,800 toward my balance. I had to pay around $4,800 out of pocket. Had it been spring or early summer, I wouldn't have bought them as PC usage and demand sinks in warmer weather. Sold 10 in about 6 days anywhere from 225 to 250 each. Hope to profit around $4000+ once they are all sold. What are used RTX 3060s going for in your country. I am not interested at all in getting stuck with these so I think $225 to 250 is a price that will help me sell them quickly. To be honest, I am not getting as much interest as I thought I would.
Just curious but how much do you expect GPU prices to drop on the used market over the next 6 to 9 months as the new models come out with there not being a mining craze this time around? I'm hoping Spring-Summer 2023 (at the earliest at least) I could easily get something good to upgrade from my GTX 1070 Strix such as a RTX 2070 Super/2080 or RX 6600 XT, maybe even a RTX 3060 Ti if lucky enough for $250 Canadian (looking at google currently for exchange rate, would be like 27016 Yen) + up to $25 Canadian (like 2701 Yen) shipping from wherever so $275 Canadian (like 29712 Yen) shipped to match what I paid for my 1070 Strix at the end of September/Start of October 2020. Assuming a 20% price drop between now and then (assuming no major exchange rate changes to stay roughly the same) looking at current prices would be like $312.50 Canadian (like 33770 Yen, or in USD like $229) - 20% = $250 Canadian (29712 Yen, or like 183 USD).
Just looked at local market and you're right. 1660 super from 220 to 140€, 5700xt at 200€. New GPU market is still stagnating with minor cuts in price.
I wish we still had shops like that here. It used to be so cool going hardware shopping. We also used to have a pc dump day with a big congress centre hall FULL of hardware new and 2nd hand. Now it's all online and it's boring and it sucks.

UK prices for ryzen 5000 series are incredibly volatile. Two months ago the 5600X was about £200 and occasionally a little lower. Two weeks ago it was £350. Today it's £170. 5700X and 5800X are both available for £250 and the 5800X3D is £350. A couple of months ago I was able to pick up a 5600X, B550 MSI Pro ATX and 16G DDR4 3600 for under £350. At the time a 12400F system, once you factor in the MB and memory, was far more expensive and it's difficult to see any reason to build on a 7600X or 7700X (though these are both already being discounted to £330 and £430).
There's an over supply of everything right now. When I have a 23% VAT in Portugal and can get a brand new RX6600M from AliExpress for less than 185€, something is definitely up. And I just checked, local market has brand new in box Ryzen 5 5500 for 100€.
I love my VEGA's. The STRIX VEGA64 for $130 is definitely my favorite. I recently picked up a 6900XT Trio X/Z for $630 brand new with a $380 13700K to go with it. Loving the states right now.
I've found the best time to buy a used GPU is either a month after a launch of a new series OR between january and may as people offload their old GPUs after upgrading during the holidays or use tax return money to upgrade and also offload their old GPUs.
A VERY GOOD condition of that 1156 motherboard!!! I've just built the X3470 empowered pc. Slightly oc'ed,but it's with the liquid cooled cpu,so,i'll be waiting for another round of 1156 Xeon overclocking !!!!
So I have a choice to make. Neighbour of mine has a Ryzen 9 5950x for $650 canadian or I could buy a Ryzen 7 5800x3d new for $475. Which one for my next build?
Here in Brazil my cousin got an used RX 6700XT for 2000 BRL (376 usd), which is less than 1/4th of what it cost new a year ago (and cheaper than a brand new 3060 right now). Not to mention it was in surprisingly pristine condition, and the owner bought it 6 months ago so it's not even old.
I loved to go to Akihabara... an electronics paradise.... one day maybe I'll be there again.... only a few hours away from where I live, Thailand... I checked the P55 motherboard, but the specs said that this motherboard only supports DDR3 RAM, so what do you do with that DDR5???
There are like a million 1060s and 580s suddenly materialising into every second hand market and stores being sold for less than 80$. Ofc these were probably mining cards. But I think they are fine.
@@ertai222 realistically thou i dknt think its rust. probably food or environmental splatter from sitting in an open air mining rig on a shelf in a moist attic or something. When aluminum alloy rusts its usually maintains its color while copper alloys lose their shine.
I live in sweden, sadly swedes did not get the memo that used gpu's don't sell for retail price. Altho they are starting to take notice, prices are decreasing finally. but not even close to 208$
Yeah prices in UK are still over the top. People paying what would be considered overpriced for a new card let alone a second hand GPU. People have no sense. They are spending upwards of £800-£1000 on a used GPU. That still have useless drivers.
hey man recently my Aorus 3060ti stopped working i cant get my pc to even recognize that it is plugged in my fan leds blink and turn off right away after I've tried everything i could (with my very limited knowledge) without opening my gpu could i possibly send it to you and have you check it out?
Man I miss akihabara, can't wait to get back. Buy More is awesome for new parts, got a low profile 1050ti there for about £70 a few years back (2018 iirc) , it's still going strong in my htpc.
Really looking forward to another video on the x99 platform. It has really come down in price recently. Would be interesting to know how it performs next to some modern budget cpus like the 12400f and also some contemporary cpus like the 4790k and 6700k.
We will have a POTATO banger coming with 1st gen, though 1st gen xeon with RTX 3050...? whoa? Yeah let's give it a go.

@@eduardofromwiisportsresort9636 I needed a new laptop anyway, so when the GPU draught hit I bought a 3070 laptop, and did my heavy gaming on that. I will probably replace my current desktop with a 7900xt or maybe a 4080 in the next few months.
Was helping a friend sell off his 3070's from his mining rigs...I had 10 3070's practically new in box on my table in a huge pile at time, sold around 40 total...it was surreal after going what we went though in the last few years.

A lot of miners legit in denial is why, and refuse to sell their cards, saying that mining is "dormant" or some shyte, and that the cards will be worth keeping.

@@ibobeko4309 Seriously? A 140W CPU is a dealbreaker? I guess if you are on an extreme budget, it could be some kind of concern. Personally, I am just an Intel HEDT enthusiast, so I have an X58 rig as my HTPC, an X99 utility rig for general usage, and an X299 rig as my main. I'm missing X79 from a collector's standpoint to round out the lineup, but I will fill that in when time and good deals permit. I probably won't ever get a Xeon W-3175 rig to complete the Intel HEDT collection, but I like the classic HEDT line because it is way more interesting than Ryzen to play with, especially for overclocking. Maybe get yourself a Celeron or Sempron rig of some kind, if wattage is your main concern.
@@username8644 You have higher clocks *at stock speeds*. I run my 1660 v3 at 4.6GHz. But if you want to talk X299, I run an i9-9900X in my main, clocked to 4.8GHz. I'd rather have nice OCing headroom with ten cores than have to run 18 cores more slowly. An i9-9900X is a perfect all-around chip for any task. I mean, I'm not living under a bridge eating dry Ramen noodles, so the wattage doesn't really matter at all to me. You might as well tell a muscle car enthusiast that their classic Corvette is crap because they could drive a more efficient Ford Fiesta, or tell a Great Dane owner that their dog is crap since they could get a more efficient Chihuahua. It's a silly argument to make, since they are just different things for different preferences. Great Danes, classic Corvettes, and the i7 5960X are all terrific and a lot of fun.
I have that exact same vega 64 strix edition, bought 3 years ago when they were giving end of production discount.
It served me well. It was worth choosing over the 2060. The idle power usage (due to HBM 2) is unbelievably low. Thanks to that I can run my PC during short power cuts on inverter battery. It happens atleast 3-4 times a week where I live.
According to Hardware unboxed testing it is still giving the 3060 a run for its money. GCN was truly fine wine.

I wouldn't call that dirt cheap. They are low end to mid range last gen (or even the gen before) and years old by now. Not just that they are also used. These prices are what should be a sensible market price for unused ones by this point.
Yeah I dunno wtf all the other comments are saying. These are all old, highly used mining cards.
About 7-8 years ago, I needed/wanted a Quadro card for my rig at a time when such cards brand new were way out of my price range. So, I got a used K2000D off ebay for around $200USD. Still rockin' that baby in my system as I type this along with the used cpu I got off of ebay as well when I upgraded from an i5 to an i7 (sold the i5 on ebay to help fund it). However, all this was before mining took over and now I am scared to buy anything unseen.
Wow i7 5960x😱
Finally Brian can build that with a budget or high end X99 mobo🤗
Old HEDT builds kick so much ass. I lose these x99, x199 builds.
I got my Palit 3060ti about a month ago for like $220 locally. The seller has a test bench and a few popular testing apps like Furmark, Unigine Valley, and Kombustor (extremely useful) so you can pick whatever model (usually higher end model have a markup for like $20-50 compare to the more common and cheap one) you want from the seller stockpile (all ex-mining, with okay/ready-to-use exterior cleaning, no repaste or something because losing the void sticker might void your warranty as it still has warranty left from the original distributor).
That DDR5 kit is probably a Micron-rebranded, it is looks like Micron chips. Also Micron currently have the best DRAM chip price out there because they already switched to 14nm, die size is smaller, so they can make out more chip from a wafer. Performance might not be the best (Micron kit usually cheap and loose timing and it take more voltage to do what Hynix and Samsung can do), but they are cheap af.
3060ti for 220 euro is not a thing here, they are like 350 used lol, can get decent deals on amd cards.
So envy that Japan got such bargain stores, in my country ppl selling used parts at a price like they're never outdated.

I just bought a factory sealed RTX 1070 founders edition for 100.00 can't complain does what I need it for
Don't forget the CPUs, most people are watching the GPUs being dumped by miners, but they've also dumped a metric ton of CPUs over the past few months, mostly garbage, but there's also a lot of AMD Zen3. If you're looking for a budget solution to get you through to a new build, you can grab them pretty cheap, just make sure to inspect the pins when you get them. 3600 (both the standard and X variant) were obviously a favorite for miners because of the cheap combo deals that were on Amazon and Newegg (gee I wonder why). A little dated, sure, but if we're talking used, yeah we're not caring about that too much. They're still decent chips, long as you're not pairing it with like a 3070 or above, any bottlenecking in gaming should be minimal or non-existent.
Also 80+titanium and 80+platinum with 9 years+ warranty for half price.
U should get that evga dual X58 board and run 2 X5690's at 5ghz ddr3 2133mhz to see if the ultimate X58 can run a 4090 in 2022
It can, but the bottleneck is gonna be terrible. Even a 9900k is kind of a bottleneck to a 4090.

@@azsampako2266 I hope you're wrong, even though the pricing for the RTX 4080 & 4090 is laughable. New Radeon cards might cause Nvidia to lower the prices for the new RTX cards. I seriously hope common folks are not willing to buy GPUs for the new Nvidia pricing, thereby forcing Nvidia to lower the prices extensively. If the majority of miners are about to get rid of their stock of used RTX 3080 cards by the end of the year, and if we assume that there's an astronomic supply of used RTX 3080 cards going to flood the marked, $400 may not be that unreasonable? If the majority of people start buying used GPUs, this will send a strong signal to Nvidia to get back to earth in terms of pricing.
@@GAG091186 Why are you and the "common folk" complaining about Nvidia pricing on their higher model GPU's when you and the "common folk" are not able to afford it and these cards shouldn't be on you all radar? Nvidia have new/old Generations of their lower tier and mid tier GPU's for the "common folk" to choose from. Heck, the custom PC market isn't for the "common folk".
Where have you heard about miners getting rid of their 3080's? Miners are removing their older GPU's off of their mining rigs and keeping their newer cards until the next crypto to mine. It's a bad business decision for a miner to offload their investment when the future is unclear at this moment.
From what's happening in our economy, the wars, the slow down in manufacturing, and the inflation/recession/possibly depression it would be foolish for miners to get rid of their cards and sell their 3080's for cheap to possibly be back at square one buying those same GPU's in the used market for more if the crypto market decides to boom again.
Manufacturing are not producing large orders, retailers are holding back product, and people are not spending like they were last year regardless if these items are on the used market.
These 3000 series cards are not going anywhere no time soon. Why do you think Nvidia is updating their 3060/3060 Ti and most likely their 3070? Why do you think that there's hardly any new 4090's in stock at retailers?
But if wishful thinking is the only thing that you're going on, good luck!

Would like to warn some of you guys:
I noticed that some ebay listing for graphics from Japan are actually from sites like Mercari, PayPay Flea Market (Yahoo Shopping) and HardOFF (A thrift store, basically) and they simply take the images from those sites and post it on ebay and also upsell them for higher.
For example, I found a 3070ti from HardOFF at 99,000 jpy (around 1,060AUD) and I searched the title of the listing on HardOFF on Ebay and found duplicate copies of the SAME photo from HardOFF but at a higher price (2,000AUD, that's DOUBLE the price!) than the initial price on HardOFF.
So if you're looking for some used stuff from Japan, you might wanna use a parcel forwarder or personal shopper to buy it from you and ship it overseas instead of Ebay ripping you off.
*exactly*
Got myself a 960 and a 970 for secondary PCs. 60 and 80 $ assuming the sellers don't cancel the sale like usually happens a lot with graphic cards on ebay.
Not bad I got a 1060 6gb for 89, I sniped it at the end of the bidding!

I was stationed at a major USAF hospital in 1971 that is now at Tachikawa. We used to take the train to Akihabara all the time to look at interesting deals. They had everything electronics back then too. In '71 we had the introduction of the electronic calculator. That's right, for about $450 USD you could get a device that did addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. If you wanted the slightly better model that had square root, they were a pricey $650. This was almost 2 months pay for us as an Airman First Class so we were just looking :) The main attraction for us was the Sony and TDK stores an their sales girls.
unrelated, but i really want your thoughts. do you think am5 boards are expensive because mobo makers feel they were screwed by amd? i mean those $50 b450 boards had so many bios updates. firmware programming is not cheap. i dont think they made any money. maybe am5 boards are expensive because makers expect similar expenses down the line?
You make a good point. Motherboard OEM's also didn't realize AMD would extend longevity of x370/b350 as long as they did.
Which is great for AMD, but bad for motherboard guys.
@@dondraper4438 oh yes. youre right. b350 / x370 were made to support everything too. thats even more work than b450 boards. so current am5 mobos will have to support at least 3 years. thats longer than $1000 phones.
Apparently the i7 5960x was the world's first 8-core CPU. Not sure if that is true. I'll have to check.
Clearly not. Bulldozers was
What do you generally look out for in a used gpu or mining gpu?
I'm sitting on 60+ RTX 3060's V1 Founders Editions that I bought from an ex-mining operation. Paid $150 each. I had around 70+ but sold 10 or so in the last few days on Faceook marketplace. I was told a few of them have bad fans but the seller lost track of which ones they were. I'm testing each one before I sell it. How hard is it to change a fan out on a RTX 3060 FE? Total cost of all of the cards was $10,500 but I traded him a 2003 Suzuki Hayabusa, Helmet. for $5,800 toward my balance. I had to pay around $4,800 out of pocket. Had it been spring or early summer, I wouldn't have bought them as PC usage and demand sinks in warmer weather. Sold 10 in about 6 days anywhere from 225 to 250 each. Hope to profit around $4000+ once they are all sold. What are used RTX 3060s going for in your country. I am not interested at all in getting stuck with these so I think $225 to 250 is a price that will help me sell them quickly. To be honest, I am not getting as much interest as I thought I would.
Just curious but how much do you expect GPU prices to drop on the used market over the next 6 to 9 months as the new models come out with there not being a mining craze this time around? I'm hoping Spring-Summer 2023 (at the earliest at least) I could easily get something good to upgrade from my GTX 1070 Strix such as a RTX 2070 Super/2080 or RX 6600 XT, maybe even a RTX 3060 Ti if lucky enough for $250 Canadian (looking at google currently for exchange rate, would be like 27016 Yen) + up to $25 Canadian (like 2701 Yen) shipping from wherever so $275 Canadian (like 29712 Yen) shipped to match what I paid for my 1070 Strix at the end of September/Start of October 2020. Assuming a 20% price drop between now and then (assuming no major exchange rate changes to stay roughly the same) looking at current prices would be like $312.50 Canadian (like 33770 Yen, or in USD like $229) - 20% = $250 Canadian (29712 Yen, or like 183 USD).
buy nothing below a 3060ti.... all others cards below it just won't be worth it...or even 3070ti for like 300
Just looked at local market and you're right. 1660 super from 220 to 140€, 5700xt at 200€. New GPU market is still stagnating with minor cuts in price.
I wish we still had shops like that here. It used to be so cool going hardware shopping. We also used to have a pc dump day with a big congress centre hall FULL of hardware new and 2nd hand.
Now it's all online and it's boring and it sucks.
Hey, this is the first video I've seen on your channel and its great! I like seeing the deals you manage to pick up on these gpus and the knowledge you have upon them. Love the video, cant wait for the next upcoming video! My favorite deal had to be the 1070ti for $100ish U.S. I currently spent $50 on mine and its great since I can finally play cyberpunk. Anyhow love the vid and subbed
UK prices for ryzen 5000 series are incredibly volatile. Two months ago the 5600X was about £200 and occasionally a little lower. Two weeks ago it was £350. Today it's £170. 5700X and 5800X are both available for £250 and the 5800X3D is £350.
A couple of months ago I was able to pick up a 5600X, B550 MSI Pro ATX and 16G DDR4 3600 for under £350. At the time a 12400F system, once you factor in the MB and memory, was far more expensive and it's difficult to see any reason to build on a 7600X or 7700X (though these are both already being discounted to £330 and £430).
i found a 3090 ti for 400 in tokyo the it was a 1 hour 40 drive from chiba
There's an over supply of everything right now. When I have a 23% VAT in Portugal and can get a brand new RX6600M from AliExpress for less than 185€, something is definitely up. And I just checked, local market has brand new in box Ryzen 5 5500 for 100€.
I love my VEGA's. The STRIX VEGA64 for $130 is definitely my favorite. I recently picked up a 6900XT Trio X/Z for $630 brand new with a $380 13700K to go with it. Loving the states right now.
Not to mention the hbm2 memory. Just fascinating
Wow brand new 😮.. i just bought a 1 year used red devil for 600🥲
that tsukumo was fire when I went there in 2018. Got heaps of DDR4 for cheap and smuggled it all back to Spain
I've found the best time to buy a used GPU is either a month after a launch of a new series OR between january and may as people offload their old GPUs after upgrading during the holidays or use tax return money to upgrade and also offload their old GPUs.
A VERY GOOD condition of that 1156 motherboard!!!
I've just built the X3470 empowered pc.
Slightly oc'ed,but it's with the liquid cooled cpu,so,i'll be waiting for another round of 1156 Xeon overclocking !!!!
So I have a choice to make. Neighbour of mine has a Ryzen 9 5950x for $650 canadian or I could buy a Ryzen 7 5800x3d new for $475. Which one for my next build?

You taking those GPU's back to Australia with you Bryan? Just wondered if you still get stung on your return?
Here in Brazil my cousin got an used RX 6700XT for 2000 BRL (376 usd), which is less than 1/4th of what it cost new a year ago (and cheaper than a brand new 3060 right now). Not to mention it was in surprisingly pristine condition, and the owner bought it 6 months ago so it's not even old.
In Poland you can get a used RX 6600 XT for 200 USD, no warranty, but RTX 3060 start at 300 USD
I loved to go to Akihabara... an electronics paradise.... one day maybe I'll be there again.... only a few hours away from where I live, Thailand... I checked the P55 motherboard, but the specs said that this motherboard only supports DDR3 RAM, so what do you do with that DDR5???
what would you expect to pick up a EVGA GeForce GTX TITAN BLACK Superclocked with full water block ? been used for gaming only.
There are like a million 1060s and 580s suddenly materialising into every second hand market and stores being sold for less than 80$.
Ofc these were probably mining cards.
But I think they are fine.
Modern mining isn’t very hard on the cards so they’re great. I was a bit bummed to realize that my rx 570 8gb was now worth
These cards are old at this point and should be treated as such.
Is this really worth it with plane tickets back and forth, hotel, shipping it all back, etc
visible rust on aluminum fins and copper alloys thou?
They gamed in the rain.
@@ertai222 realistically thou i dknt think its rust. probably food or environmental splatter from sitting in an open air mining rig on a shelf in a moist attic or something.
When aluminum alloy rusts its usually maintains its color while copper alloys lose their shine.
I live in sweden, sadly swedes did not get the memo that used gpu's don't sell for retail price. Altho they are starting to take notice, prices are decreasing finally. but not even close to 208$
Thinking about trading my onexplayer for a 68 or 6900xt since I haven't been using it much. Maybe this is the perfect time to do it
Yeah prices in UK are still over the top. People paying what would be considered overpriced for a new card let alone a second hand GPU. People have no sense. They are spending upwards of £800-£1000 on a used GPU. That still have useless drivers.
hey man recently my Aorus 3060ti stopped working i cant get my pc to even recognize that it is plugged in my fan leds blink and turn off right away after I've tried everything i could (with my very limited knowledge) without opening my gpu could i possibly send it to you and have you check it out?
Man I miss akihabara, can't wait to get back. Buy More is awesome for new parts, got a low profile 1050ti there for about £70 a few years back (2018 iirc) , it's still going strong in my htpc.
Really looking forward to another video on the x99 platform. It has really come down in price recently.
Would be interesting to know how it performs next to some modern budget cpus like the 12400f and also some contemporary cpus like the 4790k and 6700k.
Sadly nothing like that here in Vancouver Canada, but used prices have started to drop a bit. I've seen 3080's for as low as $640 used
