I grabbed a refurbished 3070 from newegg with a warranty for pretty cheap a few months back and it's worked like a dream compared to my old, low-profile 1650
@@ismailmoukhlis2652 like I never understood why people say it performs so much better than my old xxx ofc it's gonna it's a fking 3070 you're comparing to a 1650, check the 6700xt 6800 and 6800xt it's competitions then it makes sense
It is always the way to go.. the only new gpu that can game under $200 is the rx6400 or gtx 1650. Both way underpowered for $200. For $200 you can get a used 2060
If the seller has over 2000 positive feedback and 0 negative chances are that even if something does go wrong they will make it right. That was my experience at least.
I can see 3070s for like $250 in my country but there are refurbished 6000 series cards for dirt cheap like 6900xt is going for $350 with 2 year warranty!
Buying used things are great, especially when it comes to computers (if you do the research). I bought a 14 inch MBP M1pro for 1550$ at 26 cycle count with 16GBs of RAM and 500GB storage, a new one would've cost me about 2400$ if not more. I also got my 2060S, i5-9600k, 256GB nvme, 1TB HDD, 16GBs of RAM with the mouse, keyboard and mousepad and 144hz monitor all for 900$. P.S: both computers were used for about 4-6 months each and extremely clean like new.
Bought a used 1080 off of hardwareswap like 5 yeard ago. Worked great, just recently swapped to a 7900xt. Gonna put it back in another build at some point, thing is a tank.
I sold my 3080-ti for $530 but I was a new account on eBay. 😅 I never really sell anything and haven’t before. But I decided that I should sell it so it’s not sitting around in my room for years gathering dust.
got a used 3070ti for like $600 during the bad gpu crisis when miners bought everything. months after, traded it for a suprim X 3080 and $150 on top. Traded my 3080 for a AIO 3090 and $300 on top for the price difference recently, no complaints and still has 2 years of warranty
I work at a computer repair store and luckily I had the privilege of someone just walking in to sell their gpu so I booked his card in and tested it found it was ok and bought it from the guy. Easiest second hand purchase of my life.

Heck yea I just got a ASUS Rogue Strix RTX 3050 oc for $360 cad. The guy only used it for a month and upgraded to a 3070. I’m blown away how much more performance it has compared to my old GTX 1660 oc 6gb!
Actually the 3050 have kinda the same performance than 1660 oc. The only difference is that 3050 has DLSS and ray tracing cores But the raw performance is nearly 5% different, according by techpowerup. I think you compared their perfomance with the 3050 with dlss on You should compare them without any AI on 3050
grabbed RX 6700 XT for 220$, just minor rust on bracket, rest is gud, i only expect the GPU but the sellers send me fully intact product (box, manuals, and even warranty) which gave me surprise
I bought a mined-with Asus Tuf 3080ti from a guy off offerup. Paid with paypal. He repasted and re-padded the card for me. Works like a top. Paid $550 for it in October. 10/10 would do again. Checked it out myself, and he did a great job refurbing it.
I have recently built a PC out of 400 ish euros and it can play most anything. Very good budget PC with specs ( RX 6600 XT, Ryzen 5 3600 and 16 GB ram) . I didn't have to buy PSU and Storage since I had them in my previous PC.
I bought a used knockoff rtx 3070 on eBay for $300. I was really nervous that it was going to be a brick! When got here I put it in my pc and tested it. It performed equal to my Gigabyte rtx 3070! What a relief.
Facebook marketplace is good away from the US. Just make sure to take the same precautions he does and some. Ask for additional photos if necessary, ask for card history if necessary, most important of all ask to test it before purchase.
Also remember: while eBay has buyer protection, their global shipping doesn’t (doesn’t matter what they say, it doesn’t protect the buyer). Examples (all Dankpods): he bought a sealed iPod, and they just cut right into the box. He bought a different MP3 player, someone in the delivery chain stole it, and put all of the instructions and stuff back
I bought a tug gaming 3070ti for only 450. With tax and shipping it was 500.83. My card maxes out at 500. That sucked. It was said to be a former mining card, pictures didn’t look in bad condition. When it arrived the thing had less dust on it then my 3050. I made sure it was in fact a 3070ti and it was. Easy steal for only 500
Bought a used 3060ti, 3070 and 3080. All work almost perfect fine with the exception of the 3080 being but hot and lout but still overall saved me about 1000$
As a noob i bought my 1st 2gb GPU for gaming, and after few months i realised not all games are supported, so I researched and found out it's a gt520 which is not for gaming, then I bought a used 1060, used it for 2 years and sell it in higher price(because of crypto) now I just got a used 2060 after 3 years, life of a poor gamer 😅

One more thing is to read everything on the product page. You don't want to accidentally buy parts for the GPU you wanted instead of the whole GPU.
