    Mainstream GPU makers seem to have abandoned the budget space altogether, with almost every new card worth buying being $350 and up. But there are some NEW GPUs showing up on AliExpress, with the RX 580 being just $87. Do they work, is there a catch, and should you pick up one of these for your next build?
    But first... What am I drinking???
    Today's cocktail is a Bramble, with a bit of an Oregon flair. 1.5oz Aviation Gin, 1/2oz Simple Syrup, and juice from 1/2 of a lemon. Stir that up in a rocks glass with ice, then float 3/4oz of Oregon Marionberry Whiskey on top. Sub that for Blackberry Liqueur for the traditional recipe.

    I have one of those Aliexpress remanufactured GPU. Paid 230$ shipped to Brazil for my RTX 3060 Ti, never had a problem with it, it runs cool and quiet GPU-Z detected as a MSI card. If the die is good but the rest of the components are worned out, remanufacturing it seems not only a good way to reduce e-waste but also to deliver cheap goods for people.

      Yup, this is great. Only bad thing about it is when they try to scam people thinking its original hardware. Like they do with 4090s.
      With some transparancy in the marked, this could become a very good thing.

    I bought a new RX570 8GB years ago for fun experimentation. It was €150 including 21% tax, and I was very impressed by it. Even though I was already used to 1080Ti performance. I plan on using it with a 4th gen core i5 as a spare PC, while I work on custom water cooling on my main rig. The Saboteur is on sale with GoG now, so expect to play that with it during that time.

      I would agree that is possible but miners were paying big money for these things and im guessing nearly all of them ended up in mining farms even if they started life in a gaming rig.
      At $87 there isn’t much room to peel a gpu out of a board and put it in a new pcb, add new 8gb ram new fans and make a profit so I will continue to believe its somewhat recycled.
      Having said all that Id feel comfortable buying one. At that price really can’t lose.

By midnight I had in the PC and so far, it is working. I know nothing about these things let alone what they can do. Other than games no one ever shows what else these cards can do. Since it can record games can they also record TV? I got this in hopes of speed up video editing. At any rate so far I like it, it is kind of fun to watch the task manager run. So far, the CPU usage has not gone above 40% before it was 65 or so. And the GPU 50% now. Before 80% or more. Like I said I just put this in last night, just need some time to see how well it will hold up. XFX580, 8Gig.

    I bought one of these about 2 months back to build a gaming PC for my brother. I knew this card was OBVIOUSLY a stepdown from the 6900xt I have in my system, but I'm on a budget, and figure we can upgrade him later if we need to.
    And I'm very impressed with card. Like yours, drivers loaded with no issues, and it performs well. Even with a VR unit! I want to buy more of these cards to build more "beginner" or "budget friendly" gaming PCs for people.

      @Sami I always preferred AMD over Nvidia. And from what I understand from benchmarks, the normal 580 is much better, so even this mildly stripped down version should still beat the 1030, and at less than 90 bucks for the card.

    I couldnt get a 580 anywhere near the price mentioned; in the end I ordered a SOYO branded RX 5700xt.
    It arrived looking immaculate, but there were issues straight out of the gate.
    Furmark - the hotspot jumped straight to 113C within a second, and started thermal throttling; while the fans were howling away with a metallic buzz.
    I tried the lower presets for Furmark and everything went exactly the same.
    Since I could detect some play in the heatsink/board (about 1-2mm of sideways movement from a fairly gentle twisting force), I stripped the board down.
    I found the gpu die was scratched, and that it had been polished to try and remove the scratch, no trace of the original AMD writing on the die remains.
    I fitted a Raijintek Morpheus cooler with a pair of Noctua NF-A12x15 FLX fans rated at 55.4 cfm/94.2 cmh (fixing the fans was a nightmare); after an issue with the new gpu bracket fouling a cap, I managed to get everything screwed down tight, and the main GPU temps were MUCH better, however the hotspot is still hitting 113 C within a few seconds and thermally throttling the gpu.
    Max GPU package temp under load now settles at 64C, while the Hotspot is thermally throttling at 113C.
    I had some TG Hydronaut arrive yesterday, so I am about to strip the card down, clean the die (again), and see if that helps.
    I COULD fit fans with a higher airflow, but a 40 degree differential between the hotspot and the rest of the die is way out of spec, so that needs addressing first.
    OK A FEW HOURS LATER.
    AM I allowed to swear ??
    They ground the die down so far, a normal heatsink doesnt make proper contact; the one they fitted - which wasnt designed for the RX range, has a specially raised copper plate to make up the difference.
    I didnt notice this when I took it off originally, because there was so much thick thermal paste on it.
    So using Hydronaut, the heatsink and the die werent touching AT ALL.
    I have cleaned it off and applied MX4, which has helped a lot, but it is still hard throttling well below the maximum power, regularly dropping to below 100 watts from a max of 198 watts (TDP = 225)
    I still have that 40C differential as well, suggesting the die isnt flat, so I dont think bigger, faster, (nosier) fans are going to help much
    Is there such thing as a copper foil I could place between the die and the heatsink to make up for the difference between the original height and this ground down die height?

    Actually, for the RX 580 2048SP, they don't use that for mining. This version of RX 580 was specifically produced and sold for China's market and much of them now sold as second hand GPU for international market. Aisurix might've taken the bulk unused processors and manufactured it as their own products, seeming that RX 580 already being replaced by other value for money GPU in China.

      Cause it's not an RX-580. It's literally an RX-570 perhaps even slower than the RX-570 given how it's clocked at. But apparently their is this idea that they are "getting an RX-580 for less than 100 usd" and these chinese companies seems to be succeeding with that marketing ploy as every tech based yt channel seems to blatanly ignore the white elephant in the room that it's nothing but a basic version of the RX-570.
