I'm really looking into buying a new CPU cooler, specifically the NZXT Kraken Elite preferably 360mm, I know its expensive but I like aesthetics. Now, would it a good idea to buy a used one off eBay or something? I have had an AIO leak on me before and kill my graphics card, but I was refunded. But because it's used and I'm not the original purchaser, should I still buy a used Kraken Elite? I've been eyeing this listing on eBay

I was looking for some recommendations for some low profile gpus for a Kodi htpc build I have. I was thinking either a gt 1030 or Rx 550 but anything under $100 is ok by me as long as it can output 4k. Mostly gonna be local file play with some streaming.

This motherboard usually goes around $250 used, they are offering $240 with free shipping, I'm slightly skeptical but I'm not sure, this is a great deal and I really want to get it. It this too good to be true? They have a lot of reviews and sells but I'm still not sure.

This was an eBay card, I got a couple months ago, didn't really think much of it, But I occurred to me that the fans shouldn't really be ramping up incredibly high when booting and then back down. So I popped apart the cooler (which was already missing two backplate screws), and this is what I found. Some of these are just straight and missing, and I have no idea what I need to get to replace all of these. Looking at the state of some of these, I think I should just replace every single one of them. And before you ask, yes that thermal paste dripping all over the board is hard, I did not drip that across the board. I'm kind of embarrassed I didn't think to check this sooner, But it is high time I correct it.

so i just bought a cpu of ebay that kinda seemed too good to be true and the seller shipped it within a minute from my purchase (printed label and sent me the track number which says shipping label created), can you guys have a look at the listing tell me what you think ? https://www.ebay.com/itm/175878255047?epid=24051893995&hash=item28f32931c7:g:h5YAAOSw8pdk6MFE

Hi all, I found myself in a situation here that i have to leave my belongings behind and check on the family at the mother-island. So i am flying today to Curacao, and i REALLY REALLLY REALLLLLYYY do not want to miss out on playing D4 since day one. I Was wondering if there are any options, between 250-350$, so i can still game there. I have spotted the : Mini PC AMD Ryzen 5 3550H Gaming Desktop for 255 on ebay. My question is: is that a good option ? if not, do you have any golden tips, etc? That would be amazing Sidenote: Yes, curacao is very nice... but for me it's still home. I don't get to really enjoy it that much. Hence me wanting to D4. Thanks in advance boys!

Looking at a 3080ti graphics card that is "being sold for parts". Seller says that he bought pre-built, went on vacation and display wasn't working. Reseated and worked, only to have the display go out again. Fans still spin and lights turn on. He said he doesn't have much pc knowledge, so he just bought a new card and is selling the card in question as broken since he can't get it to work. Scam or no scam? If it's a simple driver or psu issue, than I could get a really good deal on the card... But I'm hesitant and want advice on more knowledgable people on GPU's before I make a decision. Images on GPU show no physical damage or wear.

Hi. Is there anyone from any EU country that has purchased something from UK (eBay.co.uk), got VAT charged, used IOSS on the package and it passed through the customs since they recognize eBay's IOSS IM2760000742 and accept that VAT has been already paid? Swedish customs Tullverket does not even have a record of eBay's IOSS and say that eBay's IOSS is wrong and eBay is not using IOSS system properly. As a result I am ending up paying VAT the second time in Sweden as well, which adds up to 50% VAT from the original price+shipping as a result. Is eBay IOSS screwed only in Sweden or is it all over EU? Thanks!

Recently was able to snag a 3060 and was thinking of selling my 1060 6gb. I saw a bunch of listings for ~500 USD. This seems insane to me, if I listed it at that price would anyone actually buy it?

Im buying a gtx 960 4gb card right now its at 50 and its a bid i think im gonna start with 55 but what should be the max i pay for it

Greetings community, First of all I wasn't sure what forum to list this post under so.... I just posted under general. Anyway, I was looking into further protecting my self in cyber space with physical authentication. I then realized how expensive different security keys were. I wouldn't (probably) mind buying from a brand other than YubiKey, but would rather buy from them as they have a pretty good reputation. So, as anyone looking to save a buck does, I went to eBay. Should I even consider buying one used? If so is there a way that someone could create code to steal information on a security key? Thanks, birdflyer

Could I just buy 2 of these cpu's and have a 12 core system for pretty cheap? (Not including the price of ram, storage, gpu, etc)

Hi guys, I put an auction on ebay for my RTX 2060 Founder's edition without any expectation,(Im aware of scams ecc too), but some people made offers(accounts that seem legit) and its almost the price that i paid for it in 2019. Now my question is: should I sell my GPU to get a 3000 series (i was thinking about a 3060ti) that i dont even know when it will be available? I can stay without my pc for a couple of months its not a problem, but my concern is also the price of the 3060 or 3060ti, im afraid that they will get to 500ish price range...

I have been using this Roku for about 2 years by now, and it’s good for 1080p Netflix or what I use it for, watching YouTube videos. It has the all new RokuOS 10 in it, so it is one of the supported ones for the OS. They go for around $15-45 on Ebay. (https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=roku+3+4200x&_sacat=0&rt=nc&LH_BIN=1) This might be a steal of a deal right now if you’re in the market for cheap Rokus. I mean, I’ve had no problems with it. Roku 3 4200X: 8.5/10. Wish it supported voice controls.

Is this GPU a good deal? I found it on eBay. It is an RX 5500XT, it is an HP OEM 5500XT. It is priced at $350, and is the cheapest 5500XT I found. I know it’s double the MSRP, but I mean a 5500XT brand-new is $700-1000 right now, so is it really the worst deal in this market? eBay link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/115133766475?hash=item1ace81db4b%3Ag%3Ag-AAAOSwWMVhb9MK&LH_BIN=1 I was looking at a GTX 1080 FE, but it was $500 and I heard the 5500XT is more powerful. So in conclusion, should I get it?

I put read description because I know people are gonna say, “Of course a DGPU is better! Are you crazy?” What I meant is that is it better to go on eBay and get a 900/1000 series GPU, like 960, 970, 1050(Ti) etc, or to get an iGPU from AMD or Intel? I have been wondering these because I watch build guides on YouTube and I see below $1000 builds with an APU/iGPU and ones with a 1050 Ti, 960, etc. And what I mean by below $1000 is flat price-points like $500 or $750. In conclusion, which one is best for value? Or, below $1000?

Hey everyone, I've been wanting to sell (not for scalped price!) my RTX 2060 Super for a while now and I was wondering what the GPU selling experience is like. I advertised the GPU on my social media and unfortunately didn't see much interest, and no one I directly know is looking to buy. I've seen some people mention negative incidents on eBay where customers will abuse buyer protection, so I'm a bit hesitant, but I want to hear more experiences. Where would you suggest safely selling a GPU/tips to make sure I don't get scammed? I'm also looking to sell a CPU (Ryzen 9 3900XT), so any advice on that would be appreciated too.

Should I buy it? I see MSRP is 139. But I feel bad guy lost his job too so might be pushing me to buy it but idk. I'd have to pick up too so. Like 2hrs gas on top of it.

I was wondering why, much like fake graphics cards and GTS 450s, so many eBay PCs use 2nd Gen Intel. Does anyone have an answer for this? Is it just the bare minimum to run Fortnite on (which is what most of these PCs are advertised for)?

I tend to trust manufacturer refurbished as i have bought laptops from dell outlet and had a good experience. Matter of fact, I had a better experience than when i bough an xps new, I assume this is due to a 2nd quality control check. This listin says it is directly from razer and has a 2 year warranty, is it worth trusting?

I found this GTX Titan 6GB and I’m wondering if that is a good deal for 90EUR = 108.87USD Apparently the only problem is that there is error code 43 (driverupdate)

My mom gifted me her old computers. This one is pure intel. It's an acer. I bought 2 gpus (for the price of one) off EBAY (my first ever purchase) they are Zotac gt630 synergy edition w/ 4gb of VRAM. I have 2 monitors. If i plug in the card, ************************* AND PLUG THE MONITOR INTO THE DVI, EITHER SLOT, ************************* at all, everything is black on the screen. If the card is in the slot, and i plug the monitor into the vga, on board graphic port, everything is black on the screen. If I remove the card, everything is fine. Both cards, do this. If i try to install nvidia drivers, it says, there's no card present, can't install. ****************************************************DXIAG*************************** Operating System: Windows 10 Home 64-bit (10.0, Build 19042) (19041.vb_release.191206-1406) Language: English (Regional Setting: English) System Manufacturer: Acer System Model: Aspire T3-605 BIOS: P11-A2 (type: UEFI) Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.4GHz Memory: 12288MB RAM Available OS Memory: 11682MB RAM Page File: 4256MB used, 19202MB available Windows Dir: C:\WINDOWS DirectX Version: DirectX 12 DX Setup Parameters: Not found User DPI Setting: 96 DPI (100 percent) System DPI Setting: 96 DPI (100 percent) DWM DPI Scaling: Disabled Miracast: Available, with HDCP Microsoft Graphics Hybrid: Not Supported DirectX Database Version: 1.0.8 --------------- Display Devices --------------- Card name: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 Manufacturer: Intel Corporation Chip type: Intel(R) HD Graphics Family DAC type: Internal Device Type: Full Device (POST) Device Key: Enum\PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_0412&SUBSYS_07931025&REV_06 Device Status: 0180200A [DN_DRIVER_LOADED|DN_STARTED|DN_DISABLEABLE|DN_NT_ENUMERATOR|DN_NT_DRIVER] Device Problem Code: No Problem Driver Problem Code: Unknown Display Memory: 2560 MB Dedicated Memory: 512 MB Shared Memory: 2048 MB Current Mode: 1600 x 900 (32 bit) (60Hz) HDR Support: Not Supported Display Topology: Internal Display Color Space: DXGI_COLOR_SPACE_RGB_FULL_G22_NONE_P709 Color Primaries: Red(0.635742,0.330078), Green(0.303711,0.628906), Blue(0.154297,0.070312), White Point(0.313477,0.329102) Display Luminance: Min Luminance = 0.500000, Max Luminance = 270.000000, MaxFullFrameLuminance = 270.000000 Monitor Name: Generic PnP Monitor Monitor Model: G206HL Monitor Id: ACR02E9 Native Mode: 1600 x 900(p) (60.000Hz) Output Type: HD15 Monitor Capabilities: HDR Not Supported Display Pixel Format: DISPLAYCONFIG_PIXELFORMAT_32BPP Advanced Color: Not Supported Driver Name: igdumdim64.dll,igd10iumd64.dll,igd10iumd64.dll,igd12umd64.dll Driver File Version: 20.19.0015.5171 (English) Driver Version: 20.19.15.5171 DDI Version: 12 Feature Levels: 11_1,11_0,10_1,10_0,9_3,9_2,9_1 Driver Model: WDDM 2.0 Hardware Scheduling: Supported:False Enabled:False Graphics Preemption: Primitive Compute Preemption: Thread group Miracast: Supported Detachable GPU: No Hybrid Graphics GPU: Integrated

Hey guys, so I found this seller refurbished Sony WH-XB900N on ebay for a very good price...almost too good price, but the seller have very good review and the item also have Ebay money back guarantee (on the right side).

Hey guys, so I found these used gpus on Ebay (One said light used in good working condition, and one is just used) the price is really good..almost too good, but I have eBay money back guarantee so no worries if it's a scam, but I wonder if I actually get this gpu in working condition, will it be good or like last for a long time or it's just gonna work for like a week/ month and die? Someone please help me thanks. (Both seller is really good with 100% positive feedback on about 500 rating)

Hey guys, so I wanted I buy a decent AMD CPU for my gaming PC and I came across 3 options (5 3600, 5 2600x, 52600), but I am on a budget and if I want to buy something new, I can only afford the 2600(x), however there is this 5 3600 CPU n eBay that sold for significantly cheaper and it's also listed as new from this very good rated seller, and I also have return/ ebay money back options. So the question here is: 1. Should I buy it? 2. How do check in the first month that that CPU is going to last long and not going to be dead after several months 3. What are you guys experience on buying CPU from eBay? Thank you.
