used card advice?

[patriciadiaz1919]

I saw some good 1080,1080 ti used on random stores as not sure are they worth it and safe to buy will i get a warranty if something does not work?

 

I saw some have the water cooling all in one aio but do they last longer as the fan version of it and do i need to worry miners and people who overclock them for long time.

They'll usually tell you if you get a warranty or not. I'd say it's anything between no warranty and under 2 years but I'm not sure.

If you worry so much then it may not be worth it because your mind will fixate on negatives all the time. Buying used means you need some faith.

If it’s from a company that has a transferable warranty and the orginal owner registered it and is selling it to you, then sure. No other reason should make you believe there’s any kind of warranty. 

 

Dont see what miners or overclocking has to do with any of it. 

 

Sample size is is too small to suggest if an aio version would last longer than fans. User error plays a larger factor there as well. 

 

Blower fan would outlast any third part fan setup. 

 

Either way you can get many years out of a card without issue. Buy new or deal with the used gamble that everyone does everyday.
