generally budget gaming PCs benefit greatly from used GPUs and I've used several myself

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

If they weren’t safe to use, no one would buy them and there wouldn’t be a tremendously huge market for used ones.

are used graphics cards ok to use, will there be anything lacking other than a warranty and original box?

Graphics card are not that prone of failing in case you maintain it well.

People buy it,but ofc avoid the cards that were used for mining.

For sure test it fora day in graphic intense apps and if everything okay,with some luck you are good to go.

 

Please do not take offence for my apparent confusion or rudeness,it's not intent me to be like that,it's just my BPD,be nice to me,and I'll return twice better,be rude and usually I get easly pissed of...I'll try to help anyone here,as long as it's something I dealt with,and even if you think I'm rude or not polite,forgive me,  it's not me it's my BPD.

Thanks for understanding.
