Did any of you buy used stuff and did it work fine. I never buy used gpu's because of mining but is it ok to buy ram, cpu's mobo's etc. 

Specs: AMD FX 6300 @ 4ghz, Asus R9 270 OC, 8gb Corsair xms3, Cooler Master GX 550w PSU, WD 500 blue, Gigabyte  GA-970A-DS3

Yeah it's ok so long as the price is right, you can buy Nvida GPUs used without fear of mining.

AMD cards are more efficient for the purpose, that is the only reason.

Just be careful of graphics cards that were used for mining. Everything else is okay, also try to ask your friends if they will sell you pc parts.
