Used gpus.

[melias24]

Hey guys, so i just want your opinions on buying used GPU's. Anyone here purchased a used GPU? Did you regret it? Would you prefer to buy new? 
I was thinking of getting myself a GTX titan or something alone those lines, as sometimes they go very cheap in Aus. Or maybe even a CFX or SLI setup.

I'd rock a used Titan if they werent so freaking overpriced. They should be 250 usd max

I actually have never purchased a new GPU. I have purchased a MSI TF3 7950 used, 2x GTX 580's used, and in the process of buying a 780Ti used.

That's why I'm going 780Ti, although that 290X is pretty beast.

I got my used R9 290 for $170. I've sold a 750 Ti and a GTX 760.

HD7950/7970's are 2nd hand at $100-125 Aussie dollars at times, good price>performance, so I got two of em, and have performance in many titles faster than my GTX970 or 290x.

290's are also going for pretty cheap at times, two of them would be nice.

GTX680's/770's , two of them at a right price... noice!

 

I would, and have, many times.

I bought a used 980Ti hybrid but can't remember the brand, but I haven't bought a used one since.

Gumtree/Facebook Groups

Enthusiasts sell stuff at decent enough prices...

2x 770 would be killer, or 2x 680's (being cheaper)

Or a single 780/780ti at the right price.

Yea i do own a 770 2gb atm, but it seems to struggle in alot of games It always has FPS drops all the time, i think it could be due to the reference cooler, and the heat. I am also considering selling my Dtop and buying a laptop, but IDK if it'd be worth it because most laptops with GTX 960m are at about $1700+ and they struggle to play BF4 so.....

The only laptops worth getting, are TOO expensive, more expensive than that $1700.

SRSLY DO NOT, You'll have buyers remorse. Even expensive ones don't play titles that well in the next year when harder hitting games come out.

I'd chase another 770 if its cheap enough, if not, sell your current one, put monies towards a 780ti/970 instead of buying a laptop which won't last as long.

 

IMO of course...

yea i see where your coming from. It's either a new GPU some nice headphones like ATH-m50s, but then i need to save more monies, if i can just sell my 770 then put my extra $120 to it then i got a good GPU on my hands.

I'm thinking to sell my old ASUS GTX 560Ti. What do you think a decent price for that right now?

Well i'd recommend going onto what ever used advert sites in your local area and compare prices then if you want a quick sale make it a bit cheaper or put it up as the price other people have advertised.

I was looking at getting a used GTX 670, but the cost is just too high for a used graphics card.
