But you won't know if it's a noob who murdered the VRAM and everything with high temps and the wrong OC/voltage settings.

Yes if you want to to buy a card that was ran 24/7. I'd only buy new from all the cards that were used to mine

Many people undervolted their cards too...

 

But you don't know if you got that noob who just maxed every slider and walked away for months...

 

Basically, common sense, if you are going to buy one, 100% make sure its got a warranty and receipt attached with the sale or NO-GO.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz
