Like the name says. What are your guys thoughts on refurbished cards?

 

I took a chance on an open box mobo and had to send it into asus to get the bios flashed but i didn't think that was a big deal. it was technically new and had warranty on it so it didn't cost me any more than shipping.

Personal sales it just means they cleaned it before selling it.

Manufacturer refurbished means they fixed whatever was wrong and it keeps its warranty

 

I dont think ive bought a new GPU... ever? a refurb gpu is probably a safer buy than the gambles i take, but i havent gotten a dead card yet at all, and if i did and it was listed as "refurbished" it would be protected by the seller if it didnt work
