Posted September 19, 2018 Has anyone here ever bought EVGA B-Stock Products? I purchased a GTX 1060 6GB SSC for $149.99 and was wondering if it was a risky buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only issue I've ever had was a "DOA" card that would not install Nvidia drivers on arrival. (Code 43 error) Sent it back and got the same card a week later. No issues with the second card in that order. Fine you want the PSU tier list?

I got a refurb or 'b' stock card when I RMA'd a gtx 970 through EVGA. other than a small dent on two fins of the heatsink it appeared to be brand new. The refurb card worked perfectly for about 3 years with no issues until i sold it.

Posted September 19, 2018 I've never ordered direct from manufacturers and had no idea EVGA sold B stock, now I'm browsing for deals and shopping for things I don't need.
