Title: Rx480
Post by: skhan855 on July 04, 2017, 06:15:55 PM
Hi
I am newbie, but quickly found out that GPU has vanished from markets.
I have one source available offered RX 480 by end of this month with 8GB.

My question is that is 4GB ok or should i go for 8GB
Secondly cards are refurbished, is it worth buying each costing USD 260

Would appreciate early reply.

I wont buy it if i was you,
Because it's refurbished right ? You need to run it whole time,do you believe it will last long ? Because i experienced it,a refurbished items wont last long ( even thought some of them're not ).i would like to buy another vga card instead of buying that refurbished items.
Believe it or not refurbished item is a junk,
But of course it's up to you,
How about find an used item other than a refurbised item ? (used item optional *)

Refurbished card most probably means that was in mining 24/24. The temperature for mining is about 70-80 degree for this card. The life remaining is not too much for this card, even it is refurbished.
