I found my old graphics card amd radeon r9 270x, which I used in mining rig 6-7 years ago, and I tested it a few days ago on my new computer with Amd Ryzen 3600 and the results are very good - about 60 fps in GTA V on high details, in Apex Legends is around 70-80fps, and pubg 60-70 fps, very amazing results for an "tortured" and old GPU.

Memory flash!   I think I made most of my later coin with a R9 290X.   I never really was into mining full time, preferring to play games.  :/

Pretty good for such an old map. I only wonder how long it will hold out under gaming loads.

It wouldn't be tortured anymore so it should be fine and can remain for longer years.

It has survived that it's been used mainly for mining so the duration might be lesser this time but, as long as it's ok and it will be only for games, it shall sustain longer lifespan.
