2nd hand Gaming...anything

Post by TechWiz18 »

How do you feel about buying secondhand gaming hardware, peripherals etc?

I traded a MacBook Pro for a 2060 graphics card a few year ago and it's worked out quite nicely.
I bet you can't see me now!

It's pretty good as long as you're careful. You can get burned on graphics cards in particular if they've been used extensively for crypto mining. :P

I'm weird. I like being the only one to touch something. It kills me not knowing what kind of person owned it previously.

I would have to say I wouldn't buy anything used for gaming. Because I know how other gamers treat their stuff. Like overclocking video cards etc.
