Refurbished graphics card?

[Kyle0050]

I found a good deal on a video card from newegg. Buy new or is it safe to buy refurbished? Hope somone can help!

how much cheaper is the refurbished version and what sort of warranty does it come with?

Normally the warranty is short and the discount not worth the risk!

What I just got from chat

I would be glad to help you, Kyle. This item can be returned back to us before 01/31/2014 for a replacement if it is defective. The manufacturer warranty period is one year.

IF and I mean IF you actually get a year warranty and the discount is really well I'd go for it. But it seems a little weird it still having the 1 year warranty, I would make sure on that. Or just buy the new one and be on the safe side

Oh so you are just looking at an inexpensive low end graphics card. i think you'd be fine. I mean I'd think harder about it if you were dumping a few hundred into one I'd be more worried
