Hi, I have been offered a second hand Zotac GTX 1080ti mini in the $340 range. There is still 1 year of warranty, but the thing is that the seller said that the GPU has been used for slight mining and that it's still working great etc.
The seller owns the GPU for 2 years now, and says that the GPU has been mined for 6 months, slight mining? I really have no idea, and this is why I'm asking here.
Generally the price is pretty fine, but I don't know if it's worth it considering that I also have an offer for Zotac GTX 1080 AMP Extreme for $315, still in warranty as well.
So generally I'm looking for a GPU that will last me for many years, as I'm not someone who changes parts every now and then, until a few days ago I still carried my i5 3470 since 2013, along with my current GTX 770 running, so this is pretty much the scale I'd like to have here as well.
The GTX 108ti should obviously "last longer" in terms of strength, but possibly the GTX 1080 will run just fine for me and could possibly last longer because it hasn't been used for mining.
A few things I should add:
I really don't need such a strong GPU(for now at least), playing mostly CSGO/PUBG and some slight graphical design which generally doesn't require much.
My other gear is:
Ryzen 7 2700x
32GB ram
x570 phantom gaming 4
800W PSU
Would love to hear your thoughts, thanks a lot!
