Don’t buy used GPUs! A warning we’ve heard far too many times. But does mining actually harm your GPU? We think not. So we tested 19 different used GPUs from AMD and NVIDIA to determine if cryptomining will make your PC Hardware purchase die on arrival.

The Brazilian market isn't so good
Best channel on yt go guys go…❤️
been saying this for years but its crazy that it takes a guy like linus to make people listen
Yes please keep old hardware. Been using Kepler architecture Nvidia.
Didn't think a day would come where we would watch benchmarks on used cards because newer ones aren't affordable lol.
I am still running a 1080 ti 5 years later.
I just want you to know that my view is not a consequence of the changed title
The problem Is that (at least here in Italy) people sells GPU at the same price as new One. Super Sellers….
10:12 oof that stings
awesome video
Thank you for the philosophy lesson!
Bought a 3060 ti for fairly cheap that was mined on for a year. After a good clean, it’s been solid for the last couple years. The risk paid off for me but can’t say for everyone.
Other than my gpu, my entire computer is either at least 5 years old from my own use or 2nd hand (CPU, ram, Mobo) with those being from ivy bridge era. Everything works just fine even being at a constant voltage oc.
One question i have about this for anyone that knows, the gpu temperatures Linus is referencing, are they the general chip temperatures or the hot spot temperatures of the card?
Well. As long they did not power wash it… no just do not buy them
Now he tells the truth finally!
I like how title has been edited in this video from a diss to media to something less incendiary. Linus playin' it safe, I guess.
thanks for this vid. love meh some tech tips
I don't think 20% is worth buying used, just buy less fast food or something and get a new card
When buying used gpu I’d say the most common consideration is adding cost of new fans. Most I’ve bought the fans were operable but bearings started making scratchy noises even after lubing.
Linus talking about how we should buy used when he buys 100s of new gpus for his money making content each month
I like buying used, although sometimes it makes sense to buy new. Things kujr RAM in my area are barely worth looking at as the used prices are so high. Sometimes I can buy new for less!
But GPU's are definitely worth while.
