That's what i thought too. But if we ignore the price of new cards, are used mining gpu ok? Because i've been through a lot of reading. It seems to be divided. One side saying that gpus lifespan isnt based on how long it's been used but rather the cycles where it cools down and heats up repeatedly while the other half is saying what you're saying.I am not sure I would. 1070 is around 3 years old now and for mining these cards runs 24/7. So it probably has a lot of running hours on it. You pay the price by getting a card where it's lifespan potentially already has dropped significantly and you have no warranty to backup. If the card fails, unless it's a card with longer warranty throw manufacturer and registrated throw the manufacturer homepage for extended warranty period.
200 usd is also a bit high, specially for mining card that has been running for a long time. I would spend the ekstra 50 usd for a new card with warranty and you know how it has been used.

yea, this is the truth, fans where my biggest headache, esp. on AMD rx470 cards from XFX.The biggest risk on cards running 24/7 isn't the gpu itself but the fans. Be prepared to swap them because they will fail after running near 100% for so long.

Would you guys get a gtx 1070 that was used for mining for 200 usd? The retail price for a gtx 1660 is about 250usd in my country. The gtx 1070 seller has good reviews.

200 euro and 200usd are different price, OP said in usd.That is freaking bad deal... if 1070 would go for 100 euro ok, but not for 200 without waranty and mined.
It is around 168 euro = 200 usd. Still no200 euro and 200usd are different price, OP said in usd.

I wrote on my post I would pass on 200usd.It is around 168 euro = 200 usd. Still no. If that gpu would go for 120 usd (100 euro) then it is a good snatch.
