GTX 780 good buy at 50?

candle_86 · Nov 16, 2019

So as title states, is it a good buy at 50 bucks. My R9 290 crapped out at the same time my sister lost her job and needed rent help, so I need a gpu for cheap.

Hyderz · Nov 16, 2019

yeah 50 bux why not? its performs between rx560 n 570 i think, but its held back by its lack of vram.
errrr i dont know why u need to mention about your sister lost her job but hey chin up and persevere, find another job

Because it limited my money handing her 900 bucks so my budget that could have been more ceased

No, buy a 470 for $10 more.

Cheapest local 470 is at 80

depend on the brand and model, but if it was me, i would say $20 in most used/secondhand in general

$50 is stil reasonable indeed, go ahead grab it, is still good for hd gameplay :toast:

Yes, but is it new? Even if not, it is much newer. If it were me I would find a way to get the 470.

My budget is 60,

I bought the card, considering what I play I should be fine, cities skylines isn't graphicly demanding nor is the other games I play.

Wouldn't get one, I'd rather save few bucks more and get an user R9 290 or a GTX 970 if the prices are similar as here in Finland in Euros.

I ended up with an rx570 pulse

If you bought it through PayPal ... dispute it and send it back.

Khonjel · Nov 17, 2019

Fucking ouch! Even if you buy directly with cash usually there's an agreement that the buyer deserves 7 days moneyback guarantee. Enforcement is different matter though. But I usually visit the seller's house to check if the part works in his PC (and a far more nefarious reason of knowing the seller's location if it's a lemon). I also take a friend along so not to get jumped and call in a friend when I'm selling something as well.
