Factory recertified is probably the way to go if you want powerful hardware for (relatively) cheap, new gpu prices just don’t make sense anymore. Even back when RX 6x50 refreshes came out shit wasn’t so cartoonishly expensive
This is what I did with a Radeon RX 480, which still served me well until I upgraded to 1440p about a year ago. The price was good, and although one of the fans was defective, a replacement fan was quickly shipped and easily installed.

I got an open box 7900xtx from microcenter for a pretty good price. No regrets.
Wish they were more widespread. Closest to me is… 800 miles away? Was nice when I was near one.
That’s a sign you need to move ;)
I agree though
Shame microcenter doesn’t ship GPUs, they’re only reservable for in-store pickup.
I mean my new 7900xtx was $1k, but I still think it was a pretty good price compared to the 9060 and the 9070.
Nice. I think I paid 750 +tax
