It's a terrible video card, but if you already have an LGA1700 board. The issue is the motherboards for this setup are expensive. You'd be better served going AM4 and getting a 6600XT or a card with more than 4GB VRAM.

you can get a basic b760 board for $100 or less on a b660, lga 1700 being a dead platform is as cheap to get a board for than am4

If only it was an 8GB version of that card. On a modern Intel board that supports that CPU it would be fine.

But, yeah… refurb? Meh.

I am now seeing that you can combo this refurb card with a Ryzen 5500 and you will get the same discount. Total comes to $144

actually now that I think about it , the 5500 is pcie 3.0 which totally wrecks this POS card.

Hard to imagine someone already having an LGA1700 system with a significantly weaker CPU than an i3.

B610 is intel's low end chipset from the 600 series motherboards, sitting below the B660

Here's MSI's B610 board
