[IMG]https://static.slickdealscdn.com/images/smilies/smile.gif[/IMG] but I've heard that people will run stress tests (programs you can download) to "clock" the GPU's performance and make sure it's working the way it's supposed to .. also any recommended benchmarks the GPU's you suggested should hit with said stress tests? Honestly being the paranoid sort I'm afraid to buy my GPU's used
[IMG]https://static.slickdealscdn.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif[/IMG] (NOT saying this is the way to go by any means, again I am paranoid by nature and I've heard a lot of people buy used GPU's and are just fine) so I don't know anything about recommended stress tests or benchmarks.. though come to think of it I probably should have run those even on my new GPU's way back when I bought them to make sure they were running up to spec.)
Also OP be careful to buy used GPU's from a merchant that will have your back if the GPU is not as described (so say amazon or ebay for example specifically the third party sellers on their who I believe are forced to follow amazon/ebay's policies if the customer isn't happy) ...
Edit: Micro Center, if one's nearby, still has the $200 bundle w/ CPU, motherboard, and 16 GB.
The key if you're buying anything new is to make sure it uses all 16 lanes.
