I'm happy that it wasn't DOA and that it works as expected but "as expected" also means that this is still a 6-7 year old GPU. I've had to reapply thermal paste to the GPU as the original has dried out but that's typical for computer parts older than 5 years. Even after the reapplication the temps are 80c under load, which is too high for me so I might buy an aftermarket cooler.
I got the video card and all the accessories with it but when i installed it i had problems with it and had to send it back to msi to be repaired they said it will cost 55 dollars and will be refurbished at that point i guess that's the chance you take buying used
I run my Pc in performance power mode in a small mini case with EVGA percision X to regulate heat on the GPU ..Im getting max temps at 67 degrees minumums @ 28 degrees .. Its great video card.
