Saw some sellers on a FB group the other day who were selling rx 580s that they claim are roughly 6 months old for only Rs 19000-felt really tempted to go for it.

@ssb1551:It was the 8gb variant

I found an even more bizarre deal recently-another seller based in haryana was offering 5-6 months old 1070s for sale @ unbelievably low prices-he quoted a price of Rs 17k for a asus 1070 8gb-when asked why the prices were so low he claimed that they bought such cards in bulk directly from the manufacturer and thus they could offer those gpus at heavily discounted prices-not sure whether it was some kind of scam or a legit deal. Also he stated that he will send the product by courier only after the realization of payment that has to be made via bank transfer to his personal a/c.

It did sound too good to be true-but if his intentions were honest and whatever he was saying was true then it would have been an absolutely crazy deal!!

^Can gpus still function reliably after being subjected to such intensive workloads? If its under warranty then will the manufacturer replace it in case it malfunctions?

why have the prices of intel's coffeelake cpus increased considerably of late? earlier an i5 8400 was priced at Rs 13000(approx) and now its being sold for 17k or more.Similarly i3 8100's price has increased to around 10k(earlier it was around 8k).Why this sudden upsurge in the prices of intel cpus?

Anyone know the going prices for GPUs in brick and mortar stores? What might one expect to pay for say an RX 580 or GTX 1060?

Thanks. I was wondering maybe the situation in offline stores would be a little different. I guess it's time to pay them shops a visit. I have been in need of a new system for a year now.

will buying an used 1060 3gb for 11-12k for temporary gaming purposes be a bad investment?These cards are going pretty cheap nowadays.Will the gpu's 3gb memory impede the card's ability to perform well in games(as opposed to cards with 4gb/6gb Vram)?
