Overpaying for using them is not smart. They depreciate fast under heavy load.

Overpaying for using them is not smart. They depreciate fast under heavy load.
- knowitnone 2y agobut nobody needs to know what load they were used so it's "barely used" on the listings
- toolz 2y agoload isn't what causes degradation, it's heat and as someone who has mined crypto for years I'm aware that there are a lot of things that can be done to run hardware quite hard and keep thermals low. Whether or not that is what is being done, I have no idea. A GPU mining crypto for 5 years kept below 65C (rather easily done) is going to have far more life left than a GPU in some kids gaming PC that spikes frequently to 85C for even a year.
