This is a feeler now to gauge interest. The GPU has been working flawlessly apart from some strange crashes to desktop with certain games. It might be an issue with my psu or gpu but to err on the side of caution I'll assume it's the gpu and thus stated the price lower than "normal" pricing of this gpu.

Selling the card to buy a 3060ti (hopefully) as the card has a lower power draw and provides similar/ slightly better performance.

The following games play perfectly for hours with no crashes:

DOTA 2, Dying Light, Division 2, Outriders, RDR2, Borderlands 3 and World War Z

The following has crashed to desktop with no error messages:

Horizon Dawn, Cyberpunk 2077 and Crysis 3.

I lowered the GPU's core clock by -50hz and the crashes disappeared. Weirdly enough the games in question doesn't crash anymore after the initial clock decrease (done with Afterburner) even when the clock deficit was disabled (Afterburner set to not autostart with Windows).

Upon checking GPU-Z and HWinfo, I noticed that my GPU power draw exceeds 100% on occassion which makes me think that there might be a power issue with my PSU (Corsair 600w Gold). I've added screenshots below.

I tried undervolting the GPU and failed horribly and has never tried to do so again.

Selling the GPU as is and if it was my PSU then the person might have scored lol (no moneys to replace PSU for the time being or have a spare to test).

FYI

Great price.

Side note the power draw over 100% is normal. These newer gpu's do auto overclock when demand is there and it's not too hot.

Thanks for the input. I thought that might be a problem as the perfcap reason on gpu-z would state power as the performance cap reason when going over 100%.

Temps is pretty good for it being in an itx case with only air cooling. Those temps were while stress testing. It maxes out at 70 playing graphically intensive games at 1440p.
