I can get pic related for cheap from a shop that's about to go under, should I pull the trigger?

my GPU died recently and I'd rather spend my money on my pets than replacing it with a GTX 1060 / RX 480

plus it has a 384 bit bus memory, if I overclock it won't it perform great at 1080p for another year or so at least?

I have the exact same GPU and i bought it 200 euros 1+1/2 years ago. It handles 1080p fine at least for me. Even Deus Ex MD runs at 45-50 fps at high (1080p).
>>
>>56337962
How cheap?
>>
>>56337962

What is cheap?
>>
>>56338013
did you overclock it?

what's your CPU?
>>
>>56338035
>>56338038
100 bucks according to google's currency converter
>>
>>56338065
it's not a particularly good deal
it's meh, just normal prices
280 is kinda shit btw
>>
>>56338065
Go for it buddy
>>
>>56338047
No, i generally don't overclock because it is not worth it. My CPU is an i5 4570 and it is around 70-90% usage when playing Deus Ex.
>>
>>56338065

Depending on where you lived I would buy it. If you would even resell it you would still easy make a quick profit. If you live in US probably not since everything is far cheaper there then in europe.
>>
>>56338047
And something else, it could be useful to show us which games you prefer to play. I could check the performance of some games.
>>
If it's only 100 bucks, wtf are you waiting for? Even its used resale value is higher than that.
>>
>>56338173
the usual timesinks: WoW, CSGO, maybe some Dota 2 and TW3's DLC
>>
>>56338209
CSGO izi pizi 250-300 fps (i haven't changed the frame limiter which is by default 300)
I haven't played dota 2 but i can play lol at ultra with 200 fps i think
I haven't played WoW but i think you should be fine
TW3 is a heavy game i think it can handle medium
>>
>>56338307

looks like I'll probably be picking it up later today, thanks m8
>>
>>56337962
lol I have 3x r9 280x in my basement I'm trying to get rid of. Totally though, I'm running the 4th in my PC and I can run every game medium-max, and they'll be cheap as fucks.
