I guess if I get kidnapped, just rip my ssd out and remove its flash memory and make a scam out of it

Why tho? For 600 I’ll go get myself a 4070super but to each their own.
I’d buy it, but probably upgrading next gen from the 3090, but 3090 is a great card, playing on it right now, extra vram has saved me from plenty of unoptimized launches, but I wouldn’t buy it for newer launches or 4K, 3090 is a great 1440p card
It’s not bad at all. As others have said, yeah, you COULD get a 4070 super for the same price….but why would you want a less powerful card…..? The 4070 S is roughly equivalent to a 3080, not a 3090…..
It may also need a powerful psu. Just something to keep in mind
Nah. You can get a new 4070s with that money. Unless you’re into video editing and you need the large amount of VRAM, just don’t. Or see if you can bargain for 500. Then it’d be a steal.
Yeah. It’s faster than a 4070s about the same price and 2x the vram(though unless you have a use case for 24gigs of vram anything above 16 is unnecessary). The only drawback is the PSU requirement.
lowball him for 550 and say u can pick it up in 10mins
24GB VRAM is the only major advantage of 3090 vs the 4070s. Useful if you also want to run some ML models locally that require that much VRAM.
Used card = no varranty. If it fails after two months, you can only salvage some money back selling it for parts.
Also the extra ~150w power consumption adds up over time to a hefty sum of money, especially if you game a lot.
What program is that?
Pros when comparing to a 4070S:
– Twice the VRAM
– Slightly more raw power
Cons when comparing to a 4070S:
– No Frame Gen (actually pretty good in story games)
– Bigger physical card size (not a huge deal if you have an adequate case I suppose)
– Worse price to power consumption (and much higher chances of transient power spikes, the 3090 could spike as high as 500W iirc)
– Likely lack of a significant remaining warranty period
– Higher noise levels?
– Might get kidnapped idk
If you really want a GPU I’d personally just go for a new 4070S for ~ 600 or the 7900 GRE. I’d consider this way more if it dropped to 550.
Scam.

Given that everything works and passes all the tests, I’d say that’s a good deal especially being of a rog brand.
as soon as I saw “will ship today” I knew it was a scam.
OP try to see if you can lowball 400-500 by saying you can pick it up asap then the cards would be more worth it
isn’t the 4070 super better and sold new for the same price, maybe a bit more?
Oh, absolutely. I bought mine for €750.
Just get the 4070 super. Not worth it.
Only if they will meet you in person. Almost all great deals on Facebook that are shipped are scams. Avoid.
I would rather buy a new 4070 super for that price or a bit more.
not a good price, rx 6900xt are usually 450$ used for the same performance as 3090
Used 3090s go for 500 usd in my country
Yoooo 600 bucks and some sucker’s kidney is a hell of a deal for the the ‘seller’
If it’s right down the road, ask if you can see it tested. Or at the very least if it’s a scam you know where they live lol.
People who say it’s a scam based on price, I don’t see that at all. I mean, in what world can you sell it for a higher price when a brand new 4070S is comparable in performance with a warranty and much lower tdp+heat output and size, plus newer RTX features too. Even if they were new vs new, I’d probably personally get the 4070S still, and here we’re talking about new vs used card.
Only red-ish flag I see is the product description with excessive use of exclamation marks. I just don’t trust people who write like they’re trying to sell to a 12 year old who has never been on the internet before.
TLDR; I don’t think it’s a scam, but personally I still wouldn’t get it above 450. Seller can bitch all they want, their fault for buying an overpriced gpu that got outdone by a mid-tier card one generation later.
Could be a real deal. But the snake oil sales pitch in the description gives me pause.
Anything Ultra 1440 and up, 3090 seems to get better fps than 4070 according to toms https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html
I wouldn’t say it’s worth it. I would use that money for a new card.
No. For that price, you can get a new 40 series gpu.
scam
3090 are not worth it unless you are using it for Ai related tasks. If you need it for gaming, better off buying a 4070 super > any 3090 for gaming.
The description sounds like ChatGPT bullshit.
The title looks like a copy-paste of the Amazon listing.
The image is found everywhere by reverse search image engines.
Ain’t no way that isn’t a scam.
In this case “Ships today” means “I scam you today”.
Nope
I bought one close to perfectly new from a miner guy (a miner, not a minor). The card was run undervolted and basically didn’t show any wear and tear. At least in my case it was a bargain instead of buying the same card from a gamerkid torturing the card with max settings.
Yay organ harvesting
