I actually still own one of those in a secondary computer;
* the stock fans are garbage, I upgraded to noctua fans
* There is a potential leakage issue reported by Der8auer (I can’t find the video), the AIO can apparently start leaking after a few years. Mine is perfectly fine, but it’s been reported by some people.
* I don’t like the sound of that ‘refurbished’ and would want further information; but it’s probably worth the gamble at that price.

150 and i would say yes after testing. I would pass otherwise, just me.

I would be wary of GPUs that use AIOs, they add another point of failure to the GPU. And if / when that AIO fails it will render that GPU useless.

Can you confirm 100% that the waterblock is copper?
Some Gigabyte AIOs came with aluminium waterblocks, and they ***can*** corrode, disintegrate and then leak coolant all over the card.
