I have a 144hz monitor so not huge framerate but enough for the graphics card I think. I don't really play competitive games though, so it doesn't matter THAT much. Where I live I can buy a used 6700 XT for close to the price of a new 6650 XT, not sure if that's worth it.
I wouldn’t be afraid of used stuff but definitely ask questions about it. Is it a local listing or something shipped on eBay etc?
It's a famous online shop here. There's a bunch of them but none have ratings. The shop is very reliable though. The cheapest I found is going for $376.73 which is a really good price in comparison to the $400+ cards that are usually available. That said it was used for mining, I'm not sure if that's a deal breaker or not.
I’m not sure what currency you’re working with but I would consider that price I. The US too high for a mined on card. It’s not that cards that are mined on should be avoided completely but they do need to be thoroughly inspected and marked down considerably. T Does this website have buyer protection? Would you also be comfortable re pasting a card and cleaning it? If both of those questions can be answered yes and the price makes sense for your currency I don’t see why not.
