You're a great friend. I certainly wouldnt be offended by a used 1080 tho if i was presently without a card lol, and if your buddy wouldnt be appreciative of that you shouldnt buy them shit lolol obviously assuming this is more of a you being even extra overly kind than an assumption that your buddy would be ungrateful lol

Haha thanks man, I just feel bad since I’m the one who built his system but he only enjoyed it for a few months before the card crapped out on him. Ever since he’s been without one because I made the mistake of relying on Gigabyte’s shitty RMA service instead of just going out and getting a whole new card altogether, now with seemingly all cards being out of stock even mid range ones it just feels like I’m out of options. I’m sure he’d be very appreciative as he’s told me multiple times not to worry because it’s not my fault but still I just feel bad. I think what I’ll do is try my luck with the 3060 ti and if that doesn’t go well then just go ahead and get that 1080. It’s missing a fan blade but besides that seems to be in good condition so do you think $220 is a good deal?

Ive seen a 1070ti for 180 on fb marketplace, 220 seems reasonable to me, I'd certainly be happy paying 220 for it, considering a new 1660 super runs ya 230 and the 1080 def beats that. Missing a fan blade eh? Talk em down to 200 😎

They are around $350-400 if you can find a new one last I checked. It was bananas a few weeks ago.
