pwede na ang 630. but id rather recommend a used hd6770/5770 kay mas kusog. igo pa sa imo budget nga 2k. nya kung mopalit ra man ka og 3k nga card, pangita na lang og hd6850 second hand.

but if you have 3k to spare, dont buy a 3k card. buy a 2k card and spend the balance on another stick of ram.

Yup. Pwede ra man. Di lang ka ka-full-settings. Nya gaang ra man ang CS source.

Mopalit na man gani sya ug card, ayaw na lang ng gt220 kay daghan pa lain options.

whats the reason behind NEVER buying a second hand video card?

Because it comes with risk. You might not know what the card was used for and the seller might say anything you'll want to hear just to pawn it off. The GPU might be worned out due to thermal cycles or hash mining and the damage might not be apparent from initial tests. If you really wanna buy used, buy from reputable sellers because they won't hesitate to answer questions like what the gpu was used for, how long was it used, if it was OCed, if it is still under warranty, and if the warranty is transferable.

"But I buy used hardware all the time and they are still fine to me."
Great. You got lucky. Yet there are others who got the short end of the stick. We can't expect our personal experiences to be the same for everyone else. That's confirmation bias

anyway, OP, buy a 7730, it doesn't need extra power, very efficient, dx11 support, future proof, and can play dota 2 just fine.

You got a point but dont generalize by using NEVER. Its like saying nobody should buy used cards from you also.

You misunderstood. I was not generalizing. That post was specifically meant for OP. Also, I don't sell cards, I give them away
