Good choice at $46!

I bought it used for $46 on eBay. It's the 3-fan version from Gigabyte. It runs cool and handles online games like Valorant, CS2, and League of Legends very well, with over 60 FPS. For some AAA titles, I need to lower the resolution and settings, but I can still get around 30–40 FPS. Along with that, thanks to NVENC and NVDEC, I can edit and compress videos using both the GPU and CPU working in parallel to improve performance. However, the card runs quite hot (maybe because it's old). When I tested it with Heaven Benchmark, the temperature reached up to 85°C. It also makes quite a bit of noise. Overall, for $46 used and after a year of use, I’d say it was well worth the money.

Pros

• Still play online game at good framerate
• Useful for work tasks like editing or video compressing

Cons

• Hot
