This GPU has been bought used in November 2023 and was used with water-cooling by the previous owner.


Once acquired, I proceeded with a full clean of the GPU, re-pasted (SYY paste with a thermal conductivity of 15,7W/mK))/re-padded (custom pads from KRITICAL) it and included a copper mod on the GDDR6X RAM modules for better heat dissipation (from CoolMyGPU.com, it's made of a solid copper plate placed between the memory modules and the fins structure carrying the base cooling solution, the plate is featured in the last picture). As it is right now, and under normal use-cases, you shouldn't have to worry about renewing the paste before 3 to 4 years.


For reference, the 3080Ti is known for having its RAM modules easily reaching 100-110°C, this one is actually reaching 90-92°C at most (usually when running Stable Diffusion locally, heavy tasks for extended periods of times or playing in 4K with highest graphic settings enabled).


The GPU has been used in a clean environment (no pets and no smoker household), never used for crypto mining and it behaved well so far. I'm selling it because I recently upgraded for an RTX 4080 Super.


It will be delivered in its original package, alongside its power-cable adapter (in case you don't have 12VHPWR cable ready for it) and its original invoice.
