I'm on a tight budget of $300 to build a PC mainly for school work and casual gaming. I found a deal on a used RX 580 for $50. I plan to play games like Valorant, GTA V, and Roblox. Is it wise to take a chance on this used RX 580, especially considering my budget constraints? Also, is it an 8GB model?

If it's the 8GB version, then definitely go for it! The 4GB model isn't ideal for newer games, but the 8GB can handle casual gaming quite well. Just make sure it's in good condition before buying!
Yeah, definitely worth it if it's the 8GB model. You'll notice a huge improvement in performance for games at that price!
If you can spare a bit more money, consider looking at the RX 5700 as an upgrade. But for $50, if it's in good shape and 8GB, it’s a great deal! Just make sure you check the condition before making the purchase.
Thanks for the heads up! I found that the version I'm looking at is indeed the 8GB model. Should I risk buying from AliExpress if it's cheaper, or stick with the used market?
