I'm thinking about upgrading my setup since I currently have a Ryzen 7 7700X paired with a GTX 2060 Super. I noticed that Amazon has some refurbished 3080 Ti graphics cards available for around $900. I've heard great things about the 3080 Ti and that it should last for a few years. My main focus is competitive gaming like CS:GO and Rainbow Six, but I also want to run modern titles comfortably at 1080p. Is this price reasonable for a refurbished card?

Honestly, you should consider searching for a used 3080 Ti instead. I picked one up a few months back for just $300. They're definitely capable of running 1080p games beautifully, but paying $900 seems way too high!
For $900? No way! You can find them for around $400 to $500 if you look in the right places. Plus, for that price range, you might be better off getting a new card like the 5070 Ti or 9070 XT, which will outperform a refurbished 3080 Ti.
Exactly! If you're set on spending that much, just grab something newer instead.
