Hey folks! A friend has an RTX 3090 that they're willing to sell since they've upgraded their setup. They won this card in a Microcenter raffle back in 2021 and have taken great care of it—no mining, just regular use. So, what would be a reasonable offer for me to make on this GPU?

I’d peg the value around $700. This card performs well even now, and its VRAM makes it a beast for workloads. If it’s in good condition, that’s a solid offer—especially since it's still relevant in today's gaming landscape!
If you want to make a fair offer, check out recent sold listings on eBay and aim for about 15% below that price to account for fees. This way, you get a good deal, and your friend still gets a fair chunk of money.
I'd say somewhere around $500-600 is fair for that card right now. It's still a solid option!
You can find used RTX 3090s on eBay for around $800 currently. However, think about whether you really need the extra VRAM compared to newer models like the 5070, which are around $500. That should help you decide on a good offer!
Definitely. If you're leaning toward gaming, consider what games you'll play and their VRAM requirements.
Honestly, the used market is a bit overpriced for the 3090 these days, mainly because of its high VRAM. If your friend is looking for a fair price, you might want to consider other options unless you're set on the 3090. Just a thought!
That makes sense! I guess it depends on how much I value that extra VRAM.
