    u can sometimes stabilise a borderline card by lowreing teh mmeory clock in MSI Afterburner. It is a workaround, not a fix, and it is not what you paid for.

    i'd never buy a used GPU without testing it in my own PC. If the seller won't allow that, it is a no from me no matter the price. but hey ymmv
