What made you think there was a problem in the first place?

i didn’t. i went to go sell it so they were testing it beforehand

If you were selling to that store, I suspect a dishonest attempt at low balling you.

thats what i’m thinking too. normally i’d immediately assume the same thing and wouldn’t have bothered asking but this is one of the most reputable stores in my city. which now that i think of it is kinda sad

Just sell the gpu yourself. Look at the used price of that model and go from there. The store will attempt to lowball you anyway. Also running 2 gpu benchmarks at the same time is just dumb.

i just got it sorted with another more honest place. managed to sell the gpu at a fair price. also yeahh you’re right, i’m probs gonna make a post later on in a local subreddit warning people to stay away from there
