    Be aware these remanufactured Chinese 580's only have 2048 shader cores, not the 2304 found in regular 'full fat' 580's.
    They also operate the shaders at a slightly lower clock, making them more like an OC RX 570.

    Craft Computing on YouTube covered it recently:

    Which is a GOOD thing- the 580 was overclocked and overvolted to the max, with lousy efficiency. The 470 was the sweet spot from a power and thermals POV- it is always best to undervolt (and maybe reduce the clocks) of a maxxed stressed variant of an AMD or nvidia GPU.

    Originally a German peripheral company, they made Nvidia cards until they went bankrupt in the early 00s. Guessing the name got bought up by someone and plastered on far eastern market cards...

    When I signed into Aliexpress (first time in a while), I saw these discount codes. Not sure if there are restrictions, though49755567-bFeVF.jpg

    Just make sure you buy with credit card, probably worth a punt, albeit not much for a second hand one in the UK at the moment

    Credit card offers no potentially beneficial protection above debit card for a sub-£100-item.
    The least-risk payment mechanism for this purchase would be a PayPal payment directly funded by card,
    providing chargeback opportunity within 120days via card issuer
    and 180days to argue specifically SNAD / NR via hilarious PayPal Poortection.

    Franksteined GPU's, lowest quality binned GPU's are put together and then sold for cheap, wouldn't expect this to last very long

    reddit.com/r/A…rp/

    This thread has some comments thar explain further, these are legit GPU's but the lowest quality rx 580's you're going to get for durability

    Seen these about since the YouTube reviewers all started throwing vids out about them a few months ago.
    Hunt around on fleabay enough and you pay around this for 2nd hand anyway.
    Without the shipping from China and being a slightly cut down version 🤷

    Faulty ones. Looking at sold listings they average about £80
  8. Somersett's avatar
    A 570 (what this card is really- and for the better- the 580 takes too much juice) is 50% of a 5700, which in turn is 50% of a 6800. In other words, an OK 1080P card for pre-2022 AAA games. A 5700 can be had from similar sources for apparently around 150, and is good for current 1440P gaming at mostly high.

    It seems that many of these cards use mobile parts (from AMD trying and failing to match Nvidia in gaming laptops), and hopefully cheap 6800 cards will appear for the same reason in the Summer. With the current series of industry related bank collapses in the USA, expect some serious tech bargains later in the year.

    I’ve got one of these, paid £56 I think. Great for 1080 budget gaming.

    Avoid Scamexpress , your asking for trouble buying this
    kingy666's avatar
    I have to say that I have bought lots of stuff for years on Aliexpress and never had a problem. What was the scam you were a victim of Cuddl3s?

    Sometimes item descriptions are hard to decipher but as long as you read everything on the page you should be fine.

    Was mining 100%
    MagicBoy's avatar
    Mining won't kill the GPU, not like silicon wears out unless it's been massively abused. GIven most miners undervolt them for efficiency if it's been moved to a new PCB with new supporting components should be fine. It's the power delivery and memory that tend to fails first and takes the GPU with it...

    AliExpress is a selling platform, like eBay.

    Came here just to say I miss those simpler times. Voodoo. Number nine. E and S. S3. Tseng labs, trident.... Matrix is still around as well.
    Kankan101's avatar
    LOL yeah I had a Tseng Labs ET4000 back in '92

    Mine's arrived this morning.
  23. MagicBoy's avatar
    Mine arrived yesterday. Looks new, works fine. Nice bargain.

    Gone in a PC with one of those Erying 11th gen laptop boards. (edited)
  24. Kankan101's avatar
    Got mine today. Will have a play about with it see what it is like.

    You can see it's a new board with old bits on it, caps are decent enough. Smell like they have been cleaned and has got that unfinished metal smell which you can tell from the finish on the cooler, its a pretty heavy card for the size the heat pipes are old school ones and fairly thick.

    Looks like they collated a load of old tooling and molds and made something useful for cheap nice bit of recycling.

    Seems to be some fake ones of these appearing now mind. (edited)
  25. toge's avatar
    Anyone been a bit fancy with this? How do check if the bios on this card is a mining bios or a gaming bios?
    MagicBoy's avatar
    Given it's not a mining BIOS, it must be the other thing!

    If anything they're older GPU's installed onto a new card. So new PCB, new BIOS chip, new power components etc.

    If you want to check what you've got , try a utility called GPU-Z. (edited)
  26. plewis00's avatar
    Bargain budget gaming card, not surprised it didn’t last long. Still very usable in 2023 and 8GB VRAM too, puts others to shame. Anyone really going to buy an RX 6400 or 6500 over this?!
    MagicBoy's avatar
    RX 6400/6500 make little sense for an older machine given the 4 PCIE lanes. They're effectively designed for power efficient laptops with PCI-E 4.0. That's without them being overpriced! (edited)
  27. Kankan101's avatar
    Well put mine in yesterday, not fully played around with it yet properly.

    Do have issues with the displayport, tried two different v1.2 cables and neither display any output unless I use a displayport to HDMI cable adaptor and they it works with an HDMI cable but I'm stuck at 120Hz where my monitor does 144Hz. Bit odd will have to have a further pay about with it, anybody else having this issue or has it been ok for anyone with displayport 1.2 cables ?

    Idling at 60Hz is around 45 Deg C with zero fan speed, idling at 120Hz is around 55 Deg C with zero . A quick blast at CSGO and its stops at 59 Deg C with 1900RPM fan speed and is stable fans not loud at all.

    The zero fan speed is either on or off as soon as you come out of the game its totally stopped and just leaves the card at hot and doesn't cool it and it just sites hot.

    I've got it to 45 Deg C idling at 120Hz with about 300-400 RPM. I know it will sit happy at 55 Deg with no fan but like it bit cool myself just my preference.
