The card was purchased in December 2023 and used mostly for creative work and occasional gaming. It's been kept clean and overall cared for. The thermal paste was replaced about a year and a half ago. I recently purchased two RX 9070s to upgrade two different systems, and this card is being sold as a result of those RX 9070 purchases.

IMPORTANT COSMETIC NOTE: Cosmetically, the card is in excellent condition with the exception that the original ARGB Gigabyte sticker on the side of the card came scratched and damaged when I got it new. It was an eyesore, so I removed the sticker, unplugged the cable from the logo ARGB header, and created a custom Gigabyte emblem using a sticky-backed chrome Gigabyte logo sandwiched between a black vinyl base and a clear vinyl top layer. This is the only "modification" the card has received, and it's held up perfectly since it was done in January 2024.

FUNCTIONALITY: Cosmetics aside, the card is in perfect functional condition and works exactly as intended. No crashes or overheating or any troublesome behavior. It idles in the low - mid 30°C range and has rarely gone above 70°C in my use cases.

PACKAGING: The card comes with the original retail box, which has lived on a display shelf these last few years and is also in excellent condition.
