    I bought an RX480 6 years ago and while it probably can’t run the most modern games, it’s still a trusty work horse for the ones I still play.

    At one point I realised that my games have been crashing with BSOD for a year because the cooling paste melted and spread all around the chip. Fixed it, started working with no issues.

    Its right fan was so loud that I thought it was shredding some plastic part. I replaced it, was fine for a week, it’s loud as hell again. But it’s still working like nothing happened.
