About a month ago, my RX 580 stopped working after about four years. I bought an older GPU from a friend for a low price. It functioned for a month before failing again last night. Both were lightly overclocked, so I’m unsure if it was my choice or something else. I’m still unsure about buying a new one right now because I don’t want to visit a store and double-check, as local shops seem very expensive. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
