Used components in Montenegro

Used components cost noticeably less than new ones — how much less depends on the year, configuration and overall condition. The quickest way to gauge a fair price is to compare several listings of the same model; the spread usually tracks battery health and cosmetic wear.

Start with compatibility against your own motherboard and power supply: socket and BIOS version for a CPU, type and speed for memory, wattage and connectors for a graphics card. With graphics cards, ask whether the card was used for mining and inspect the fans, thermal paste and backplate for heat damage. Then run a load test for a few minutes and watch temperatures and any artefacts on screen.

It depends on the seller: some devices still carry the remainder of the manufacturer's warranty, while others are sold as inspected-on-handover. Ask for the receipt and remaining warranty before buying, and always test the device in person before paying.
