Retailer selling broken RTX 5090 GPUs for as low as $1,760 — GPUs were damaged during transport, but include all components on the PCB

French retailer LDLC is offering broken RTX 5090 GPUs for around $1,760, half the price of new ones, due to damage during transport. These GPUs are sold as "out of service" parts with no warranty, but they contain all components on the PCB. LDLC specifies that these cards are suitable for professionals to repair or salvage components for recycling. Despite being defective, these GPUs can still be profitable for repair shops or individuals willing to invest in repairs. It's crucial to exercise caution when purchasing aftermarket parts, even at discounted prices.
