[QUOTE="enthusiast29, post: 2298122, member: 86432"] There is no such thing unless the miner is a novice or really doesn't care. If memory was damaged or degraded even a little bit you'd see artifacting in gaming or normal usage as well. I understand perfectly well how memory intensive is ETH mining but if you tune your card well it's no different than deep learning or rendering or ultra high texture loads. You wanna check how much the silicon or memory has degraded on a mining GPU? bump the memory clock by +100 and core clock by +50 and do a stress test at 70% fan speed (2fans) / 60% (3 fans). If you see crashes or artifacting steer clear of that card. You could try going up on memory even more but anything after +200 to +300 range is pure luck and doesn't mean the card is bad. [/QUOTE]
