Colorful to offer up to $1000 for used GeForce RTX GPU when buying a new card
The company wants to pay for used graphics cards.
This might be the best upgrade option for gamers living in China, and those who already own Colorful GPUs. The company has announced a new trade-in program for RTX 30, RTX 20 and even GTX 16 cards, when buying a newer RTX 40 models. The official GPU even features mid-range cards from the Turing era such as GTX 1660 SUPER or RTX 2060, for which Colorful is willing to pay 108 to 130 USD. What is important to note is that only Colorful GPUs are eligible for trade-in.
Those with high-end RTX 3090 series should be pleased to know that their cards are eligible for an 860 to 1041 USD refund once Colorful staff has reviewed the card. The value suggested by Colorful is even higher than current second-hand prices on platforms on eBay, but the second-hand value may vary depending on the region.
