Best value used GPUs: performance per dollar

How this ranking works

Performance is the average frame rate the Tom's Hardware GPU Benchmarks Hierarchy publishes for each card at 1080p, 1440p and 4K Ultra in its rasterization test suite, all from one revision of that suite so the cards compare fairly. Overall is the geometric mean of the three resolutions, rescaled so the RTX 3060 12GB reads 100: a card scoring 200 is roughly twice as fast. These are averages across that suite's games, not benchmarks we ran, and they don't capture ray tracing, upscaling or any one game. Cards the source doesn't test aren't ranked; we never estimate a figure.

Price is the median used asking price from our daily snapshot of each card's filtered eBay listings (parts-only cards, lots, laptop GPUs and look-alike models removed). Switch the basis to the 25th percentile to see what a patient buyer who waits for the cheaper quarter of listings would pay. These are asking prices, not sold prices.

Perf per $100 (or FPS per $100) is the performance figure divided by price, times 100. Pick the resolution you play at: a card that's great value at 1080p can fall behind at 4K, where VRAM and raw horsepower matter more. Open any card for its full price table and live listings, or set up a free alert to hear when one is listed under your price.
