If it has some sort of warranty or atleast a 30-return policy I would go for it, and test the hell our of it to make sure its ok before either expires. $250 for a 7970 is a good deal.

I have never had any luck with refurbed parts. I have bought a couple of refurbished motherboards, both were DOA, and a refurbed ATI X1950PRO video card several years ago that worked for the desktop and normal windows use, but had artifacts during game play.
My experience....its simply not worth trouble.

I've had great experiences with every return I've bought. Including electronics. But they are manufacture refurbished and I get a new one if it's broke. Never bought return computer parts though. but since shipping cost don't apply for the return is go for it
