But if I will get ban on account which is legit. My grind and time will be lost. Thats why im scared and thats why im so annoying with you and in this thread.

If you are so worried about this then don't buy a used pc it is simple as that. Save up for a few more months and buy a brand new pc if you are a paranoid person.

As long the new PC system is clean there is nothing to worry.
The game is not tied to your hardware. I could play it on my new PC without any trouble.

They do,but they're very rare and it's always done manually by R* developers and you really have to piss them off

Sure, you could just format it. But a second hand hard drive is probably at the end of its lifetime. Better replace it.

If you start replacing the mainboard, to probably gonna want to replace cpu and ram. At this point you gonna build a new pc, so no need for a second hand.
