hwid bans on used parts

[=)]

Hi. I want to know if I can somehow find if used pc has hwid ban.
Thanks.

Only way to find out if a game has banned a system is by trying to play the game.

Hardware IDs and MAC adresses can be spoofed. HW ID bans aren't that effective to get rid of the more persistent cheaters.

So I have to risk my csgo account for it? :/

As far as I am aware VAC doesn't do Hardware ID bans.

HW bans don't affect parts, only complete system configs.

Btw can I "kill" problem by reinstalling Windows?

Installing Windows from scratch, preferrably by formatting the hard drive first would be a very good idea. Who knows what's on the used machine.

It will delete absolutely everything on it right? Viruses/malwares etc?

And will it make new id ?

Stop thinking about the hardware ID, no anticheat being worth called one would ever ban IPs or HardwareIDs. VAC certainly doesn't.

Wb battle eye for r6 (not for fortnite) also what about gta 5 anticheat?

VAC looks at the steam account.

RockStar looks at your SocialClub account.

Neither cares what hardware you have.
