Has anyone else noticed how high cards have valued? AMD RX 580 cards I paid around $120 each for 35 cards, now are auctioning up to $435 each? And that is a RX480! It may be time to sell out. Too much stress thinking and deciding!! We need to make chips in AMERICA! Sunny regards, what to do, 100% POWERED BY SOLAR, SUNNY REGARDS |

Ya, you have to blame the idiots that are mining for fake currencies, bitcoin, etc. Can't wait to see all those crypto currencies fail big time. |

I just sent pair of rx560 and a single rx570 to my son in germany to sell for me. I should get 2x what I paid for them. If it works out I will unload some gtx1060s over there. I also have two more rx570 factory refurbished what should pay good |

The mining craze will slow, Bitcoin rates are dropping and it won't get better until an anticipated coin addition in 2040. It's a downward spiral now for those mining. |

I just shelled out $1700 for an RTX 4090. Ouch. I thought that GPU prices would finally get back to normal since we've passed the peak of the bitcoin craze and the worst of the pandemic supply chain issues. But I guess I was wrong :(  My pictures: https://flickr.com/photos/michael-kwok/ My adventures: https://flickr.com/photos/michael-kwok/albums/72157719215640091 |

I just shelled out $1700 for an RTX 4090. Ouch. That's not really any more than the 3090's were selling for when they came out though. I was buying Amd RX-580 8GB gpu's for $62 each on Aliexpress dot com but they are now selling for as little as $53 right now, the only problem is they are coming from China and can take 30 days or more to arrive, so it's not an order it and get it in 2 days thing but mine does crunch and has for more than a year so far!! I also bought an Nvidia mining gpu, a P104-100 8GB with no video outputs that has been crunching just fine for me as well, It's crunched anything and everything I've thrown at it, it's not as fast as a 3060 but it's certainly not a slow poke either. |
