1070Ti's are in stock at Nvidia's website for MSRP, if that constitutes a "hot deal".

Aaaaand they're gone.
Funny thing is, it's not miners anymore (well, I guess dumb people could still be buying these for mining), but resellers trying to ride the above MSRP price wave before it completely crashes on the shore.

Can we expect a flood of cheap GPUs once the mining mania ends?Funny thing is, it's not miners anymore (well, I guess dumb people could still be buying these for mining), but resellers trying to ride the above MSRP price wave before it completely crashes on the shore.
one like you've NEVER seen before...Can we expect a flood of cheap GPUs once the mining mania ends?
I am not sure about this. There are so many coins you can mine its not even a joke. Its gonna stay like this for a while. Unless ofourse new GPUs come out that suck at mining or there is no difference between 1070 and 1170. So miners stay away from the newer GPUs. Then it will be gamers buying the new cards and selling old ones on ebay. It would be the other way around, miners getting cheap older cards since new ones don't give any benefits. LOL, one can hope. Until we get some ASIC miners mining eth and other coins that we can mine with GPUs, it will be the same story.
This is difficult to predict. It is possible that it will happen. If so, the next question is which cards will flood the market and get discounted the most. Perhaps the AMD cards since they are the best at mining. For Nvidia, I hear the 1070 is one of the best miners, so perhaps that model floods the market in the near future as well.Can we expect a flood of cheap GPUs once the mining mania ends?
It is both and been both. Scalpers always out there trying to flip stuff for a quick buck. I think the miners are slowing down cause the ROI is stupid high for the over priced cards. At MSRP it is ok still.I'm sticking with miners still buying them up, especially since GPU prices are starting to fall...because they are hoping it's the get rich quick scheme that it's been made out to be for those that don't fully understand the logistics involved in mining crypto currency.
I can't wait for the 100 people all selling a half dozen GPU's each and all of them claiming "these cards have never been mined with, I'm just selling them 'cuz I dont like them anymore".

I thought nvidia was releasing two different lines of cards. Turing or mining, and Ampere for gaming.
As an ex miner, in total agreement. Sold most of my R9290 cards on ebay. Why would you limit your re-sale market? For a semi modest cut in price and get stuck with the cards when you are done? Nope.I think the problem is miners want some resale value. Coming out with graphics cards with no outputs kills that. Thats why I think it will fail again. Miners will rather grab gaming cards because they can atleast resell them. <snip>. It will be a failed experiment.
The Titan shows as in stock for the moment if anyone wants/needs a $1200 card.

Would only have a possible market if it mined 2x as fast as a gaming card, and cost 1/2 as much, as they have no resale value.I thought nvidia was releasing two different lines of cards. Turing or mining, and Ampere for gaming.
