Which isn't gouging? Some stuff is just expensive, mang.
It must be boring being a joyless, humorless robot.

you know, those could be empty boxes.
Well I may just have ended up with 8 1080 Ti cards.
The way I put it was that I need it to make $500 in 3 months. Then I cash out, because at least I can get $500 for it when I have to junk it. So in 3 months I get my money back. Everything else is a bonus.
When my 1 1080 Ti made $50 in 1 week with on and off mining, it just pushed me over the edge to build the damn rig.
Well, I just payed thru the nose for a Vega 56 card, but I want to run my freesync monitor and 1440p is so far beyond the RX 580's capability that its kind of laughable. I'll just sell the 580 I got for cheap to offset the Vega card I guess.
Id love to get into bit coining if stuff would stay the same. Currently your $1000 1080ti makes $1000 every six months, in december it was making $2000 every six months. Scale that up to a $100,000 rig and you would not have to work. However god knows what the cost of a coin will be in six months, and what the difficulty curve will be.
E.g. electricity (most residential houses have a 200A circuit, which about 100A goes to the AC/Kitchen/laundry) and heat.
Where did you get your Vega56 from and do you mind if I ask how much you paid?
damn I'm glad I built this pc when I did. this 1070 is $600 now, was $300. I feel bad for people looking to get a new card. I would check local retailers.
Lots of cards coming up in the FS/FT forums here. Still at inflated prices but that bubble seems to be bursting here soon.
People are so fucking stupid. Everything has to be a scam. No one wants to do any legitimate work. Fucking losers.
With another 10% drop in bitcoin and ethereum the majrity of so-called miners will be flushed out and their will be a huge glut of used Vega and 580;s on the market. New prices will fall down to list and maybe below list. Also ddr5. ddr5X , and HBM2 production is ramping up quickly. By the end of March memory prices will be dropping significantly. These two factors of glut oif used product and excess production will lead to a buyers market for about 6 months maybe longer. I am looking forward to getting a second vega 56 reference so I can put it under water like my first one or by a factory cooled Vega 64 and runi it togrther with my custom cooled Vega 56. That should increase my fps at 4k by at least 40 fps . Just waiting for the big price drop.
I also bought 8 cards. They haven't arrived but my ROI has gone up from 6 months to 9 and seems to be worse by the minute.
