    Thinking of Buying 1080 Mining Card

    I wouldn't give a dime to a miner.

    Radeon 7 (Vega 2, 7nm, 16GB) - $699 available Feb 7th with 3 games

    G-Sync monitor or not I'm getting this card.

    Will the new Radeons on 7nm compete with Nvidia?

    McDonalds makes the most money from selling food than other restaurants. That should only matter to folks who are shareholders.

    Initial RTX performance...

    Exactly!!! But most folks here seem to take on this "It's the Nvdia way or the highway" type of attitude. "Nobody is pointing a gun to your head". Just get the cheaper last gen card that isn't even being produced anymore and be happy. lol!!

    Where did I say I was obligated? We are allowed to voice our displeasure? Aren't we?

    Initial RTX performance...

    And what FPS will a completely ray-traced game run at? 3-5 fps. All they ray-traced now are puddles and that alone seriously compromises FPS.

    Initial RTX performance...

    So you are against attractively priced products? You also seem to be against Nvdia following their past high-end video card pricing, and seem to be quite fine with Nvidia doing whatever the hell they want. No gun to my head but we can damn sure call them for what they are right now. And...

    A few months to implement and optimize? This is starting to sound like AMD.

    Initial RTX performance...

    Where did you get those numbers from? This guy tested BFV with RT and this is what he got. 1440p is a no go for anything but the 2080ti and he didn't even bother testing 4k.

    Initial RTX performance...

    Why is Nvidia selling 2 RTX cards (2070,2080) that can't even play Raytracing games at a decent framerate? Raytracing is a joke right now. Nvidia is asking folks to pay for tech now that isn't even ready for primetime, and doesn't appear to ever be ready until we have cards that are twice as...

    The problem is that we have to pay extra for useless tech.

    12nm AMD Polaris Up and Coming Alright - Pretty Soon Already

    When I purchased the card it was considered high-end. Its still is a high end card. Before the RTX came out: Cards Entry-level GeForce GT 1030 Mid-range GeForce GTX 1050 GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GeForce GTX 1060 High-end GeForce GTX 1070 GeForce GTX 1070 Ti GeForce GTX 1080 Enthusiast...

    12nm AMD Polaris Up and Coming Alright - Pretty Soon Already

    All AMD seems to care about are Mid-Range game cards. In my 20 plus years of computer gaming, I've never purchased a mid-range card.

    New AMD GPUs in 2018

    I thought that's what I was doing when I purchased my Fury card :) I would like nothing better than for AMD to beat Nvidia. Only reason why I have an Nvidia card now is because Vega was 6 months away and I needed a card ASAP.

    New AMD GPUs in 2018

    AMD always too late, too slow, and too power hungry.
  17. Spoonie_G

    AMD, where are you?

    2020? AMD has to come better than that. I learned from Vega as to not wait. And what should we expect in 2020? Cards that match Nvidia's performance from two-years prior?

    Turing based GPUs will carry a higher price than Pascal during the cryptocurrency craze

    We don't know the truth yet. I just find it comical when folks defend billion dollar corporations.

    Turing based GPUs will carry a higher price than Pascal during the cryptocurrency craze

    Is it an american thing to go to bat for, and to protect billion dollar corporations?

    Turing based GPUs will carry a higher price than Pascal during the cryptocurrency craze

    I remember the days when I was able to afford the most high-end cards. Not anymore. I'll quit PC's and PC gaming all together at these prices. My current rig will have to do.

    Would you purchase a card that was used for mining

    How is me asking how the cards are used (Mining vs Gaming) hating on mining?

    Would you purchase a card that was used for mining

    How many hours a day is the card used for gaming vs a card being used for mining?

    Will We Soon Enter A New Era of 1080p Budget Gaming?

    PC gamers seem like they want to forever be stuck on 1080p. lol!! Consumer TV will be at 8k and PC gamers will still be stuck on 1080p. When did 1080p become the screen resolution standard for PC gamers from now until the rest of time?

    Steam Hardware Survey updated with GPUs

    Love to see the main screen res used. My guess is that it is still 1080p. PC gamers got stuck on 1080p and even allowed consumer TV's to pass them. lol!!! I remember the days when PC screen res was always more than TV resolutions, not anymore.

    2 years since the 1070 and 1080 were released...

    No ETA yet for the next generation of miner cards.

    1180 leaks..similar to 1080ti specs?

    They can charge the same price without those features. And I don't think that stuff matters to miners so why even include it? These are no longer gamer cards but mining cards. But they still look like gaming cards. They will figure it out eventually.

    1180 leaks..similar to 1080ti specs?

    Doubt that the price of the 1080 will go down while it can still be used to mine crypto currency.

    1180 leaks..similar to 1080ti specs?

    Unless something happens soon, my 1070 is probably my last video card. I'll just game on that until I can't game on it anymore. PC graphics are priced out of the price range of the folks who they were designed for. I've never seen anything like this in my life. I was willing to spend up to...

    Guys let's support AMD gpu, and boycott Nvidia, Asus, Gigabyte, MSI

    AMD makes crap GPU's right now. They aren't a viable alternative.

    When will prices drop?

    Some Newegg sellers don't . I just put 50 1080ti's in a cart and it gave me the last 24 that were available.
  35. Spoonie_G

    When will prices drop?

    I guess retailers never heard of "limit 2 per customer"? It will take a while for miners to gather enough friends together to get the dozen or so cards that they desire if limits are in place.
  36. Spoonie_G

    When will prices drop?

    They will never drop. Capitalism is favoring miners and 86'd the gamers.

    Steam Hardware Survey updated with GPUs

    And there's no excuse for PC's to at least be at 1440p by now. We've had hardware that can run 1440p for several years now. PC gamers are stuck at 1080p for whatever reasons and that was my point.

    OK... 1440p then. 1080p technology has been around since like 2000. 18 years PC gamers have been stuck on that res. SMH

    How does one buy a graphics card?

    What if you want to buy just a card? Like we used to be able to do. You shouldn't have to get things you don't need just to purchase a video card. I can't see PC gaming going on for too much longer if all of the hardware is going to miners. Mark my words unless something is done. This...
