Current card demand and scalping price might increase as miners scramble to get the last stock of full hash capable GPU's, but that should be a pretty short term issue I think. Pre-neutered GPU's are always going to fetch a premium now. Will be interesting to see how the market changes when...
How does Zotac's warranty handle users that watercool? Will they still honor the warranty? I have a 3070 Founders Edition arriving tomorrow, and considering waterblocking it as well, but not if nVidia will void the warranty if modified.
Getting the 3070FE at $499 from Best Buy almost feels...
Exactly. Everyone here has seen the pictures of piles of GPU boxes in someone's garage, bedroom, attic, bathroom(?), etc. Even a small mining setup of 8 or so GPU's compared to one GPU per gamer, is a large use:use ratio, and only gets higher with the larger miners. If mining wasn't taking...
That's the ticket. Even if it's not the exact item you want, if it's in high demand it can be traded for what you want. That might start to spread to other items in life besides PC parts, sigh
They seemed to spread them out for almost an hour. Kept clicking and missing. I started yelling and grumbling from my office and my wife asks from the couch 'what are you trying to get?' I said anything! So she looks on her phone and scores a Founders Edition 3070 first try. Good wifey, better...
Yes. There will be a surplus of sellers and it will become a buyers market. New retail cards will come down below msrp, further driving the secondary market lower. When that will happen is anybody's guess.
Anyone remember or play these? Too bad there isn't any servers running these classics anymore. Or we could go waaaaaay back and play Taipan! No GPU required.
I wonder if the controller alone will be available without the pump. I see replacement pumps without controllers, but not the other way around. I already have a 1046 I would like to convert to 12v.
I think I have to have matched size for dual channel if I understand correcly. The manual isn't too clear on this, but to have all fout slots populated they need to be the same size? Of can I put 256 and 512 in channel 1, and then the other 256 and 512 in channel 2?
Thanks for the offer though.
I need a pair of Mushkin #990976 256mb modules. I have a pair on my A8N5X already and I need a couple more to make 1Gb. I hope there are still some floating around out there!

I second that! Dave is great guy to deal with. I finally was able to try out my Opteron 146 I got from dave a couple weeks ago. 3.0Ghz as I type this! Sweet. :p
