From the greater gaming community, let me be the first to extend my middle finger (in the nicest most respectful way possible).

I see one for 179
I ain't got a console to dust off.I dusted off my PS4 and started on my backlog after I sold my GTX1070 for $150 profit. I guess there's never been as good a time to try your hand at console gaming!
in November/December prices were still relatively normal with micro center selling 1070 Tis for $470 on sale. Now you have people trying to sell RX580s for $500 and I see 1080s listed on craigslist for 600-1000.Woah... what the hell?
I picked up a few 3GB 1060 cards for a little over $200 during the holidays. There's nothing under $290 now and most of the cards are $300 to $600 for 1060s !?!?!??!?!?!?
What in the actual #@$! ? Now the 3GB cards are toast for price? I thought miners hated those cards?
That was the last of the "real" gaming cards that were even sort of affordable.
Wait... WHAT? I just looked up EVERY video card. What the hell?
The 1080 Duke card I just bought is now $1400? I'm selling this thing. Who needs games when I can pocket $900?
Question for mining types, are RX 580 8GB blower cards worth anything or only open style coolers? Legit asking for a friend who bought two a while back and doesn't PC game any more, he wanted to know if it was worth ebaying them. He got them when they were like $250 or whatever they were originally.
Yes in the short term. If he sells them next week, the market might have crashed for mining gear with the ~30% drop in crypto recently.
I'll take both for $250Question for mining types, are RX 580 8GB blower cards worth anything or only open style coolers?

Good to know, I may buy them off of him for a fair price just to have them. I don't follow the mining at all, still too pissed that I chucked a couple hundred bitcoin back in 2009.
Wow... I tried to sell 2x GTX 980 Ti on craigslist last month for ~$300 each but I didn't get any bites.
I relisted it again and somehow sold them for $400 each within 24 hours.
I have been out of the loop, can someone tl;dr what's going on?
Crypto miners have caused the price of any modern graphics card capable of playing 1080p or above to skyrocket in price to the point of being several hundred dollars over MSRP because they have bought virtually all of the new supply available at MSRP and the used supply is extremely overpriced.
tempted to snag a 1070ti.
Evga cards loading into stock at this very minute at evga.com!!
Probably tough for the miners to use the radiators.

Im gonna be the voice of reason here and tell you all to save your money. You're paying day of prices for hardware that's roughly 2 years old.
Fair enough. I bought a 1070Ti for $519, and I sold my 1070 non-Ti for $525 the other day. Essentially a free upgrade to a 1070Ti is how I'm looking at this.
Most of the newer algos are anti ASIC, ie the are meant to be mined via GPU/CPU.What you guys need to be hoping for is that mining algorithms get so tough that GPUs become useless when mining them.
Then you'll see the market flood with used GPUs and prices will come way down, but cryptocurrency will still be profitable in other ways.
