the 3070ti and 3080ti come out today.

they are crippled for mining eth.

so maybe don't buy cards for a while.


the NewEgg Shuffle is all 3080ti's

https://www.newegg.com/product-shuffle
Thats perfect timing for more supply

Smart people selling gpus now. Newbies buying it now. Then newbies will sell those cards later because it will paying pennies and not worth spending time. in this market is important entry time and exit time. it same like this you are carring bag and sell to another stupid Smiley and continues it then reverse it you buy same bag from stupid.It is same market like on the street you buy cheap on time you sell expensive on time. This rule of demand and supply.

Yes true, i sell some of my old cards for good money at the moment. I can´t understand people who bought cards for the double price, this cards will ROI in 2 or 3 years maybe, if you calculating right  Wink
In September 2020 i get 13x P106-100 for 700€, now i can sell it for 2500€  Cheesy

Well last summer I bought a RTX-3070's sets @less than $500 each, and I was making $20/day on each for awhile on ETH, so I was definitely getting paid back, and all my gtx-1060, I bought for $100 new ( mostly galax +3 years ago, all still running like champs ) of course at 25MHS paid themselves off very well, at $5/day, only took 20 days to pay off.

Again the problem is that none of this stuff is available anymore

I still run rigs, but the payoff now is 1/2 what it was two months ago, so even though ETH price is down, obviously tons of people are now mining ETH. But's still worthwhile to get a few ETH every month, ... why not.

Last summer you bought rtx-3070 Huh?
Am i missing something here?
From what i know 3070 launch was 29 oct 2020
Maybe he meant last year? 500$ is the actual MSRP for RTX3070 when it was launched so I think he is accurate, if I knew that crypto mining would be so damn good this year i would have bought many more cards in December 2020, cards are so cheap at that period of time

rtx3080ti and 3070ti I do not recommend buying, because they are very expensive and have an underestimated hash rate.
I will buy new graphics cards, but I will wait for Ethereum to change its algorithm. Only then will the massive sale begin. At the end of the year, there will be more information about Ethereum and then it will be possible to start selling older video cards.
Just yesterday read that Buterin announced that PoS will be not sooner than 2022. And if even he says about 2022, i think we can wait 2023-24.
New GPUs series may include LHR, i think that it is one more reason to wait price dump - to wait until it will be hacked.
Where did you get this news from? Can you share me the link? Vitalik buterin is a joke lol I knew they will postpone again, the only update im sure about is the EIP1559 and that's because ETH gas fee is a issue that's affecting the project itself, ETH team don't keep promises lol
Here it is.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/even-vitalik-buterin-is-surprised-at-just-how-long-eth2-is-taking

I think Vitalik Buterin can say anything he want, but his opinion does not have some great value then PoS is discussing.

Yep, since I only buy RTX-3070's for $500, I buy all day long (NOT)


I only buy RTX cards, all else are now obsolete, people are now asking $2,000 for a $500 card and most of the time they are used with no warranty.

Now is the time to take  up a new hobby. Since I can no longer mine ETH with cards less than 5gb I use them to hack bitcoin.

Now the creeps have done the same thing to hard-disks, they have gone up 4x, and the ones you can buy are already dead 50% of the time.

one way or another it is worse time to buy gpus at this price and also when market crashing. if there any left msrp + 50-100$ then it is fine but buying cards 2x-3x-4x price is not fine. The problem is newbies dont know what price range was gpus. For example newbie thinks 500-600$ is good price for gtx1660s and buys it.if market crashes again then after that maybe 6 or 12 months later gpus will be cheap.

It`s too early to dump prices. In the best way it will be about MSRP at the end of 2021 or later.
I wanted to buy new GPU in the first days of 2021, but decided not to do it for the such prices. Now i think it was a mistake.
Same here, I could have bought 6x of AMD RX5700XT at that time from China at very good price, the cards where at my damn front and I'm staring at it but still felt like not buying, I regret that decision, anyways thats in the past right now, I'm sure the opportunity will come again early next year or this year ending

Go on Amazon and see price for GPU yourself, there isn't a big difference from the high price since ETH becomes profitable to mine, if you are waiting for GPU price to go down like me well you might have to wait till 1st quarter of 2022

Demand hasn’t really changed much.
