Topic: i have no reason to believe volta is cost effective for mining at all (Read 210 times)
the new gen cards will be delayed? the rumors has it.. but, in fact the new cards won't be voltas, it would be tuned current generation cards with gddr6 memory.. so for sure there is no need to buy volta for 3000$ it is better to buy two current gpus

Looking at ebay offering, voltas are only sold as founders edition model. I dont see any OEM firms i.e. asus, evga is offering it yet. Typical price is around whopping 3000$. I dont believe its mining power justifies its price. I believe it is more geared toward AI processing. Just a thought. So I think as far as mining is concerned gtx 1080, 1070 is a long way to go to be not overshadowed by newer nvidia cards. But future is unpredictable. It is just looking like this for now.
Yeah so they are voices going around the internet that the starting price will be a whopping 3000 dollars. Nvidia is making a big mistake if they will go with that initial price as with whatever card ATI come up, people will flock into it. ATI has never done crazy prices well except the RX Vega series but that was only for the few months when they were out, now you can find them much cheaper than they were in different online marketplaces.
ebay scalpers always over price new gear to catch suckers .
the titan V or whatever has been available for 3k since last year why would the retail versions be more thanks$ $ $699
