Loads of cards popping up now in Belgium. All low-end cheaper cards.
"Never used for mining, just gaming". Right.  Grin

Yeah I am seeing that in my ads also.

Basically if you put "never used for mining" then most likely you know what mining is and most likely did use it for mining.

If you got no clue what mining is, you most likely didn't use it for mining.

fully correct. Grin lots of cards popping up in Austria too (willhaben at) the prices are now ~100€ less as previous week.

$33.50 for brand new MSI Gaming X RX 580 8GB:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/MSI-Radeon-RX-580-DirectX-12-RX-580-GAMING-X-8G-8GB-256-Bit-GDDR5-ETHEREUM-MINER-/322596953925?hash=item4b1c46df45:g:b88AAOSwmoBZbHwD

Looks like an anomaly due partly to some noob ending their auction after 2am with no min bid.  Live and learn. lol

Same item sold for $499 yesterday:

Locally, Craig's List doesn't have much except for one guy selling for $400.

In the Netherlands there aren't much offers on the second hand market, however there are a lot of requests which state "sell your GPU now, ETH is going to crash". In those requests they offer about 50% of the current GPU value to buy in bulkd. They even made really cheap looking images to convince the Dutch miners  Roll Eyes

I think we should consider that it is not just the BTC which drives down prices, but also the fact that it's summer and some people get nervous with outstanding balances during their holiday. The saying in stock market is "sell in May and go away", guess that goes for crypto's too!

I'll continue mining and just wait for the crypto value to get back to it's former level, which I guess will be in August or September.

Hah, I noticed a flood too. Secondhand prices sometimes still higher than retail, even though they are new in stock now.

thats bc these fools paid double the price of what gpus were worth, they cant sell at retail unless they want to lose alot

fudruckers .

central nj has 11 cards 7 1070's 4 1080 's

all overpriced and not a single 1080ti.

the op is a years long debbie down poster with hundreds of downbeat posts over the years.  he always is calling for bear markets and downer news.

Op take a month off please.  I am tired of reading all your doom and gloom posts.

The rally is coming early sept.  and if you think the one in april may and june was good wait till you all see zec at 500  thats right 500 I said it here.

the 1080 ti will rule for months to come   well into 2018.

BTW it is BTC that has crashed here 3000 to 1900 is a big ass crash.  Dead weight dinosaur  and the developers are rocking the boat due to alt coin envy.

You do have to admit his threads/posts are entertaining if not anything else lol...

We were able to pick up a few 1080 Ti GPUs for $620-630 a couple months back, now it's difficult to find any for less then $700. Thankfully, we're almost finalized with what we wanted to do this summer, so we should be fine as is until either good sales happen again, or profitability bounces back up big time.

i wasnt sold on TI's but i did buy 10 of them when 107s were clsoe to 500, i figured why buy a 1070 for 500 when i can get a ti for 670

man , these things are monsters , Zcash at 700 heck 750 with good cooling which i dont have , currently they are doing 22 mhs each on that new pumped coin

basically a 470 or 480 can do 6 mhs at max at 150 watts

If i could source good 4000 watt PSU's id be buying more 1080 tis , but I just cant find a way to power more than 3-5 on one rig withoute the server PSU's and PICOs

at 200 watt a card  or min 150 if in under power them thats over 1200 watt , so 1300 watt total system ore more

Yeah Marvell1 I moved off desktop PC's to server PSUs to power my 1080Ti rigs. A DPS-2000 works like a charm and I just grab the PICOs from Deepinthemines and breakout boards from Optimizer. No complaints here with my setup other than having to either buy the new risers with 6pin power to replace my SATA ones or sidehacks setup to power the SATA risers off the server PSUs...
Ill check with optimizer and on ali express then, still need to source the 2000 watt psus, do you have a link to optimizers thread?  Ive used finsky in the past but he is constantly backlogged lately

Well I hope I am wrong and I hope your a right.

But we both were mining thru 2015 and we know what a brutal mining year that was. With virtually no good GPU minable coins and only good miner was the overpriced Antminer S5.

If you want to go cheap with Picos you can buy them from Aliexpress for cheap as well. I buy bulk from an Aliexpress and it works fine.

That's still a ROI of 10 months for cards bought at $250

Your calculation is based on gpu only, system is expensive, you need to put the system cost too, motherboard around $150, psu around $200, ssd around $80, cpu around $40, memory 8GB around $80, total system cost without gpu around $550 and that is average price of a system, most countries you pay 50% more on the $550 value. Which means $800 without any gpu, now you place 5 gpus which is also standard per motherboard, your roi is not 5 gpus, is 8 gpus cause of the system cost, $800 is 3 gpus based on your $250. So total to roi is $2000 plus electricity is around $0.20, now let's see,  profit per day is $3.40, $2000 divided per $3.40 = 590 days to roi, that is almost 2 years.

You're way overbuilding the base rig...

100 for a mobo
130 for a psu
30 for a usb stick
50 for a cpu
10 for 1 riser
50 for ram


360 for a 4 card build

the build will last 3 gpu upgrades about 3 years if you do not overclock like made.

360 + 1600 for 4 1070's = 1960 for about 1700 sols  that gives about 8 dollars  power at 10 cents is 1.20 so 6.80 net  x 300 days = 2040 so 10 months or so

That is the price in the US. In Europe or China, the price is 50% higher at least.

Wise as usual Phillip.  I wish I'd bought in with 1080tis like you did, miss seeing them for <$700.  Missed some good deals but at the time 1070s and 4/580s were available and still seemed like the sweet spot.  I've sold one of my first 480 rigs off to buy a few 1080tis now.  Hope there's some decent sales/rebates on them in the near future.

I figure if anything will have a decent resale price after the next ice age it'll be the tis.

You are in the USA. Those prices I stated are worldwide, usually is 50% more expensive, sometimes 100% - 150%. Electricity price worldwide is $0.20.
