Lol I got in on this being seriously worth doing for a whole solid week (my predicted payout went from $150 a month to $70 a month - 1 x 1080Ti, 1x 1050Ti 24/7) When the 1080Ti goes below $3 a day I'm pulling the plug

I'm nearing so close to pulling the plug on my 1080Ti and just use it for games and productive work*, my 1060 is only good for PhysX so I'll just keep milking that until it's dead. * I swear I am doing productive stuff on it.

Keep in mind guys a huge glaring factor last time with the 290 purge in that during the mining craze it went from a $600 card that was worth $600 against the competition (780ti, although not really, but still) to barely being competitive with a $300 card (970's hit $300 when it all went to hell). I do believe the main reason was huge supply of course but I wouldn't hold your breath trying to pick up 1080's for $200 next month. The pricing should be good to pretty great if it goes down but people are still going to be willing to pay a closer to retail new prices than not, which in reality was all that happened last time too if you adjust for price/performance at the time. The perfect storm would be, say, a surprise volta launch at the same time but I dont see that one happening anymore AMD cards will probably be pretty awesome prices because MSRP was already very low to start with

It's simply the signal of the beginning. Based on the profitability drop, it's inevitable. Can you give yourself a dumbshit tag to go with your anime waifu garbage?

I do believe the main reason was huge supply of course but I wouldn't hold your breath trying to pick up 1080's for $200 next month. 1070s were dropping below $300 at times before they got bought out a month or so ago. 1080s were flirting with $400. I'd say 1070s are going to end up at $200-225. Since miners didn't buy up 1080s prices aren't going to tank as immediately/drastically, but they are still in the same market. And the 1080 in particular still isn't quite enough for 4K, it's a 1440p card still, so it's very subject to substitution by 1070s if the price is too high. I would bet we see $300-350 for 1080s after all of this hits the market. A huge amount of those mining cards are 470/570 and 480/580 so those are going to be the prices that tank hardest. I wouldn't be surprised to see 480 4 GB models hit $100 and 8 GB models under $150. That's basically where they were before the mining bubble, but I think there's pretty good demand for them from gamers at the $100/150 price points. I would be very curious to watch a graph of new units sold over the past 2 years and over the next 6-12 months.

Paul MaudDib posted:1070s were dropping below $300 at times before they got bought out a month or so ago. 1080s were flirting with $400. yeah the 100+ GPU shed mines like the one posted earlier are all 470-580 and no 1060s. I think 1060s are mostly the mid-late comers building smaller 6-12 gpu rigs. Well except for that master businessman who rented out that warehouse in NY. Anyone check in on him to see if hes alive still? It should go without saying, do not buy any thing r9 390 and earlier. I will personally be only be looking at current gen cards with the most intact warranties. Asus and gigabyte are safe bets as their warranties are attached to the card not the buyer. Several other companies are this way but make sure before buying. Do a proper burn in test on the card as soon as you get it to make sure its stable Fauxtool fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Jul 11, 2017 |

Things like those $9.5k mining setups have been on Craigslist for a while now. It is just people who are perfectly happy to hand their shovel to any fool willing to pay that much. 1060 cards seem to be going for $310 on my local Craigslist and 1070s for $430-500.

I'll attempt to get this back on topic. I've been mining directly to coinbase with nicehash, which I know requires the 0.01BTC minimum payout, but I'm now stuck at around 60% of the way to a minimum payout with profitability dropping off a cliff. Is that ~6mBTC going to just sit in limbo forever unless I mine it up to 10? Any way around that?

My fps is high enough gsync should never activate anyways I dunno if it does, but it sure beats cut frames (not the ones you can see either) any day of the week and its nothing like the laughable input lag from vsync so I'm perfectly happy even if it did inject 3ms

yes gsync does add latency vs uncapped framerates http://www.blurbusters.com/gsync/preview2/ http://www.blurbusters.com/gsync/gsync101-input-lag/ that's why ~FPS professionals~ play without *sync but realistically nobody is going to notice the difference

Meanwhile for those of us driving reasonable framerates the smoothing out of latency between frames is super nice.

seems like an apples to oranges comparison when one option isn't even showing whole frames. overwriting a frame mid-transmission is obviously faster than waiting for it to finish being displayed.

Spatial posted:seems like an apples to oranges comparison when one option isn't even showing whole frames. overwriting a frame mid-transmission is obviously faster than waiting for it to finish being displayed. Yes the difference is remarkable, and I had high hopes to start with (and I've played on tons of demos even beforehand) and was still blown away. I used to make frame time graphs that plot every frame to diagnose differences I'd see between cards despite fps saying "90" or whatever and without sync its such a mess, its just so fast you only really see true tearing but you definitely subconsciously can tell when poo poo is stuttering I mean at a million fps and if I were actually good enough to use every frame I understand turning it off but I cant and *sync is just so pleasant
