what lovely GPUs are you talking about? There shouldnt be any that are good for bitcoin and bad for gaming due to the nature of mining

I'm meaning gamers that are stuck buying lower performance gpus to suit their budget. Recent months have seen a lot of people gpu mining altcoins. As you say mining bitcoin on a gpu hasn't been worthwhile for quite some time.


Im seeing some broad generalities here and saying "as you say" to something I havent said confirms it. Are you here just to be agreed with or did you have something to discuss?

GPU prices are back to MSRP and widely available

I really dont think the big use GPU sell off people are wishing for is going to happen. Most current gen GPUs that are paid off are still profitable to run and will be for awhile

thats still nothing like the $80 280x dumps. It makes sense that the most expensive GPUs see the largest drops.

My hobby is having my PC run YouTube on autoplay all day without a monitor connected. It makes the place a little warmer and louder but it's a decently fun hobby.

unless they somehow neuter the 11xx GPUs in mining only I can only forsee another GPU drought. Luckily the 10xx are still more than overkill for most games
