Can't wait for this crypto madness to end.
- manaskarekar 9y agoI feel the other way, I want power users to buy these in bulk and dump them for cheap on ebay once they are no longer powerful enough for mining. Of course, many factors affect the final price on eBay and it's also about whether you need one today.
- nsxwolf 9y agoRight now it looks like the RX 480s and 580s get dumped for MSRP. After being abused like that.
- Nursie 9y agoThe "launch price" of $499 (or £450) for the basic model was only for a very limited number of cards with a few vendors AFAICT. The prices immediately jumped £100 when they had sold (under an hour). So the "MSRP" of $499 is effectively a lie at this point. What they will sell for when the crazy market forces we are experiencing right now kick in ... who knows. I suspect that depends on the hash rate people can force out of them. -- edit -- am actually tempted to leave the one I've ordered boxed for now, just to see what happens to the market over the next week or so.
- Agathos 9y agoIt runs hot and sucks a lot of power. Are miners going to be interested in that?
- Nursie 9y agoSomebody is, the UK vendors I've watched are basically sold out now...
