Why you need a few of them? GPU mining is completely dead. Try different countries - there will be delivery cost, but it will not be so comparable to the price

- ftufek 4y agoFor machine learning, self funding my startup and can't afford the expensive server grade gpus. Other countries are usually above msrp + shipping + import tax, would be cheaper to buy from a scalper.

- ftufek 4y agoThere are plenty of 3090s on craigslist as well, fairly common to find below 800$, but 4090s are more power efficient and it's easier to manage a single rig with 7 gpus than trying to network 2 rigs with 14 gpus total. It's also faster for inference without any model change.
