No one cares about used card prices
No one cares about inflated MSRP
Retail is overflowing with unsold stock but prices are still sky high
S.Korean inventories are overflowing with unsold chips (especially memory) but prices are still sky high
We're nowhere near capitulation yet. The US will announce Q2 GDP (and the recession) at the end of July. It's still way too early.
this. frickem. bet those frickers are more likely to send the new stock in the shredder than lower the prices at this point
I'm not buying on the secondary market. I want new cards to fall in price not dead ones.
why does it matter if the card is dead
they are dirt cheap so just buy another used one lol
buying on the secondary market means giving money to miners and scalpers, something that should be avoided at all costs
>what does it matter if you can't use the card
>they are dirt cheap
$50 worth dirt cheap?Because anything above that is overpriced for a miner's used card.
Alright, I'll buy a used 3080 for 20 bucks. Show me the listings, bro
t. cryptogay
How many dead cards are you trying to sell?
As if anyone who could afford a new card doesn't already have one. People with any money are going out on vacation at the expense of electronics. The rest are too busy paying for food and gas. They'll be selling those mining cards for scrap and new cards for half MSRP before people are interested again.
And the 40 series will be out before needing to upgrade for a new game
Hope you have an 850w PSU
1000w but thanks for considering me
It's been so long since buying a new GPU was an option that I've forgotten why we even did it in the first place.
More FPS? I can barely tell the difference between 80FPS and 144FPS.
> I can barely tell the difference between 80FPS and 144FPS
Have to disagree with that. Going from 60 to 120+ fps is a quite significant leap. It also improves gameplay unironically especially for shooters. Cringe reference but, linus reddit tips made a pretty good video about it with Shroud.
To be fair, it depends on what kind of games you play. Even in a somewhat action game like, let's say, The Witcher 3, the difference between 60 and 120 isn't THAT massive.
Also, the hardware you play those games with matters: a higher framerate isn't that noticeable if you play with a controller; with a mouse, since your hand movement is tracked 1:1, it's way more apparent.
>To be fair, it depends on what kind of games you play
True, it mostly applies to competitive games with a lot of camera movements and quick actions. Stuff like FPS, ASShomosexualS etc. And ye, it doesn't only matter for display but also inputs
For me it applies to everything. Even classic Doom that runs on 35fps logic looks better when I play at 144fps (interpolated), just because of the visual sensation of you turning quickly and having a better sense of movement.
Shooting games in general are much better, even if you play single player and you're not a "god", the relationship of mouse and screen movement just gets considerably better, it's like you've taken a 10 ton weight off your character and suddenly he starts to act the way you want him to.
I recently played Elden Ring and now I'm playing Dragon's Dogma. Elden Ring runs at 60fps but with very serious frame pacing problems that sometimes make it look like it's at 30 fps. Dragon's Dogma runs at a perfect 144fps 100% of the time on my PC. Even though Dragon's Dogma has more obsolete graphics, in my experience it feels like a game from a generation above Elden Ring, just because of the frame rate.
seeing is one thing feeling is another
you can see the difference upto 240 but you can feel the difference between 100 and 400
Won what moron? There is still no fricking games
I still can't get a replacement for my 1060 which isn't like, only 30% faster for the same price i paid in 2017.
And It feels like i never will what with inflation and transistor costs just going upw ith each not
Same case bro. I think the play could be to wait the 40X0 series release and snag a 3080 or smthing during the shitstorm
There's no way in hell a 3080's going to come into my price range.
Best i can hope for is a 3060 dropping into only a bit more expensive than the 1060 was
Ye I meant when 40X0 release you get the equivalent 30X0. Prices may drop, I hope... Goddamnit this timeline sux I HATE CRYPTOgayS IT'S UNREAL
unless msrp drops as well I don't give a frick
i'm very happy with my brand new 3060 🙂
Jesus frick I cannot wait for the deflationary crash, everything is way too fricking expensive
Deflation hurts the asset holders, there's no way in hell the government's gonna let that happen.
They printed tonnes of money, this inflation is here to stay
(OP)
WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
NOW I CAN BUY A RTX 3090 TI FOR THE MSRP OF $2000 AND I CAN PLAY...
...
...
UHH...

Nah. Call me when new ones are at MSRP.
What msrp? You mean the old starting at 200€ for a 60 series range card? Never gonna happen
I'll by a used 3060 ti for 100$ if it has at least a year of warranty left.
No you wont because by the time 3060tis in any kind of working condition hit that price there wont be any warranty left on them
Even one listed with no working fans would probably sell for like $300 right now, because there'll be like 40 people watching it thinking "hmm, i'll just zip tie some fans to it and save $100
Wake me up when the 3060 is 250$
Even at MSRP none of them are worth the money.
Waitgays can't stop winning .
call me when a 3050 is $150.
call me when a 3090 is 50€
i'm not paying more than 50€ for used hardware
i mean call me when a NEW 3050 is $150.
You have to give me your phone number
just shout really loud
Don't buy, make them pay (and suffer)
Still waiting!
Soon this month Incel releases their new GPUs and Nvidia will bring out the 40 series. Gonna buy a 3060 when prices inevitably drop.
I’m more happy with crypto-trannies finally hanging themselves than a bunch of cheap dead cars.
Games look worse than 2007 crysis, dont buy new cards
but cryptogays told me it wasn't their fault GPU prices were high
They also keep trying to sell you Internet magic beans. Maybe you shouldn't listen to them tbh.
With miners quitting and not spending surplus power meant for entire cities hopefully electric companies can lower their kwh prices back down too.
>tumble
3080 has been $800-850 for the past 2 months now on newegg.
>used cards
no thanks, have a nice day miners.
>3080 has been $800-850 for the past 2 months now on newegg.
check best buy
3070 is at 500 now. But uh frick them.
We are cucked
Why did crypto die anyway? Feels like it just happened out of nowhere.
regulations are coming
also it was pretty much a pyramid scheme from the word go
The ponzi scheme nears its end coupled with bad macro economic times ahead (recession, if not depression) and on top of that there are regulatory concerns.
It hasn't died, hedge funds have forced the price down this far on behalf of their investors. This is the time to buy. After regulation, the hedge funds will skyrocket the price to 100 or 200k. By 2030 it will be at least 1M. Btw, crypto was always a government invention, that makes it much easier to track everyone's spending, etc., but they had to make it look like libertarians initiated the project to get everyone interested. The only really libertarian crypto is Monero, which they will try to ban outright.
There are no games that need anything over a 1080ti unless you insist on playing with meme shadows. Nobody wants to pay $1000 to play with meme shadows.
The true answer is that Bitcoin was used to back another cryptocurrency. Those other cryptocurrency collapsed due to being insecure. This resulted in bitcoin being liquidated en masse in order to keep the other cryptos alive. Everyone else is completely ignorant of the topic, as regulation has nothing to do with it, and neither does the rising depression - both of these will cause the price to increase, not decrease.
tl;dr Crypto let every deformed moron into their phalanx, and someone found the weak spot.
While that *is* true, btc has followed the S&P for a while, I think most retail has been liquidated and we just more stonks now.
A stablecoin stopped being stable.
Why would I buy a new GPU?
AAA games are dogshit these days and indie games can be run on a smart fridge.
NEVER buy used electronics. There should be a law against it. Refurbishing electronics should be a crime.
I bought a 6700XT for over $500...
AHAHAHAHAHAH
/v/ve tried to warn you
https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/589284308
not your fault tho. scalper / brainlet miner jannie removed the thread and also banned me for posting it when it started to gain traction
>Gamers won
>Cards are still massively overpriced with the inflated MSRP
antisemitism
When news sites write articles about this they're talking about 2nd hand market aka miners trying to recover their losses by selling their "read to settle down"-cards. The MSRP is still ridiculously expensive.
