Shit’s hitting the fan big time in the crypto market (and all markets lol). Might actually be able to upgrade my ancient GPU.

Get ready for a flooded used market on everything. Besides the cost of living having nearly doubled, so many boomers were just about to retire and are right now watching their retirement funds crash.

Just in the last 2-3 months I’ve had normies agree with me that hedge funds / private equity shouldn’t be allowed to buy houses. Them buying more houses just makes them a bigger target.

I think I read somewhere that the gpus miners use are generally almost ruined. Would be nice to have them no longer buying up all the stock though.

Huh, I’ve read the opposite, something to do with steady heat vs spiking heat (as a gamer would).

Tbh, it still might be better than my current graphics card which has a faulty VRAM chip that blue screens my computer from time to time. Either way

Probably might. Plus if it’s cheap enough that can make up for a lot. Personally I think the biggest difference is, as I said, gonna be that they’re no longer buying up gpus an masse at basically any arbitrary price point.

Miners undervolt the cards though so…

Some do but there are other approaches that can depend on which specific type of magic beans they were mining. Good luck getting the cryptobro to be honest about the condition of the card.
