Re: [H] EVGA
I'm glad I grabbed a 1080 for a good price about 6 mos ago. Great for gaming. Even the demand for 1060's has increased. I think it's getting so hard to find any mid range cards in stock anywhere that the ebayers are grabbing everything and marking it up hoping to capitalize on this trend. On a good note, etherium mining difficulty jumped a LOT this week making it less attractive. lopaka On Fri, Jul 21, 2017 at 8:47 PM, Greg Sevart wrote: > Well that blows.

Re: [H] EVGA
Well that blows. I've always preferred the green team due to better long-term driver support, and was glad that nvidia pricing wasn't influenced by the cryptomining clowns. I think it's time that the manufacturers try to find technological lockouts. -Original Message- From: Hardware [mailto:hardware-boun...@lists.hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of lopaka polena Sent: Friday, July 21, 2017 10:38 PM To: hardw...@lists.hardwaregroup.com Subject: Re: [H] EVGA Greg, the latest xmrminer for nvidia has increased mining performance of nvidia cards by 20+% for mining so the 1070's especially are in higher demand.

Re: [H] EVGA
Greg, the latest xmrminer for nvidia has increased mining performance of nvidia cards by 20+% for mining so the 1070's especially are in higher demand. It's puts them closer to AMD and the power draw is making nvidia cards look like a good option too now. For some reason the 1080's don't seem to perform as well as you'd expect but that could change. It's pretty wild if you've been watching the trends. :) lopaka On Fri, Jul 21, 2017 at 8:32 PM, lopaka polena wrote: > alt coin mining (not so much bitcoin, but etherium, monero, litecoin, etc) > has destroyed the video card market driving prices waaay up.

Re: [H] EVGA
alt coin mining (not so much bitcoin, but etherium, monero, litecoin, etc) has destroyed the video card market driving prices waaay up. It you want any decent video card you need to get on nowinstock and set a browser alarm and hope you can get your order in before the cards disappear. Rx 580's go in about 15 seconds on newegg and amazon the past 3-4 weeks. Check ebay and you'll see all the shills reselling video cards for about 1.5 - 2x the market price. Any multi PCIe motherboards are also having the same issues and being resold for twice the market rate lopaka On Fri, Jul 21, 2017 at 7:39 PM, Winterlight wrote: > What is the deal with NVIDIA Graphics.

Cryptocurrency mining, though it mostly affects AMD cards.

What is the deal with NVIDIA Graphics. I thought I would upgrade to a 1070 but there is next to no EVGA product available and, what is available is at crazy prices. Is there a shortage of gpu's?
