Hi all. I made the mistake that I might want to upgrade my video card. I have a Radeon RX 550 that is struggling to drive two 4K screens. It works, but plenty of flickering under both Linux and Windows.
I looked at a few sources such as Tom's Hardware to get a good idea of what to buy, and it suggested a card in the $300-400 range. I wish. Canada Computers has the cards (GeForce GTX 1660 Super) listed in this price range but all are out of stock everywhere. Amazon and NewEgg have them listed for more than $1,100. These don't strike me as cards powerful enough to do coin mining. Why are they so rare and expensive? Is it the global chip shortage or something else? And does anyone have an idea how long we'll have to wait this out ... or how I can tune my card to support the screens? Thanks! Evan Leibovitch, Toronto Canada @evanleibovitch / @el56
