I bought a RX 480 4GB for $160 on a dank sale from Newegg. I see the same card going for $300+ USED on E-Bay because apparently they are amazing at mining Some E-Currency right now.

Thinking about ditching it asap while there is a huge price bubble and getting a 1070 or 980 TI because all I care about is that FPS in games.

Same happened with 7970's.

I actually made decent money mining with just a 7990.

I've heard of people literally filling rooms in their homes with 10-15 pcs... crazy ventilation and electrical setups.

ive got an old reference amd 7950

but it stopped working one day.

i never figured out what was wrong with it. how much could i probably sell it for, even though it doesnt work? some1 might try to fix it for a reduced price?

I'm going to run it on a 2700K clocked to 4.5GHZ I feel like a 980 TI would already bottle neck it a bit. 1080 would just be thrown away money.
