Better to try and up the budget a little and go after a better card. The damn 1060 is insanely overpriced for what it offers

Yes, they have a right to use their card. But I also have a right to say miners are out of control. IMO, it's hurting the consumer base of fathers & mothers trying to get their child a nice PC within a budget.


And from a business perspective, why should the manufacturers give a shit if it's hurting one part of the consumer base when they are selling record numbers?

With the same logic, data centers are out of control
Long live miners :)

What kind of logic are you using?
I Want a Ferrari!! But I don't want to spend more than 20k$? I tried telling that to my dealership but they laughed at me :(......... (your logic on another level)
Go on Kijiji and try and find a used card if the prices aren't in line with your budget.

There are 3 REALISTIC options here :

1. Buy used
2. Buy a cheaper card (less expensive and powerful)
3. Wait for the prices to go down


4. get more money?

how's that flawed logic

i do not want a 1070 because they freaking cost an arm and a leg

and im more then content with a 1060 which decent ones go for 400 - 500$?

im not saying i expect a 1080 to fall in my lap for 300$

but thanks for your logic.
