Can someone tell me when it will be time to buy a nice card from an ex-miner for a new VR rig?

I assume 3080s will be cheap not far in the future?

If the price of Eth holds .... probably 6 months for cheap ex-miner cards but I'd presume nvidia has to catch up on stock in the next month or two. Even now you see way more cards being flipped on kijiji so I think MemEx has more and more days where they have shipments sitting on the shelves for a bit.

Also interested in when I can pick up a clapped out 1080Ti in exchange for a pack of gum.

Put my old 1060 6gb to work a month ago at about 21.5mh/s. Cashed out 80cad to paypal today. Be nice if I could make my old computer pay for a new computer by EOY/early next year. It's a 2012 build that I upgraded from a GTX680 to 1060 for 100 bucks in 2019 when gpu prices were bottomed out.

Some wild prices out there

I suppose I should sell my last 970 while it is still worth something.

[ercchry]

Anyone else have their NH estimates showing as wildly inaccurate??

[cyra1ax]

Yeah there's been wild spikes in payrates in the past 72h or so I've noticed. Payrates in general have been pretty good though.

bitcoin price is high right now and Linus Tech posted a sponsored video for nicehash recently. milk it while you can.

[ercchry]

Haha, no... this actually broken. My true pay is like ~$22/day, as expected for my hashrate, this is comically inaccurate haha

Yeah i've seen a screenshot of someone earning trillion of $ with NH haha, would be nice.
for me, I've never experienced any glitches.

@ercchry - 3060 can be unlocked to 50MH/s now
https://www.reddit.com/r/NiceHash/co...therium_50mhs/

looks like NVIDIA pulled the driver out from their site though haha, that was fast

[ercchry]

Damn! Gonna be risky loading up a 3rd party upload, that sucks

[pheoxs]

There's random spikes when NH gets lucky and mines some blocks basically, better to just look at the 24hr averages as you'll have lots of highs and lows.

[ercchry]

Saweeettt... found the 470.05 driver, still had its Nvidia signed certificate, so installed it.

Seeing a touch more out of the Ti’s and the 3060 is doing 47mh/s... at... 400kh/w! So damn efficient! The Ti’s are like ~240kh/w haha

The 1080 FE seems to have loss a couple hash, but running way cooler which is nice, I’ll take it

How many GH can I generate?

I've got an old 1080 (non ti) and a 970 sitting around.

Are these worth selling on kijiji?
