that's the sad thing right now, it is scalpers dream market
wish i picked up a 3060ti back in december from a scalper for 650$ now.
even the Eagle OC that I bought in December for under 600$ is upt o around 640$ at Memex.
with increasing difficulties, your hashrate will remain the same but you might be earning less eventually.
thought about buying a rig with 3700x + 3060ti for 1900$ at Newegg but didnt want to deal with hassle of selling the rig just for the video card lol.
I am currently generating about 13CAD$ in BTC per day with 2 cards. will be up to around 16CAD$ once I get my 2nd 1060.
my expense so far is 2 riser cards, a 1000W PSU and 2 1060s which I'll recuperate the cost in less than 6 months.
overall pretty fun hobby to do while WFH and with cold temperature I sleep easy knowing the cards are not going to overheat haha
