I would say they have gone through the trouble now and the AIBs have implemented it that its here to stay I reckon.

That's probably a good thing for the average gamer if it splits off the mining hardware from the gaming cards.
i though the new 3090FE won't have LHR? or are the LHR too??
Soldato
3090FE afaik are not LHR.
I have read that about the 3090. Given the asking price it makes sense.
Soldato
Same for the 3080FE and 3070FE. I think it was the Ti flavours that got perma LHR and all AIB models.

Any one buying the current non LHR are cards are making a good choice they should have better value going forward.
Its the aib cards that end up in mining farms going by that vid showing evga and zotac cards all mining. Looks like aibs are selling direct to miners so make sense to nerf their mining capabilities.
Founders cards seem to sell on nvidia shop so everyone has a chance if they are quick enough.
Hoping for a big 2+ million card founders drop one day which doesn't sell out

isn't there a workaround? it should make zero difference.
No workaround found currrently for any new LHR card
Soldato
90% of miners wouldn't touch current prices with a barge pole (if you check back to May time it was risky paying inflated prices with signs of a wobbling market), this was before the crash. £750 for a 6700XT would take too long to ROI same can be said for the scalped 30 series. The FE's were acceptable but you can only buy one per person.
Now the crash has really kicked in you can take them out of the equation. It is only the scalper in the market left. LHR cards came out 9 months too late. We shall have to see how flooded the market becomes or whether its just fantasy.

Nope.
I don't even know what you'd call a crash any more. Bitcoin drops from 60k to 20k to 30k to 20k to ?.. in the space of a few days.
And it's just entirely normal for Bitcoin to do that
Will it go to 10k or back to 30k? Who knows. It's value is based on nothing tangible.

People mining with GPU's are not directly mining Bitcoin. They may trade into it but lots stick to the ETH ecosystem and the Defi side of it.
You can buy Bitcoin without GPU's, or if you want to be active you can buy ASIC machines. Lots of people don't know very much about crypto and seem to jump on the bandwagon as its a scapegoat for the bad supply of GPU's.

You are clueless as usual. Go back to crying about the fact you don't know how to buy a PS5, house, GPU, etc.
Show me how Dogecoin is linked to BTC?

Since 2010, there has been many crashes and bear markets. This is nothing new (only to clueless folk who have just learned about it really). Veteran miners will have built up the equipment many moons ago. They wont be paying double the price for hardware when they can calmly wait it out for morons to panic sell like.. right now in fact!
If anything the miners will be snapping up all the discounted GPU's whether they have been 'lightly gamed on' or mined to death. The fools were the ones paying scalpers the full price.

Since you asked so nicely. The fortunes of ETH, etc, have risen and fallen with BTC so far.
Most people don't have a clue about "the fundamentals" or "the technology". It's all about "number go up". When Bitcoin surges, so does ETH, and lots of others. When BTC crashes, so far it's taken the others with it.
In a few years time who knows. The whole space is the very personification of volatile.
And now why don't you go back to scalping those PS5s you keep buying. So you can "impress" people on the internet by telling them you're going to Vegas for 4 weeks. Like anyone actually cares.
e: Btw Dogecoin is a meme. It was created to be a meme. It was created as a ****-take of crypto. Elon pumped it and a few people bought it thinking it was a real investment. Joke was on them.

So is it or is it not linked to bitcoin?
You live with your parents yet are crying about people making easy money.
Who gives a crap about a joke coin that was created as a joke? Why is that even relevant to the discussion?
ETH and BTC are linked as are many of the other (mined) coins linked to BTC. It's pretty much a universally accepted fact so what you're arguing against I have no idea.
e: Btw when you keep going on about how good it feels to make that "easy money" by being a scalper, you should by now realise that about 50% of people will think you're a scumbag. The other 50% will probably call you an entrepreneur. You already know which 50% I fall into.
