they will scalp anything, bet we see some on the auction place soon enough
Yeah we are at a point where people do genuinely try and scalp any new product.
I saw some idiots trying to sell 3090ti’s above retail.
I think what they’re forgetting is you can only charge above retail if there’s no retail stock.
No one would pay 500 more when you can buy it from an actual retailer lol
down again this morning, energy prices is a big cause of the drop in mining,ETH 2.0 wont have a huge impact as no one knows when and or if

Where are you seeing this big drop in mining?
Hash rate is UP

So no factual information that is easy to see like ETH hashrate/difficulty that adjusts to reflect how many people are mining then..

thats likely helped by the LHR unlock now adding more hash on the network also places like NA can have really low power costs nothing like we pay in the UK
I have definitely seen more used cards on eBay when 1 seller is selling multiple cards can kinda figure it out
someone listed 10 gpu's for block sale testerday, 7x 1660ti's plus few others

6500xt still on a shelf at £140 new. Not sure what that means, but certainly says something.

Listing of the cards will be down to some of the miners not profiteering from the electric hikes. We are talking maybe dozens here, hardly the spin that we heard months ago where all the 'miners' were causing the problem. LHR has been unlocked for ages and dual mining to get round it, alhtough the 100% unlock is here, it has only been here for about a week. Checking the charts, the continued hashrate growth would indicate the LHR unlock has nothing to do with it. What we are expecting from the 'flood' globally is not really happening at the scale it should happen if the UK was ridden with all these miners that we were led to believe.
LHR unlock before was pretty poor it spiked the power up and down also dual mining wasnt all that and it uses more power it was more profitable to just mine eth directly
some people are still mining , some are on fixed contracts and already have ROI so even with lower profits now they are still making something
obviously it wasnt just all miners it was / is part of the problem

Means that a new card that's exactly the same performance as a 5 year old mainstream one really doesn't have a market. It was a stupid product that shouldn't have been put on sale. All it's done is embarrass AMD.

Correct, some miners cant tweak their systems if they are not able to tame the power consumption! Again reinforces its not miners just badly applied configs which would indicate they were never miners to begin with just people jumping on the bandwagon. These would also be 'gamers' the ones you didnt highlight ( @uscool ) that were also part of the problem. Many a gamer I see added another card or pretended to 'buy it for a mate/nephew/cousin' which we all know was not always the case!

Other coins hit as well, might stop *new* miners from joining
Whatever the reason, prices arent "dropping" any more. 3070 and 3060ti haven't moved in the last couple of weeks. Still £100 over msrp for the cheapest cards. It looks like thats where it will continue to sit. I dont see next gen coming at MSRP, unless MSRP is much higher
Disappointing isn't it. They've been plateaued a bit north of "fair" for quite a while now. Hoped the latest AMD refresh would put some downward pressure on them, but doesn't seem like. Probably buy AMD instead, they're just priced better per frame right now.
