ROFL @ Graphic card prices

[Juicy_Quang]

Bought my EVGA GTX 1080 TI SC2 a couple of months ago for $640, now it's almost doubled to buy it.

Unless something major happen to Bitcoins, the prices will stay the same or increase even more.

Nahh, 1060s are the most bang for the buck on mining.

Up to 8 cards, 4 more on order...still trying to find another 6 at reasonable prices. They're a mix of vendors (Gigabyte, EVGA, PNY, etc.) because everything is in such short stock right now I'm having to take what I can get when I see good deals.

Yep I'm the devil.

I have 4 more 1060s coming in Friday, and another 3 next Wednesday. Haven't paid over $330 for any of them which is reasonable.

They can still be had for good prices you just have to watch for them and jump on them quick right now.

This crypto bubble will pop, and/or manufacturing will catch up to it. This is only temporary.
