Camel price tracker said it was at one point down to $675, that’s still cray cray for a $400 MSRP card :joy:

Lol, I have that exact card (got lucky at NewEgg on launch day).

To be fair, as an OC model the msrp was like $450 (though the OC isn’t really worth the extra scratch, it’s a beggars can’t be choosers situation).

IT IS DONE!!

Final Grand total with standard shipping:
$968.80

Me to my bank account

12 are currently left in stock at the shipper I bought it from.

There’s an RTX 2070 WITH DVI on my local CL :scream:

He’s asking $400, meeting dude on Wednesday, hopefully it’s in good shape, and maybe I can negotiate/beg for a few $$$ off :crossed_fingers:

The RTX 3070 has shipped or should I say the RTX 3070 box filled with a cardboard brick has shipped!!
:fearful:

My anxiety is about go through the roof these next few weeks!!

That shit is sick. Not good sick, just sick. Bro, you paid 300 dollars more for your gpu than I paid for my entire computer. And what the hell are you going to do with it? The same thing I am. You’ll get ray tracing I guess. Is that really worth the cost?

It was either wait until whenever the Bitcoin bullshit crashed or take my shot now before the vendor shoots the price back up to even more ridiculous levels.

I took my gamble…

Now just hope it pays off with a brand new RTX 3070.

Buddy of mines who has more money then sense got a 3090. I’m like dude currently those suckers are aiming at $2500. What are you playing that you need that much GPU? All over Reddit folks are downgrading from 3090 because the 10% gains aren’t worth the price they paid. Granted he did jump on the PC train last February and also donated his 2080ti to his brother but still!

Fuck no at getting a 3090 in this climate.

He gets defensive when he gets called out especially when it involves purchases of high value. I hope he upgraded his monitor game because OLED looks nice but man that burn in risk is pretty darn high. This cat has a 10K sound system or so he claims. That sound better motorboat my cells if it’s about 10K or it’s a waste of money.

Update on my insanity…

CL dude reneged on his $400 RTX 2070 (Was a Zotac Mini anyways so I don’t feel too bad).

Found an EVGA RTX 2070 BLACK GAMING for $440 on eBay today and picked that up instead.

Mining is ruining prices again, it looks like I can get almost $250 for my GTX 1060 6GB based on eBay completed auctions, this is nuts!

I’m sure gamers are gonna clean up on cheap GPU’s when the current mining wave finally crests, but when that’ll be, who knos :man_shrugging:

It’s pretty crazy. I did pick up a new card, but only because I lucked into it at MSRP. Other than Cyberpunk basically everything I actually play wouldn’t be any less satisfying back on my 1060.
