The GPU price hike is here and you should avoid any Nvidia card with more than 8 GB VRAM, if you value your bank balance (www.pcgamer.com)

That's pretty much the point I arrived at a couple years ago when prices never really did come down after the crypto bullshit tailed off.

The latest hardware I bought was a 16 GB kit of DDR3 for my spare parts server.

I bought a 1080 for every computer in the house when all that really went stupid. They paid for themselves in 3 months of mining at night. I eventually stopped because I wanted the cards to last. They all still run.

I wish I could point and click new GPUs at AI and get them for free.
