..and guess the rumored 1800 bucks is true. WTF.


Its not intended to be the consumer gaming cards. Its a workstation card, like the Quaddro.

It's crazy that they sold out of stock of both versions almost instantly, they are apparently beastly as frick cards for those that need that type of thing.

Thankfully I make enough money that I don't have to worry about that kind of shite, too much work to make money that way.

Feel the exact same way. Its pennies on a dollar to me. An extra $500 a month is nice but $500 is much less than my day rate, not wasting my free time on that BS.

No man. You have a kid right? So on your off time you rather spend time with your family, not waste time setting up to have 1-2months of good profits mining.

The noise is the biggest issue. I had to move mine to the garage in 2013 but then it got a little too for them in there. It is cruise control once the setup if running stable as a whole and you are in a routine, just rather do other stuff with my time. Because as an adult, it really is pennies on the dollar unless you have a huge assortment of hardware.

You know what really is elitist now?

Microsoft Surface line. I want a Surface Pro but fckk, the pen and keyboard does not come with it anymore! You have to spend like $250 extra just for the basics. That is some BS stuff.

Yeah that is joke. 4GB isn't enough to support chrome with all extensions.

So I was going to get the new iPad but want to use a pen. Well you need to buy the Pro for pen use. Fckk all these products.
