Not really, I just have a 560 Ti and TITAN X (Pascal) in the closet.

Edt: I wouldn't, but they make splitters.

Power draw over that rail not bring enough. Depends on the card.

I want to begin flipping base cards. Really just base rookies before the ramp up at the start of 2021 season.


I've been making a pretty solid secondary income on flipping pokes up until November.

Now every neckbearded loser takes all their trump bucks and dumps it into this stuff to try and make a quick flip

This is one I might get, it barely fits graded vertically.

Right now I just keep them in a camera bag.

Yep, won't be good until after april imo.

For sports, just make sure to always get in before the seasonal ramp up.

Rumor has it that Best Buy will have a GPU drop tomorrow starting at 10am/est. not sure if it’s just the 6700xt, but it’s worth looking into.

I've wanted to make a little display shelf for my stuff, but I haven't found anything I've liked yet.

When looking for one of those display boxes for you, I can't across a lot of those display frames that look nice

For what, mining maybe?

That is a ridiculous price for the performance.

yeah....

got my Biden Bucks and it's the only "sure-fire" way i know i can get an extra card.


i plan on throwing it in my old PC from 2013 and just let it ride 24/7/365 in conjunction with my current PC. i can shut my current PC off though when i want to game while still making some money off the other PC.

so it appears that the 3060ti and the 3070 have the same hashrate.

Hard no for me.

I absolutely refuse to buy a card for that performance for that atrocity of a price.
