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.

So a local store is gonna have some 3060tis for $920 tomorrow. What do y’all think? Yay or nay?


Hard no for me.

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

for those of you that like to crypto mine and tinker with new tech, this might tickle your fancy....


Rebtech MOBO for 8 GPUs ($159)

Rebtech.com



the only thing you have to install onto the mobo is the SSD wiht HiveOS. the video shows a guy pairing it with a server style powersupply so its a pretty cool/low profile setup.

Seeing a notification, and beating a BOT to get it in your cart and checked out are two different things. Snag one and I'll pay you 100$ over MSRP.
