Going to struggle hey. Second hand will be your best bet. 1000+ back order apparently on RX 5xx range. Not sure about 1070 cards
Wait, people are desperate enough to use nVidia cards? eish...

I was waiting for AMD to bring my upgrade for my 290 and got sick of waiting for vega. Now i'm on the green team with a 1070.
Yeah but you're not predominantly mining with it are you?
Nope. It's funnelling massive money into the gfx hardware area which will be a boon for gamers. Also...the 2nd hand market will be swamped with decent gfx soon once they're no longer competitive at crypto difficulty levels vs elec price.These miners are ruining gaming!

OK, there is that. So let me rephrase: they are ruining gaming for me right now.Nope. It's funnelling massive money into the gfx hardware area which will be a boon for gamers.

This is what I'm looking forward to, wouldn't mind upgrading from my R9 290
Don't worry friend...it won't last. GFX is a market like any other...and the market will restore balance to The Force shortly.OK, there is that. So let me rephrase: they are ruining gaming for me right now.

Still have an R9 280X. I even considered getting a second hand R9 280X to use in Crossfire, thinking I am looking at R1k or R2k... Nope, they go for about R8k secondhand! I should sell mine!
He's exaggerating.R8k! That's insane![]()
Nope, it is the price on BidOrBuy. However, I subsequently realised its all from one seller, supposedly importing from the US... So who knows.He's exaggerating.

Oh I see. I don't check Bob for pricing. From what I've seen 280xs have been in the 1.5 to 2.2k range for a long time on Carbonite. I'm not sure about their recent pricing as I'm not interested in buying one.Nope, it is the price on BidOrBuy.

Not trying to mislead anyone here [emoji6]
