IVIYTH0S Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) Is anyone else here fed up (I know AMD and Nvidia aren't), that Miners have been essentially ruining any kind of good value for video cards (New AND Used) right now?? I don't know why it bugs me so much, but it does. I know it's hurting those looking to upgrade or get a new gaming system. I can't stand this mining craze and hope it ends soon. Any other opinions on this? Edited February 26, 2014 by IVIYTH0S 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheGamer11 Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 I'm think about selling my 7950 for a profit and getting a 770 lol Mining is getting harder so probably won't last too long Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

road-runner Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Yea I was looking at newegg last night prices are ridicolous for AMD cards, glad I got my 7970s back when they were just under 300.00 now there 500.00 and more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeSoprano Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) I agree IVI, but one of the biggest Bitcoin dealers just went south, their website is down and somewhere near of over $300 million dollars worth of bitcoins disappeared, so it may not be around much longer. Just tried to post the link and won't let me, wtf ? Edited February 26, 2014 by SpikeSoprano 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ir_cow Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 better sell Those cards now , I think the bitcoins market is gonna crash soon . it can only be a bubble so long and with the fail of the cytobank that lost 350 million or 600k worth of coins , I think people are gonna realize its a scam .
