I can't believe the inflated prices for GPUs today.

@GioVela2010: You're acting like minimum is average

And the Xbox minimum is the same as it’s average, That’s a good thing.

Why are we holding X1X to higher standards by comparing its minimum FPS to PC’s Average ?

X1X = 60 FPS Minimum / 60 FPS Average

1060 = 30 FPS Minimum / 45 FPS Average

that’s all I’m saying

PC gaming sucks right now. Get yourself the worlds most powerful console and be set until 2020.

Unless he doesn't want to run many games at 20-30 fps at fake 4k. Or do any real online gaming. Or play far more aaa/aa titles.

You want the best you pay for it. That's life. Should have bought a rig before the bubble, wait for it to be over I guess.

It's funny you're insinuating that the Xbox X is a ripoff and at the same time expect people to overpay for PC gaming.

@Pedro: What a lame excuse. The game should have a 60fps option where they lower the resolution for people that prefer frames to res. DC may not be open world but the base game is more technically impressive than FH3 due to its advanced lighting and weather effects, it still boasts the most impressive effects and lighting system in a driving game to date. In any case, it’s pointless to ask such a question since DC never got a Pro patch since Evolution is no more.

In other words, you’ve already admitted defeat. Thanks for not having a meltdown this time over it like you usually do ?.

When you start asking stupid questions about whether a non-patched game has a 60fps option on the Pro you know you’ve already lost.

It's the 3rd party sellers that are jacking the prices up. Direct purchases from Manufacturer websites still have reasonable prices. Granted, they are always out of stocks.

If you do that, just remember to be refreshing the page every single minute when the video cards come out. When I purchased the 780 GTX as they were first released, a friend and I were both on skype refreshing the page constantly, and we both managed to grab one, but they were sold out within 5 minutes. Stock didn't come back for week or 2 after that and I'm sure they sold out instantly. I have a feeling the same thing is going to happen when they release the Volta line. Unless you're fine with waiting a couple months after release to get one, but then, who knows what these miners will do.

EVGA are limiting the purchase of GPU's to one per household, would be nice if more suppliers were doing that

The solution is simple, buy the gpu you want regardless of the inflated prices.

The average gamer plays around 2 hours per day, so that means that 22 hours every day your gpu is sitting idle doing nothing, if you start mining for 22 hours every day in a few months the gpu will pay it self, so essentially you are getting a free gpu.

So stop complaining and start mining.

Depends. Some places, you'd just break even because of the electricity costs. But no, I won't let my GPU run 24/7, even if undervolted. It will decrease my GPU life faster than gaming.

and in some places there is no electricity......

Your GPU life want decrease faster than gaming, in fact many miners run their gpus cramped next to each other with very high temps + OC for 2 years and still the overwhelming majority of the gpu's survive that without any issues. obviously if you run your gpu undervolt with temperatures in the 50's it is guaranteed that the gpu will survive many years( as many years as gaming), in fact i am going even further to say that 2 hours per day gaming can cause more stress to the gpu because the load is constantly fluctuating, on the other hand with mining(undervolt+low temps) you have a constant load which is better for the electronics.

So glad I already have a PC.

I feel sorry for those looking into building one now. It's basically off limits. All of a sudden, the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X seem decent. PS4 for exclusives, Xbox for Multiplats.

@MK-Professor: Again, IDC. I make enough money. You mine? Good for you. Save some GPUs for people who wants to get into PC gaming.

Nah let him/them buy as many as he can. Im happy cuz people will abandon PC gaming and go console. More players for us, the better

do you realize that mining can help gamers to get the gpu for free?
