Will the card even be much of an upgrade over an old 5700XT which was half the price?

Are we witnessing another crash in gaming? It's very possible. Nobody can buy new hardware at normal prices, and you still can't buy a PS5 or XSEX at MSRP in a store.
Luckily my Steam and EGS backlog can last me for the next 3 decades. Funny thing is i did not pay for like half those games ...

of my 120 steam games i bought about 20 of them and played about half those, rest i got free, and my epic catalog is all free and about as many games at this point and i installed none of those, my backlog will probably never get played, I still have yet to finish witcher 2 so i start and play witcher 3. If i could pull my self away from nioh2 i might actual get around to that, then again most play game on my ps4 at this point As for this BS prices cause miners and bot buying up the rest it can be easily stopped atlest the price scalping online can be stopped it just wont be. All these cards are track via serial, manufacturers can mandate checks and any retailer that sell it scalping prices and is caught should blacklisted and not receive stock anymore, it might be extreme but it will stop it if it is enforced but there is zero reason for them to there card are sell faster then they can make them at MSRP, and them seeing people scalp them for such stupid prices and stupid prices being payed by stupid people will just make the manufacture raise prices even more. with prices how they were before mining crap started all over I lost interest in rebuild my pc and with prices still going and only way find these things now is to really pay those scalped prices I have zero interest Even the prices of 1xxx series have been jacked up mostly 3rd party sellers seeling threw amazon/newegg/walmart other sites that allow 3rd party sellers, amazon/newegg/walmart and other such sellers have so far been very careful about scalping prices https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?d=1070ti I payed 450 for mine there more them double and those prices are from 3rd party sellers on such sites

Nice circus we live in right now . Not released product sold second hand . I'm all in for GPUs locked for crypto.
Yes, and not just by 50% but 90%, spoke to a miner the other day on the ETH sub reddit, said he doesn't give a damn, it still profitable for him. I was enraged.

I just want the 60 series to go back to normal pricing, I feel like I won't be upgrading for a very very long time. I'm all for video cards being made for people who want to play video games with the video card.... like... I will pay money for a video card that is made to play video games, I wont pay triple, but I will pay for one if......................................................... 1. it is priced normal. 2. it can play video games.

Me still sitting on a 1080, but still able to play 1080p higher refresh rate no problem.

As allways, patience is your best friend, but that is easy to say!! I really do feel sorry for people, who desperately need a card for a new system build, or just to exchange a broken one. I never ever thought in my life, that you can make a little fortune with old used hardware components! This is getting ridiculous now.

My 1080 is also still going strong on 1080p - smooth 60fps even in most new games with all settings cranked up. My worry is if it survives long enough...

I am going to buy 1 of these, strap it onto a shovel and then head to my nearest coal face, and let see Nvida stop me using it for mining. šŸ˜›
