Either way that's a shit deal man.

I don't see how that fixes anything when people can use custom mining drivers. (it also seems to kind of shit things up for gamers that want to hobby mine on the side more than change anything for dedicated farms)

If the dedicated mining GPUs are good it won't be an issue over time, definitely not a quick fix but nothing else will be either

Uhh they did that once before 3 years ago during the first mining boom. They released video cards with no display outputs and mining specific only drivers.

That'd be true if somehow magically there wasn't shortages of the things to make mining/gaming cards.

I’m no fan of crypto or mining but trying to nerf already released/sold cards knowing they will just use custom drivers seems like a shitty thing to do, as well as a giant waste of time. How about just make your “CMP” card better as more efficient than the GFX card can achieve and price it cheaper to incentivize buying them instead?

Power supply prices are ridiculous and they're almost as hard to find as GPUs.

This is really fucking annoying when you think about the insane amount of resources being devoted to basically do nothing productive.

Here I am, 6 1/2 years on a 980ti.

Saying anything bad about boiling the oceans to make imaginary pretend money that will have no use when the power goes out is communist talk, comrade.

Man I used a MX500 or G500 or whatever it was for a long long time. Finally went back to wireless after my last mouse started having button issues.

People on ebay are super thirsty for cards. I didn't bother with waiting for bids, I just tossed my 1080 and 1070 up with Buy it Now prices set. The 1080 sold for 350 before I could even get the 1070 listed, which sold for 250 almost as fast. May could have gotten more riding out a bid timer, but Im happy with what I got. My video card dealings are officially done for the next half decade or more.
