I want to build a PC but with miners, it's impossible to

>mining

yeah the pro is pretty good I think. worth buying.

also, I am thankful I bought my 1060 before the price hike. BUT I HAVE NOTHING TO FUCKING PLAY ON PC EXCEPT TEKKEN 7.

>tfw I actually bought RX480 in early December before prices went into orbit

Talk about luck, eh?

Also, yeah, I guess in such case, PS4 might be good choice. Depending on how old are your current PC, you might not miss much and still be able to play vast PC library and Playstation one.

Just get a used 970/980. Same performance.

ps4 has no games

Did you know you can build your PC without gpu (because almost always you have old one home already, or integrated one in your CPU)?

And simply play something like darkest dungeon or anything you played up to this point with your older gpu while looking at shops until you find your dream gpu?

Also ps4 has like 40 games total. On PC you will be soon able to play everything (once the emulation gets even better).

Why would the RX 4XX cards be so expensive? They're not even that good. Are they particularly good for cryptocurrency mining or something?

What are some alternative cards that offer similar performance to the GTX 1060 and RX 480?

>>383251871

Yes, they are. AMD cards are actually pretty good for aiding numerical methods calculations.

And when they launched, at least in my country, the cost was identical with 1060, performance was pretty much the same (evening those "brand favoring" titles from both sides) but had advantage of improving drivers.

Waiting is the hardest part, I swear to god

Are these price hikes an American thing because they seem pretty stable in Europe?
