First NVIDIA Palit CMP 30HX Mining GPU Available at a Tentative $723

After Nvidia happily issued a driver that unlocks mining on their RTX 3060, I am not sure if miners will be bothered about Nvidia's mining series card derived from older architecture, inflated price, and 0 resale value to gamers.

Easy "fix", just inflate the prices of normal cards further. :laugh:
 
$723 for eventual e-waste.
Yep, unlike the GTX 1000 series that were used for mining 2-3 years back, then sold as gaming GPU's in the Used/Garage market, affecting sales to the then newly released RTX 2000 cards as many opted for used GTX1000 cards instead. Now, it's an nVidia money grab for GPU's sold as CMP cards at much higher profit. I don't mind that, business is business, but to spin it as a good thing because they now have a separate line of cards for mining that supposedly doesn't affect availability of their GF gaming cards, really nVidia? They must take us for fools.
 
That Hash rate is a joke, miners won't waste their time with this, they'll just buy other cards.
 
I am very interested in the next model, as it's speed will be very close to my old RTX 2070 which gets a hashrate of 43.4MH/s.

If that sells for double of this card, then we are living in a time when nGreedia thinks it's ok to sell a cut down 2070 for $1400! lol
 
Same reason on the gold rush, smart people were selling equipment instead of mining themselves and they were the only ones that got richer.
In the last mining boom, I made mining machines for other people. Money was better in that than mining.

Well that is not comparible, those people knew it was very unlikely to find gold but gladly sold the idea that everyone could find gold and get rich, people fell for the hype of it.
Here mining is just guarantheed (atm), you just run your hardware, create crypto currency and yeah thus almost literally are printing money.
Just build a super computer, then when the bubble explodes you sell that hardware off not different then any consumer/individual miner, just larger scale.
 
If nvidia seriously thought that this overpriced piece of **** will stop miners from buying up GeForce stock, then I am Mickey Mouse.

It is, only trolls think otherwise, mining is a fool's game, in the end only people who buy tokens win big, miners win very small or nothing at all and most of them will lose in the process.
