For 500? I don't think so.

See Csimbi, it's just like I told you few days ago... :/ It sucks, but that doesn't change the facts : you can pay off one card within in 2 to 3 months, or, for a long haul (hodl to crypto) you just might pay off the all 8 of them from one rig in 2 years from 6 months of that rig mining, if you like to wait for it to gain even more value (next step for eth is above $2000...but it will fall down in price before that. That will be the time to buy used cards, like rx580 8gb for <150$ kind of deal...).

What gets me is this: why even bother mining now? If you have 8x500 US$, just buy BTC or ETH once it plunges down again, then simply wait for the next pump. No need to bother with all this, unless electricity is free (it is for some farms that steal electricity, but those are more likely to use antminers and mine BTC directly...)

I mean, fuck mining cryptos, I need a new gaming card at something approaching MSRP. MSRP is already too much for a 3080. They're just scamming people now because they can.
