    peoples fears (Jensen's dream) of everyone wanting the 30 series for mining seems unfounded now that I've seen the numbers

    a 3080 can get 100mh while using 300-350 watts, maybe less with some undervolting
    but you could get two used 5700xts and use almost half the power with better results for cheaper

    good news for gamers at least unless we have another mining boom lol

    I don’t think we’ll have another mining boom given than ethereum is switching to a proof of stake system. But since the mining craze and switch the ASIC machines we now have the deep learning craze. Scientists aren’t going to hoard graphics cards the same way crypto miners would though haha.

    guys, i can't find 3080s anywhere. I'm out of luck. Idk when they're gonna be back in stock.. i returned my 2080 super and got my money back but now i don't have a graphics card lol i feel naked in the these streets now. at this point, should i just pay extra and get the 3090?

    Damn dat sucks.

    If youre able just go 3090

    F***itbasically

    got a 3080 :-)

    my word of advice to everyone that is looking

    setup this discord & mute all the other channels besides the 3080 tracking channel

    you'll get push notifications when they come in stock somewhere

    discord.gg/r4aaa8

    had another backordered from amazon but they were saying it may not ship till end of october cancelled it

    yeah it definitely is unlikely we'll have another ether mining boom with POS coming out, maybe another crypto could get insanely popular though it seems like people are more into liquidity mining than using hardware these days though

    and haha yeah true, not many people besides miners fill rooms with Gaming GPUs

    yeah ASICs & all that deep learning stuff seems super interesting

    I feel like we will have ASICs for all sorts of different tasks

    there is a rumor that the new AMD gpus could use an ASIC on the GPU just for Ray Tracing

    Yeah I've never in my life seen such a HUGE GPU... I wonder how the 2021 version of it will look like and perform

    Ended up getting a pre-build with the 3090 and i9-10900k processor. I guess it’s kinda lame not building it myself but buying the parts individually would have cost just as much so f*** it.

    Planning on doing a windows 10/ Linux hard drive partition. Debating between CentOS and Ubuntu. Any other Linux distros I should consider?

    Ryzen 5000 series looking incredible

    20% IPC + 10% Clockspeed increase.. looks like a gaming beast

    gonna be crazy if AMD has the crown for gaming for the first time since 2006

    I really like Debain and FreeBSD, FreeBSD is actually Unix but its definitely my favorite

    the jails are super useful for keeping stuff running in its own environment

    They got PCs out there with 3090 in them?

    But we can't find 3080s by themselves?

    Just doing my first run of ubuntu,

    It’s pretty alright but i don’t really like using ‘snaps’

    Heard good things about mint & arch
