Don't they overclock them pretty hard for maximum efficiency? So if you get your hands on one could be it's performance would probably have dipped a lot and it would be more prone to failure but maybe for free it wouldnt be the worst thing ever.

dudes i bought a motherboard with a xeon e5 or smthing, 16g ram, 500gb HDD and my precious baby, the rx580 8g, runs realgood for gaming and other tasks, these parts are all recovered from old bitcoin miners's "dungeons" and it never let me down ever since, i spent 170 in my pc build and still running, my friends would tell me it would blow up lol but hey, as long as it runs right?
So it's crypto miners wasting the graphics cards not the scalpers. Edit: I would just like to make it clear I am not defending the scalpers they are just as bad but he is blaming scalpers for something miners are doing.
The standard doesn't, can say so as a crypto miner. Whatever is no longer efficient or not profitable I flip to a gamer at a discount. Usually whatever I mined get deducted from the standard resell price and disclose the state of the card. Facebook marketplace and kijiji in canada are full of cryptomining resellers trying to sell and continually upgrade their rigs to remain completive. Some do it as a hobby and buy old mined cards and spec mine, paying power out of pocket due to having a small scale operation.
Good lord, they made dealing with the internet far worse. You log on to a site for a hot minute, only to get sent to some “waiting room” because you allowed Crypto-miners to hallow out your website.😒
How can I forget, I needed an upgrade and could not find a single good graphics card. If it wasn't for a hidden Pc store I found by pure luck, I wouldn't have gotten my 3070.
Ide bet a 4090 that them things still work just clean em out the rust is probably surface basically not enough to do any harm so a good dusting and a bit of polishing them thing would be good as new
Nope, the rust looks terrible on those GPUs. Rust also destroys solder causing shorts. It's one of many reasons why no secondhand buyers buy it. The price of fixing everything costs too much.
I had a 1080ti but it struggled for some titels in 1440p so when the crypto boom became less end of 2021 i bought a RTX 3070 and runs better for me. A 1070 is fine for 1080p
I don't get it, I would have at least tried selling them. I am sure a PC flipper would love to buy a heap of cards on the cheap. Test them and sell/ use the good ones in a build. Unless they poured water over it many hopefully most will still be good.
Btw a bunch of those crypto miners weren't even full actual crypto dudes but normal everyday people who saw a way to "get rich fast", so after realising it wasn't an instant success method and after a bunch of crypto crashed they had to cut their losses trying to resell what they could So I'm more than happy to see they failed
Well they would be scalpers if they bought hundreds of cards and used them to mine with. Cause the idea is that you buy up as much of the product as possible so that when the stock runs out they just resell them, not use them.
Is there any way to buy these abandoned graphics. My chosen charity is the Stanford Univ. Folding @ Home program. I would like to re purpose these cards to contribute to their medical research. Any help would be appreciated.
why would you not strip the farm and sell the gpu parts after it was abandonded? its literally throwing away money. even if you sold them at 75% of what you bought them for you already mined with em?
Bro 2080 for a 36 year old network guy is still perfect on ultra settings. I play squad and rust then rust ust classic fighting games . people that waste more then that is fine just know its not required
@@DeadCat-42 What exactly are you capable of owning that is not crypto, then? Shed some light. The numbers you see when you log into your bank's website? The real estate that will get confiscated once you fail to pay taxes for it?
Who the hell abandons setup like that?! Give me address and i go swoop the whole things. Damaged could be scrapped for cash and working ones sold for decent amount. People would likely not complain if they got one in not as perfect condition but for 20€ a peace plus shipping. Even if those are "old" most would still run "old" games just fine and since nothing new is worth to get, hey ho there we go, gaming for decades...
Personally I don't care if GPUs are used for mining cuz at least they are being used. Scalpers on the other hand are indeed just wasting time cuz sure a handful of morons will pay the obscene prices but a majority of the cards won't be used while they are relevant.
Yeah man they sold everything in that abandoned building. So they are scalpers. Makes sense. Has to be the dumbest thing I heard you say so far. To be a scalper you have to buy and resale. Those cards are rotting away. I knew there was a reason why I thought your videos are dumb. Thanks for solidifying my point.
Man, only if they gave them out
yea
Sadly scalpers will be scalpers and probably overprice em

If only they gave the graphics cards out after they made that 200% return on investment, it would be amazing

I'm pretty sure most miners sell/sold the cards at a relatively low price after they were done with them

I play on a fx6300 and a R9 280x 😢😢😢
They are not always abandoned. They are now sold on Aliexpress as "refurbished" or new cards for quarter of their price.
Can you get good ones tho on there? 3080’s or better?
All These new graphics cards collecting dust as my 6 year old rx5500xt is still screaming for dear life
You luckily don't know true pain
@ИосифСталин-э5ц you right. I could be running a gt1030 or a laptop or something
Not my gtx 750ti which was super overclocked even before I had it and it had no cooler only a fan I attached it used to sound like it worked with fuel

what if you dont live near a retail store
@@MarkoVuckovic32 Not as much as a scalper.
@@the_irs_real Then you have a lot more serious problems than getting a cost effective graphics card.

ah, the pump and dump days. Feel like everyone except the crypto bros saw it coming
That EVGA hybrid GPU was a 1080 non-ti version. Or 1070
I really want to empty out places like these
Now replace crypto mining with the AI boom and tariffs and you have the second great gpu shortage.
this hurt me even more when i realized that the first three are water cooled
fore scouse me
They were literally robbing trains to steal graphics cards.
Me if i see them
“THIRTY SECONDS”:
I don't get it, I would have at least tried selling them. I am sure a PC flipper would love to buy a heap of cards on the cheap.
Test them and sell/ use the good ones in a build. Unless they poured water over it many hopefully most will still be good.
It looks like a crypto mining operation in China where most of the GPUs are assembled before the tech ban from the US and crypto ban from China.
Seeing those evga cards there makes me cry
A fweaking scalper?!
They should put scalpers to work on African mines, someone gotta get minerals to replace the cards
why do you have the grindr notification sound😂

They'd be "scalpers" if they resold them for significantly higher than MSRP. If they just used them for mining, that'd just make them "miners"
Imagine how nice itd be if it was illegal to buy more than 5 cards per year.
Yo what monitor would you recommed for the
META ROGUE 760ti v2
We are still feeling the effects of the crypto mining bullshit
I think some of then replace the vram and other stuff on the gpu and sell those gpus for a super low price

Is a Ryzen 9 7950x3d with a 3090 rogstrix a Good kombo?
Nah get a 4070 Ryzen trust me that’s the best gpu on the market😂
Yeah it's Fine since the GPU OS basically the same as a rtx 4070

Scalpers if they end up selling the whole mining rig:

A fake mine and a fake currency. 😂😂😂😂
how many indian scalps for graphics card
Where is this place😅
Aren’t they, by definition, not a skalper if they don’t resell the thing?
If you are buying them for your own mining business or project how are you a scalper?
if they used the cards, they weren't scalpers. even if it's for cryptomining.
why would you not strip the farm and sell the gpu parts after it was abandonded? its literally throwing away money. even if you sold them at 75% of what you bought them for you already mined with em?
If they are using them for mining, they aren't scalpers, still wasting the cards though.
In my day, we used the 5850 to mine Bitcoin and it’s funny. It was always in stock. 😅
As a child I yearned for the mines
I tired mining crypto with gtx 980 ti but was not worth it that time, not talking about series 3000
