I mean this thread is gonna devolve into this brand is better, they have better service blah blah blah, just like the last thread did. Camp gigabyte vs Camp MSI. Camp Custom PC vs Camp Premade Pc.Dolan wrote:And it's that time againprinceofcarthage wrote:Here we go again

Which GPU and what kind of fiddling.harcha wrote:I worry that my constant fiddling with my computer will cause the GPU to die and I will be screwed without a GPU during this shortage.

My prebuilt agrees. Effectively paid 300 for everything but the GPU (including assembly) and thats relatively high end (good cpu, 1 TB ssd) and also a surprisingly large number of things that will add up (case, motherboard, psu, fans, RAM). Theres no way to construct my pc for 300 sans GPU.EAGLEMUT wrote:Yeah PC Building is literally dead now. Just get a prebuilt for less money and less effort, that's the conclusion I came to.
How do I mine, I have a 3060ti. Won't that cause a lot of wear to the card though?RefluxSemantic wrote:Chip shortage + bitcoin price increase.
My 3060ti can make ~100 dollars a month profit through mining. Investors are willing to pay 100+ for such a card because it will simply pay off within the year.
I dont know. I think step one is to throw morals and principles and your conscience out of the window so that you can knowingly fuck up the climate. Struggling with that step so far.Mr_Bramboy wrote:How do I mine, I have a 3060ti. Won't that cause a lot of wear to the card though?RefluxSemantic wrote:Chip shortage + bitcoin price increase.

what cpu do you have, what type of ssd u have, which case, which mobo, ram? Theres no way 300$ pc is a high end, its budget tier or premium budget at the best.RefluxSemantic wrote:My prebuilt agrees.

The 300 came by taking the GPU scalped price away from the prebuilt price as I understand. In fact the system integrator didn't actually pay that price for GPU so the rest of the PC actually cost much more than 300.princeofcarthage wrote:what cpu do you have, what type of ssd u have, which case, which mobo, ram?

Thats the point. I paid €1500 for a PC that comes with a 3060ti, which is being sold for roughly 1200 right now. So the rest of the PC including assembly effectively came for €300. There's no way to get the rest of the pc for that kind of money indeed. Which shows that PC building is more expensive than just getting a prebuilt. Imo right now PC building is for the hobbyists that have plenty of money to spare and like to customize every single bit. It used to be something you could do to save money, but right now that seems really hard to do.princeofcarthage wrote:what cpu do you have, what type of ssd u have, which case, which mobo, ram?
