Nvidia not so strong as it once was.
most of the algo advantages are now slowly being FPGA'd
ill be replacing my whole farm for sure this series tho, over 100x 1080tis. i skipped 20 series, werent worth it
likely ill replace with all 3070, but maybe 3080, need to get one to see about the X mem first
the 3070 dosent have that X mem, COULD make a difference, we will see


if ETH hits 800$CDN in next 2 weeks tho, then ill sell some and use profits to buy 3090s maybe :p
just not sure yet , that card is so big dik haha, some of my rigs will need new PSUs and maybe even boards to handle it :/


IF we saw a "pill" for this series, that would make the difference, but with how it was received last time, fat chance of that happening Sad

nvidia started with competitive price (unlike in the past) and they increased power consumption of their cards.

increasing power consumption to increases performance is a "cop-out" for performance-efficiency ratio.... if amd is doing 100 fps at 280w and nvidia is doing 120 fps at 320w LOL 

maybe they knew amd has something nice coming out.

amd radeon vii is 100mhs at ethash, big navi should do 150mhs

if this is true big navi having ~50mhs more hash than 3090 is a no brainer for mining, even if some can argue that that is just for ethash, the HBM new gen might pull off a winner here.
