Anyone else thinking of dumping hardware at these prices? I've got a modest farm of around 7-8 GH/s and once I saw RX 580's break $200 I started listing them on ebay. I've sold around 30-40 so far atleast between $200, 225, and 250. I see new ones sold by Best Buy for $279.99 on ebay so I could see getting up around there but I can't imagine going much higher. Not to mention my cards are all unbranded chinese "Ethecoin" manufactured.

I just figured at $200+ you can flip 2 x 580's into 1 x 3060Ti for the same hash at half the power consumption when stock comes available within the next few months (hopefully?). I was thinking I could sit on the cash for a few months but if it's any longer it is probably smarter to just keep the cards with ROI currently at 6-7 months. Any one else got opinions on selling RX 580 8GB's at $225-250+ and or predictions on when RTX 30xx series stock will lighten up?



With 7 or 8 GHs you probably have a lot of ETH to sell with this price, almost 1k USD
It's a good idea to sell old polaris, and replace with 3060ti or 3080s, with this change you will be in a good position about Hashrate and energy, as we know, a big correction will occur, and even with a crash, you'll double the Mhs for watt in your farm, and can keep mining for more time with profit

1 polaris 580 - 30Mhs and 140w
1 3060ti - 60Mhs and 130w

I know it's hard to find new cards, but you can buy 1 or 2 pieces per week, and it's worth, Nvidias are easier to tweak, only MSI afterburner, no need to bios mod.
