I'd be more worried about the fans though, if they're not made with a long-lasting bearing. So there will be brands or models that'll be more (or less) prone to have issues with the fans.

I think the Titan V has some kind of machine learning built in just for things like that, but I'm not sure how well it works.

Has anyone tried HDD mining yet? Ive got a few 8tb easystores sitting around doing nothing and im debating on giving it ago. Its roughly 1 burstcoin per TB per day so while its not that great (0.05 USD / TB / day) I have a few of them and could pull in a few bucks every day with no effort and pretty minimal power usage. Was just wondering if anyone else does the HDD plotting/mining thing.
If you're a miner/investor, sorry.. but Yay! Ethereum is slipping today! Down 20%, from $1K to $800. Hope it continues. A nice slide down to $300 would be greaaaaaaat. Let those miners release those cards back into the wild.
Get fvcked miners. Sorry not sorry lol.
Warning: don't watch more than like 10 seconds of this video, it's awful : (

Not sure I would want a card that's been used for mining, I'd settle for miners not buying new cards so other people get a chance at them.
Samsung is reported developing their own ASICS now. Hopefully they can solve the memory issue and then miners can get ******
BTC at 9K. Etherium 800$. Down, down, down!
My dream of building a PC one day, with decent GPU, is maybe possible!

I won't get excited until the GPU dump happens.
There are already cards being sold, but not yet dumped. It'll take a while longer of this to remain but the fear I have is that this bubble is still believed to be sustainable even though most will drop out when they realise they are the bubble.
I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that all the sites telling people to remain calm and now is the time to buy before the next spike are just trying to unload to the gullible
Same could be said for the calls of doom and gloom trying to shake loose cheap GPUs for the larger mining entities to buy up.
Tonight, we toast to doom and gloom. May the crypto bubble pop and stop holding our FPS hostage.
As a side note, someone needs to develop a crypto called FP$. A crypto for gamers.

I believe this, as I do most things you say, honored one.
At the same time my superstitions run deep, and I have seen the insane power draw and heat that occurs on a card when its mining--especially thermal images of the memory modules....I don't understand how some algos stress a card soooo much more than any other synthetic torture test.
I don't know if I would be so bothered by ultra high end cards as they usually have good memory cooling solutions...but many cards used for mining just use air cooling with no heatsink contact on the memory. I've killed cards and I've had plenty of friends/acquaintances/customers kill cards by frying the memory, so I am a bit superstitious.
But I am a country bumpkin and superstitions run deep!
Crytek should use that for their new crypto! You should pitch it to them.
