Pretty sweet deal considering the inflated prices of Radeons everywhere lately.

So by my napkin math, you can sell the RX 580 for around 400-450 USD each on eBay. You can get an RX 580 + Ryzen 1700X combo for 559 here:

That is a 110-160 dollar 1700X if I'm not mistaken (retail 329.00 on Newegg)

You'd better get around to it. The chatter amongst us uniformed noobs is that Etherium mining, which mostly fueled the RX400 and RX500 series, is taking a huge hit: https://cryptowat.ch/kraken/etheur/1d

Yeah it was a huge bubble. When you see the village idiot get into things they don't know about it is time to bail. I think the it is about that time.

All gpu prices are inflated, I might flip my 1060 for that exact purpose, you can still find the cards new pretty cheap, but people all look for 2nd hand for this shit so uninformed people think its a good price lol.
Glad I bought mine a few months back though, because when i bought it for 220 that was a steal now theyre 290 on newegg...

Since I made that post a month ago, it has already recovered quite a bit. Bad news for GPU buyers
