Used and new gpus

Hi. I'm waiting for my 2500k sistem to come when I found out that I don't have any gpu options. I live in Romania, east europe, and the prices we're always higher than normal (for reference, gtx 1060 gaming x was 350$, and it was resonable). But since the crypto-curency, 500$ for 1060 and 580, 700 for 1070, 900 for 1080 and 1100 for 1080ti. I looked up for used gpus but they are also overpriced. What shoud I do?

well.... you're out of options.

you can still use it, since it has an iGPU, just not game on it.

Wow.

Looks like Amazon GPU prices spiked as well. I remember 3 weeks ago I was looking at KFA2 1080 for €480, now it is €630.

The FTW3 1080ti is almost €900, I was grinding my teeth when I spent €780 for it.

It's cryptocurency's fault. We should even start a revolution!

Anyone who bought 1080/ti for mining is an idiot. They do really badly compared to the other cards. 

That's an F in the profile pic

If you have to buy the card don't bother. As an ex GT 610 owner I can say with confidence GT cards are not worth it
