GPU Stock.

For sure! Provided you've a little too much time on your hands, you could sell it for almost $400 and get yourself a 3060ti by camping at a Microcenter or something. (It's almost like people don't know that the 1660s/ti sells new for roughly 300-350 and is on par with/outperforms the 1070 (I think))

i've only got an alienware 15 r2 so theres gonna be huge bottlenecks, not only that i live in uk so no where to even buy GPU's

That's fairly cheap, I saw 5500 xt for 500 euros etc.

Ethereum coins are $1100 right now and 8GB cards are in high demand for mining them. God damn fucking crypto screwing the gpu market up again.

Good news for me, as I'm about to sell my Asus Strix 1070ti on ebay as soon as my Zotac twin edge 3070 comes in. I spent $450 on my 1070 ti new, and it looks like I wont be taking too much of a hit when I resell it.

I got offered 200e for 780 so yea ... too bad I need it
