Is now a good time to buy a vega 56?

[spqt]

after the cryptomining craze, gpu prices have come down a lot. Will it continue to go down, or this is about the lowest a vega would go? im looking at the asus strix vega 56 for 489.99 on newegg

Expensive, it draws a lot of power

 

I'd say no

 

for $490 you get 1080 

 

unless you want freesync it makes no sense to me

[spqt]

the main reason i am going for the vega is because i have a freesync monitor, and i would like to still make use of it, also power draw is not a problem i have a 750w psu

good PSU? wattage doesn't mean squat if the PSU isn't good
