I’ve never been able to afford such an up-to-date card. I know it’s not the latest and greatest, but it’s the best I have ever been able to afford!

    One of my biggest regrets when purchasing pc components was not buying a 2080 two weeks before the 3080 came out. I ended up stuck with my rX 5700xt in my new build for like 2 years until prices came back down.

      i mean during covid, 5700xts were extremely valuable for mining, why not sell it then?
