Same here. It was the only way to upgrade to a 3090. This Alienware Aurora 11 runs DCS like a champ !

The prices are slowly coming down as crypto lacks quick profit.

Now we only need to tell AMD and Nvidia to return to normal MRSP's again, that got out of control along with the mining crazyness.

Wouldn't be surprised to see a reversal of downward pricing trend . Now we have a neon (required for chip-making) shortage of some 50 (!) % . 

9700k @ stock , Aorus Pro Z390 wifi , 32gb 3200 mhz CL16 , 1tb EVO 970 , MSI RX 6800XT Gaming X TRIO , Seasonic Prime 850w Gold , Coolermaster H500m , Noctua NH-D15S , CH Pro throttle and T50CM2/WarBrD base on Foxxmounts , CH pedals , Reverb G2v2

Oh yeah, this sh%t hasn't hit the fan yet, prepare for the worst.

I don't expect availability and pricing to not react to the crisis. This will turn many markets upside down and left <--> right.

We will see.

 

Anyway, I gladly skip any GPU for peace

And my Friends told my that I am insane as I bought my 3080 as it came out - at only a bit over retail price. :pilotfly:

14700K | MSI Z690 Carbon | Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC | 64GB DDR5 6000 G.Skill Ripjaws S5 | Asus Essence STX 2 on a Violectric V90 Headphone amp and Fostex TH600 Headphones | LG 42 C227LA & Samsung C32HG70 | TrackIR 5 | Moza AB9 and Virpil Constellation Alpha Grip | Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle | VKB T-Rudder Pedals MK IV 

I only fool around the F-14 - and still having a hard time on it as there is so much to learn and so little time and talent. But I love it.
