Managed to snag a Gigabyte G1 1070 over the weekend, anxiously awaiting its arrival. Gonna be a hell of a step up from my GTX670.

For those of you still hunting for cards, there's a chrome extension called distill that monitors elements of web pages for changes at an interval you can set. I got my 1070 by setting it to look at the "out of stock" and "auto notify" buttons on the newegg store page for the aib I wanted. You'll get a chrome notification, and can have it text/email you as well.

Can confirm that the Rockville MD Microcenter was keeping some number of cards in stock for full builds. Was able to get a Strix 3070 that way when they were definitely sold out of a la carte cards. They even had most of the parts I wanted. Ended up paying about $450 more than I would have if I ordered everything at MSRP and built it myself with the parts I wanted, but I didn't have to downgrade anything and ended up with a ready to go computer. Sucked having to do it that way but I'd rather pay extra to a company trying to do their best rather than a scalper.

Collateral posted:Why just ETH, I have a guy at work* bending my ear about how much nicehash is putting in his PayPal account for using his 1080ti to mine BTC (I know very little about crypto other than it is tulip lunacy, does nicehash mine ETH?). He's almost certainly mining ETH and NiceHash is paying him in BTC, but he doesn't understand anything about what is happening other than magic money machine.
