it’s a 30% uplift for 30% more power budget and 30% more cost. the fact that they added a new version of frame gen etc that has both up and down sides is pretty much a wash

These fakes have been going for years and were just scams, nothing to do with bots.
A classic back in the day was an Xbox box.
The Microsoft Xbox was a scam? Moon landing too?
This hurts search results for scalpers selling, too. Good stuff.
Absolutely fantastic, no notes
Why the fuck are people paying $5500 for a fucking GPU?!?!??
especially a GPU that’s not even that good relative to last gen
It’s the biggest generational uplift in the last 10 years. Not sure what you’re smoking.

Money laundering?
I do t think so, I’m not an expert or anything, but I think money laundering is typically done where you can pay cash.
The idea is to pay cash for something so that you can show a receipt of a sale and deposit it into a bank.
If you are buying online, then the money is already in the bank.
The sellers, friend. They buy the GPU cash and sell it online for a clean transaction into their account. 5k laundered per sale
Why the fuck are they standing in line waiting for one?
Consumerism really fucked up our brains.
I dunno but it’s a good time to capitalize on that eagerness and buy a used 4090 from one of them
