i refuse to pay this sort of money for a cpu that was released on the... Launch Date Q2'14, so to me thats the 4th month on of 2014 or from april 2014 onwards, regardless if theyre the best cpu ever made for the 1150 socket

Bitcoin is done on cards (Radeons) not the CPU its just blown out prices for something that isnt easy to buy new now.
I would rather have a 8700k for bitcoin.

I would rather have a 8700k for bitcoin. yep i know its done on cards pete but if you havent the cpu power and ability to do it then its a waste of time isnt it, bitcoiner blokes were using the 4790K when it came out for just such a purpose werent they coz it was the best intel had at that time |

If you haven't already look for a (or best offer)and put in what you want to pay and see what you get back trouble is ales finding one that has a best offer option with buy it now, theyre all goin for the auction and best price they can get for it over 5-6 or more days |

I don't think it's the Bitcoin folks, 4790K last upgrade for the socket so anybody trying to get the concept of a little more life out of their systems are probably keeping the prices up, especially if coming from a fixed multi. Here the 4770K isn't that far off the 4790K in the bid only offerings.

The CPU just runs the OS and the Mining GUI, it's the GPU's that do all the work. AMD GPU's are the best, always have been. But lately I'm seeing a lot of Rigs go for sale on Ebay with GTX1060-1080Ti's... this confuses me a bit. I know that nVidia stepped up their game in Shaders, but still not to the tune of what AMD's are capable of.. and for the price too.... If I was mining, I'd rather have 4 Vega's or RX580's than 1060's-1080's... Price to Performance is key. Vin |

Vin RX 480s are they way to go they are better for mining then the 580s also they say the 1070s are the best of the bunch for nvidia but yes AMD leads the pack for mining |

you wouldnt damn well believe this, just went into ebay and this was there, was only a new listing, guess i was johnny on the spot, so i jumped on it straight away, offered the guy 380 and delivered, he said yes, i think this is a pretty fair and honest response from the guy too, im happy as a pig in shit at the moment, im hoping its not a run of the mill 4790, but time will tell Looks like it was fate that you bought it haha. Yeah I try to be as transparent as possible. Because I know if I was spending a lot of money on something, I would want to know all about it. You'll love it and if you have any questions. Please don't hesitate to contact me. I'll send first thing Monday  www.ebay.com.au/itm/Intel-i7-4790k-AS-NEW/152827672475?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 |
