It solves some, but Not so much

They just want to earn more money from the flippers :(
If ABSD does not stop flippers
there is nothing Nvidia can do that will stop flippers from profiteering.
It just means whatever Nvidia does, is to shift the flippers into the more ATAS flippers, and since there are less flippers, the ATAS flippers can flip for more.

Eg
Previously, flippers flip GTXs aka Roti Prata at the roadside
Then Nvidia say all ingredients now more expensive, need to be regulated.
Roadside stalls get closed down
Flippers have to end up going to 5 star restaurant to flip their wares
Price will not be as cheap as the roadside
Goods will still be the same
Guess who ends up paying more....

i think buying those 2nd hand gtx 1060-1080 is risky since mining the setup gets super hot and generally not favourable for hardware with such temps. if shopping for 2nd hand think not buy from miners is very important

Definitely risky
Running the card at Max load for 24/7
6 months of mining = 2-3y of gaming

Problem is:
Its not easy to tell who has been using the card to mine or not

Okay, I've just read some interesting article regarding with Cloud gaming service like GeForce NOW.

It's currently on EU/NA close beta, I was wondering if when they'll release it for Asia Pacific Market :p This will really solve lots of headaches hehe. :s13::s13::s13:

And it is not cheap. Prepared to pay lan shop rates...
