Radeon GPU cracking not caused by drivers, storing conditions and cryptomining to blame

https://videocardz.com/newz/radeon-gpu-cracking-not-caused-by-drivers-storing-conditions-and-cryptomining-to-blame

Figured it would be something like that

The explanation of the drivers wasn't very convincing, there would have been a lot more cases from different countries. At least now we know that the problem isn't in the hardware, but what the original owner did with them.

And with that, situations like this one don't do any good to the used market.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti expected to offer RTX 3070 performance for less than $500

Would be lame af unless it's like $300 which I doubt

That's awful. There's something like a 15-20% difference between a 3060Ti and a 3070, is that all Nvidia will give us? Really? Sure, the improved efficiency is welcome, but we all know Nvidia could also bring a bigger performance leap if they wanted.

At this rate, the cards below this one won't bring any meaningful improvement over the older cards, other than the TDP.

Let's hope, if not straight up prey, that AMD (and why not, also Intel) bring good improvements with their new mid-range cards. Otherwise we're doomed.
