Well, good luck with that. I'm not even going to try to make you an offer. I don't need part of those parts (case, PSU, fans, BD drive), and the shipping costs for the rest would be high. |
Well I am not trying to sell it on vgc specifically. I am trying to see how much I should put on sale for on craigslist. I think a brand new pc with those parts should cost around $1500 CAD. |
Oh, I already assumed you weren't trying to sell it here. That would make no sense given how few we are.
As for how much you could charge, I guess it depends more on how much you want. Those are high-end parts, even nowadays, and some of those parts are still hard to find. If you think that 1500 could be a good price, then it probably is.
At last someone is doing something!
Sadly, I don't think this will have any significant impact. It doesn't affect already released cards that can just stick to previous drivers and even if it became a problem, there's so much money involved in mining that someone would hive someone to find a way to bypass the block.
I'm affraid that only a BIOS update or a hardware solution will be able to deal with this, and I'm not even sure about the BIOS one.
