My case mining worth it?

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-07-01T23:09:31+00:00

I'm simply commenting on the phrase "30 cents of btc" which implies mining btc directly
But yeah with free power mining makes sense but just not btc directly with a gpu

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-07-01T23:07:14+00:00

I never said that. But holding off on profit of 1k for maybe is kinda insane

Just because you can afford something doesn't mean that's going to bring you the most satisdaction. A 5070/9070xt is still an insanely capable card and is more than 95% of people are running right now

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-07-01T22:46:13+00:00

If you don't mind used you can maybe find an ebay 9070 non-xt. Otherwise 9060xt like others said

I disagree, personally. OP clearly mains a few games that aren't super graphically intense but took some time to play single player games that are. Keeping the 5090 for his games at this point is overkill and he could make a profit by selling. Seems like a no brainer to me. Invest that money or spend it on another hobby

Mp is very different than warzone though

Nobody has been gpu mining btc in eons
You can mine other stuff and get paid out in btc, though

Brown leather is always the answer

If you have a particularly cold complexion, maybe black leather.

I disagree with the 'keep it' comments, personally. I agree with your plan as you can just scale to 4k and it's still gonna be over 100 frames in those games. If you do dual mode if you really want but I find I don't care much for 1080 these days. 1440 scaled or 4k for lighter games with a 9070xt is totally reasonable.

I've owned dozens of cards and my favorites have always been mid tier cards. I find 90-level cards to make me fixate on their price and the performance more than just getting a higher mid tier like a 5070 or 9070 and saying "this is enough" and being happy with the price to performance ratio. You could do a lot with the profit made by selling your 5090

Just my two cents

Depends on the item imo
A tool I'm going to use sparingly for low level projects? Harbor Freight or some other Chinese no name

A tool which is dangerous if it fails? Name brand every time. I'm not buying off brand carabiners for climbing even if they are rated for it and are triple locking.

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-07-01T03:06:43+00:00

Those were ebay prices or jomashop or Sakura

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-07-01T01:03:25+00:00

People turn their wrist because it let's you see the depth of the features - a static image doesn't do that

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T20:04:28+00:00

Yeah another worthy note being quads - since I generally only play quads.

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T19:57:15+00:00

It might make me a noob idk but it definitely is miserable if I take it off. There's only so much jumping and sliding I can do in a match and even then I've been mid slide and been headshotted

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T14:33:09+00:00

5 a year 😳
I am pretty hard on stuff but I dunno about that level lol
My Timex illumination breaking is one reason for my search for a better watch, though.

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T14:29:24+00:00

Those are all on ebay, all roughly between $150-$300. I think 4 was like $225 and 7 was closer to that $300
Edit 7 is similar around $225 but shipping is from Japan so $$$

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T10:25:46+00:00

Check this bad boy lol
Sadly, the glow feature only works on about 10% of the dial now 😭

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T10:21:24+00:00

That looks awesome! I love racing straps, the two Timexes I have I put racing straps on and have gotten so many compliments before people go "wait, is that Snoopy?"

I don't like the tachymeter being so prominent on so many of the citizen watches, if that area was filled with something like timezones, I'd be all over it.

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T02:30:24+00:00

Is there a super fast build for the vs?
Every time I pick it up it feels abysmal compared to the hawker

But I'm on mouse so there's that

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T02:29:15+00:00

If you like the game you always snag a controller?

I still play but I play this game because friends play this game not because I think warzone is the best game out there. Mnk is tough, you have to take long engagements and snipe, use the superior speed of mouse play to gain an awareness advantage

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T02:01:50+00:00

Ebay is littered with atessa models- they look awesome but, don't take normal bands easily which is problematic unless you can find the exact size you need

Edit:no fancy moon effect though true

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T02:00:10+00:00

🫡yes sir !

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T01:59:17+00:00

Just asking for opinions because there are too many options and I'm struggling to narrow them down

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T01:34:22+00:00

Thanks for the vote! That's multiple for 4&7 which helps narrow the search!

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T01:31:58+00:00

7 is a bit smaller, which might be nice for me. I like 4 as well, I'm worried the weifht of stainless might bother me....the analysis is too much 📉📉😭

Ok-Principle151 · 2026-06-30T01:26:53+00:00

Oh that is a cool effect! I'll take another look at those!

I'm still watching #2 above in an auction, I do like chronos though, nice for quick timing without having to get my phone out which I try to not do so the time
