Is cryptocurrency still a thing?
Mining is not like it was in 2017, top gpus in 2017 used to make $10 per day, right now top gpus like rtx 2080ti hardly make $1 per day. So you pay 1200 usd and earn 1 usd per day. I like the idea amd wants to create a gpu for blockchain but for it to be successful, it needs to be much cheaper than equal hashrate gpus that have display. AMD needs to understand that if the blockchain gpu is the same price as the on blockchain and yet does the same hashrate then forget, people will always prefer the gpu with display as it can resell to gamers later on.
Also gpu without displays need to have a better warranty than 3 months, gpus with displays have 3 years, so why people will buy specific gpus for blockchain that are not cheaper than gpus with display and offers 10 times less warranty time. No Deal.
