Radeon RX 6900 XT LC Graphics cards end up in mining farms

Remember that RX 6900 XT LC liquid cool version popping up at an etailer in Europe a few days ago? Well, you can probably guess where these cards end up right? 



In Europe, the cheapest list is that of the German retailer MindFactory, which sells the card for 1,749 euros, or 1980 US dollars. By comparison, the entry-level RX 6900 XT starts at 1500 euros. After a few days of these ads appearing in stores, Andreas Schilling from HardwareLuxx released photographs of a mining rig equipped with ten of these cards, demonstrating that graphics cards are once again finding their way into the hands of miners, rather than gamers. This is strange in the case of these RX 6900 XT, because the same hashrate can be obtained with a much cheaper RX 6800 XT, the time required to recover the investment is shorter, although we have already seen that some miners prefer exotic solutions even if they are not the best in terms of price performance.

It will be fascinating to watch whether AMD decides to release this RX 6900 XT LC on a global scale, or whether only a limited number of units will continue to surface in certain places, as has been the case thus far. We'll keep you informed.
