Don't know if it was you but someone pointed out a few months ago that the 7900 was the last 24GB card to be found for less than $1k and I grabbed one as an upgrade from a 3070. Running local models it's less reliable than Claude at work, but not by much, and it was a good upgrade for gaming.
Before the return period was up it had gone from ~$900 to past $1.2k and I wasn't eligible for a repair/replacement just a refund, the market is completely sideways.
I got one used for 600€ not long ago, sold my 6900XT for 450€, very happy
Nice, that’s quite a deal!
Yeah, it might’ve been me and glad to hear you got while the getting was still good.
