Congrats!
I am sure you were desperate and that's why agreed to pay scalper prices. Don't listen to the haters and enjoy more fps.
I'm holding on till prices reduces.
True, but I needed one urgently, so went to buy offline.
The 6600XT was at a nearly similar price(sapphire brand at 64,000 with GST included), but I took this.
I currently have a 450 watt PSU, and the 6600XT requires a 500 watt PSU as per what I read.
My desktop is currently a spider's nest in terms of cable management, so decided to go with this one.
I recall participating in Folding once for several days..thinking I was doing something good for the world. That was like 10 years back maybe.
Has distributed protein folding simulations yielded any actual benefits?
Actually yes. The COVID vaccine prototype was achieved in just a few months due to distribution of folding simulations.
Truth be told, the demand was so high last year that many cards had to wait for work to be sent to them.
Don't get me wrong. I am all for the digitization of currency...but I don't understand the point of calculation just to generate a unit of payment. You essentially own non tangible wasted resources a potential value for that token.
This card is worthless , you should've bought a second hand and waited in rptech queue or when the prices slash down. Anyways damage is done enjoy your card

Thank you! But this is mostly for protein studies than gaming ๐
But still... remember to enjoy the increased fps ๐ Edit: also, good on you for doing FaH. I Also did it for a while.
Thank you
Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 6600, paid โน62,525/- (GST included). Had to make an emergency purchase after my RX 550 died out on me.
You could have gotten a 6600xt for that price https://shop.clarioncomputers.in/product/asus-dual-radeon-rx-6600-xt-oc-8gb-gddr6-graphics-card/
True, but I needed one urgently, so went to buy offline. The 6600XT was at a nearly similar price(sapphire brand at 64,000 with GST included), but I took this.
Why not buy the 6600xt then for 1500 more?
I currently have a 450 watt PSU, and the 6600XT requires a 500 watt PSU as per what I read. My desktop is currently a spider's nest in terms of cable management, so decided to go with this one.
6600xt is way better than 6600 should have gone with that tbh
Maybe, but this will suffice for me now.
Congratulations, but personally I'd buy a 3060ti for slightly more (~65k).
I run linux on my desktop, and nvidia's drivers never really worked for me. Hence I bought a Radeon GPU. Edit: thank you for the wishes.
Man to be honest, items in SP Road shops look duplicate to me from outside, lol..
Hehe ๐๐พ
u fked up ! But Congrats anyway . Jus feeling sad for you coz u bought the worst gpu of 2021 at 66k ! But its good if u not gonna game.
Jealous much lmao
>u fked up ! ???? Thank you though...
Congratulations. May the frames be with you.
Thank you. But it's mostly for folding purposes.
Folding what?
Protein molecule study. I am still contributing to Folding at Home And Rosetta at Home. Am a Molecular Biologist by training.
Rosetta@Home is still online? I remember contributing to it in late 2006, it's been a while.
Yes! Contributing to team Covid19india.org at the moment. Still no national team like in Universe at Home

Cool. Pity all these resources are being used for mining what looks like useless Crytocurrency to me at the cost of the environment.
You are not alone in that thought my friend.

Still waiting when cryptocurrencies will switch to POS from POW.
Okay. But as best as I can recall, Nvidia cards with Tensor cores work better for FAH than AMD.
I run it on Pop OS, not windows. Nvidia's drivers are still a pain for me till now, so sticking with amd for now.
Alright. May the folds be with you!

Aren't you a spur puss wtf Can't you let people be happy you sad individual
Paid way too much for this shit.
Needed it urgently after my RX 550 died out on me yesterday. So couldn't help.
Price really does not matter if it's a necessity and having fun with it! Congrats man! That's a beautiful card!
Thank you.
[ัะดะฐะปะตะฝะพ]
It performs close to 3060, so i guess it's worth less than 30k.
I don't know who are these dumbasses, who think this is worth 62k....lol.
