Anyone have any exp with them? I'm looking at grabbing some GPUs from them the prices don't feel too good to be true...just the fact that they have them. But only taking payment in crypto and being based in china has be a little weary. Heard mixed things. Wondering if anyone here has used them.

I can't answer if they are or not, but I am also new to this space and in my experience what I've seen so far is the "if it's too good to be true" then it is. 

If they are only accepting untraceable funds, don't do it. 

I would only pay for goods with something that provided me buyer protection, especially when we're talking about the hottest, most difficult to obtain commodity since April 2020 Toilet Paper. 

I would paste "buyer beware" all over anything in this industry right now.  I've seen so many scam sites in the few months I've been looking into this.  When something is as hot as this is, the scammers double their efforts to rip us off.

And the p104 cards are quite old.  This is between 1070 / 1080 cards.   So not a great thing considering what a 3060ti or 570xt cost about the same and deliver more hash as lower power.

Brilliant of you to come on here to ask this question, most newbies will just go ahead and order the cards and get scammed in return, the truth is this, I've never heard about this website called BITNAND before, it's possible to be a scam platform, buy your gpu from Amazon, Newegg, Ebay and aliexpress

Where did you heard about the store anyway? Have you seen any good reviews about the platform before? What kind of research have you done about the store? I can't find a user that have any past experience with this BITNAND before, I suggest you find trusted source to buy gpu from, everyone knows Amazon, everyone use Newegg or ebay, why BITNAND? Every gpu you plan to buy is available on Amazon

You are wrong, that Nvidia RTX3060Ti has higher hashrate than a AMD 5700XT, on Minerstat calculator a RTX3060ti can output 60MH per second with power draw of 120watt and a RX5700XT only output 54MH per second with power draw of 91 to 100 watt, the only difference here is the RTX3060Ti is more costly

I was suggesting either of those cards are better than buying two generations  older p104 cards at $399....when you can get current gen cards at about the same price.

3060ti cost me $459
5700xt cost me $399
Price difference is $60

3060ti gives 61mhs / 5700xt give 54 mhs / difference 7mhs in 3060 favor

Power usage at the wall for 5700xt is about 120w....the driver reports only wattage to gpu asic but actuall total wattage is higher for AMD which is around 90-100watts.   3060 uses around 125w as Nvidia driver reports wattage for enitre card.  

Get a killawatt and read rig empty watts, rig +5700 watts, and rig + 3060 watts....then subtract empty rig wattage from both.  This shows clearly that AMD is only reporting watts to GPU asic...and not whole card.  Minerstat shows it that way becuase that is what the average user will see...and most wont actually bother to go and measure.  I run both and actually did the tests prior to buying more.

I still dont see how one can argue for the p104 cards....they are clearly older and slower per hash/watt and at $399 + shipping + tariffs are not going to be cheaper than the two newer gpus.
