Yeah, the miners were snatching up cards and basically fully populating boxes with them to grind transaction chains. The market is going to be flooded with them, but they're going to be questionable to use as video cards because they've been used so hard 24/7. The video card makers have tried making their card BIOS resistant to the calculations used by miners, but the miners have some extremely good codes on their side who basically wrote patches to the BIOS to get around them or rewrote the BIOS entirely.
