Sadly I think you may be disappointed. The GPUs used for AI are not typical graphics GPUs, they aren't on PCIe cards with video ports. They are set up in configurations designed to cram as many chips as possible into as small a space as possible while still providing power and cooling for 100% output on all of them.

There still are a high amount of 4090s, modified 4080s, and 5090s in AI deployment (especially for their cost compared to the specialized stuff). It probably won't be the vast majority of cards, but it'll be nice to see in the used market.

I live in silicon valley, once that bubble bursts I'm going straight to craigslist and ebay lol

I am with you man... going to the fire sales, second hand all the way. Even now... all my holiday purchases are secondhand, ebay, thrift, flea market purchases. Fuck the corporations.

I'm kinda in the same boat. My main box was used, only a couple hundred bucks and it's served me pretty well. Same thing with all my other personal PCs for the last 5-7 years.
If you're not gaming, the benefit of going new is pretty limited. The hardware outpaced the software.

they can be adapted, and will be in order to sell them.

Perhaps, but if that involves desoldering BGA chips and remounting them on new cards, do you really think someone's gonna bother to do that?
Especially if the chips are optimized for AI and don't perform well for games?
