I'm buying the GPU for gaming only, dont mind them gimping it for mining. but let's be real, that still not gonna deter scalpers and miner to get the whole stock. The only real thing that would reduce the demand from miners are when the crypto currency crashes.
there's the pandemic going this time around which makes it worse. there's always issue of gpu shortage during launch day, but always able to be normalized within a few months.
That's the main reason why Hardware Unboxed didnt give much effort to NVIDIA RTX. The hardware is not yet there to make it a viable option to be turned on as default. To get a decent FPS with RTX on, you would at least get 3080. It is not as important as how NVIDIA is portraying. It will be...
