No, they didn’t send me amy transcripts. Plenty of quotes though one of which points to industry wide supply constraints. We seem to both be saying the same thing only different. I think the supply issue is a bigger factor than the pent up demand and you seem to think the opposite. we can both...

I feel like we are talking in circles. Nvidia themselves have acknowledged supply constraints. Industry wide supply constraints. I don’t doubt that demand is also high, and for highly anticipated products, even a “normal” supply chain runs dry initially. This is different, this is high demand...

I may give that a shot

What I mean by tighter is pretty much explained in my post. AIBs are receiving a fraction of what they or ordering from nvidia and retails are receiving a fraction of what they are ordering from AIBs. There’s a supply issue isn’t limited to GPUs, it’s also affecting CPUs, motherboards and even...

We have heard from AIBs and retailers on how many orders they’ve placed vs received. Demand is higher but supply is a LOT tighter.

no, unless you’re foolish enough to believe random you tubers claiming an influx of supply coming in November, December, and January.

Latest nvidia driver is causing issues with my 1080Ti so I’ve had to refrain from purchasing this game until that gets sorted.

Except with Apple devices, at least a few years back, the shortages where due to overwhelming demand instead of an overwhelming supply shortage.

Was anyone NOT expecting Ti cards? I don't even remember the last family of GPUs that didn't have one.

As well, you shouldn't be fooled either. If they drop that market they lose most of the mining market too. I'd recon most miners aren't too keen on paying for a full blown workstation card for mining.

You shouldn’t need to reinstall with just a CPU upgrade. Sometimes, at least back in the day, if the upgraded CPU had a new instruction set, a reinstall would be required to take advantage of that new instruction set. Everything else would still work just fine though. I do not know if Win 10...

is the screen black or asleep? if it’s black it’s using just as much power as a completely white background. Slightly more actually because it takes a higher voltage to rotate the pixels so they are blocking the backlight. Note that this does not apply to OLED

seems every month some outfit makes this claim. They’re bound to be right at some point. Think I’ll pickup the February slot on my channel if this doesn’t happen.

From my experience, they're pretty shitty at starting fires. Much more reliable ways to do that. Probably shouldn't do it either way though.

To many people the time and/or money they invest in something like waiting in line for the video card is worth it for the fun factor they'll extract from it when they install the GPU in their PC

As they should be for a high demand low supply item.

Depends how the card compares to an FE card. I’ll pay more for a better card as I’ve always done But won’t pay more for the same or inferior card.

It’ll be interesting if scalpers is what ultimately saves B&M retail shops from being Amazoned out of business.

I anxiously await the anouncment/release of the 3080Ti that I won't be able to find anywhere.

I have extra “junk” but the are perfectly serviceable for 1080p and with inventory being what it is, they are sticking around as “emergency” spares

This is the card I want but probably won’t be able to get thanks to lack of availability

That’s the long answer since there arent any caveats to the question. Short answer is merely, yes

Do you normally answer something that was never asked? I think you should reread what I said MLIDs prediction That the market will be flooded with cards this month is flat out wrong (so far)

The all seem difficult to find from here. Just because one model might be marginally easier than another does make his claims accurate. He got the inventory part of his conspiracy theory wrong. Whether it’s because Samsung shortages or just outright wrong, I can’t say but wrong nonetheless

how exactly do you define much easier? I’ve been looking an all seem equally difficult.

Except it’s not just the cheap cards suffering from unobtanium. So that part of his claim is fud

There are those of us who have their priorities in line, have led and continue to lead successful and fulfilling lives, that enjoy winding down with games for a handful of hours a week. While I agree that it’s not *that* big of a deal, this post came off as overly judgmental.

You said he’ll run games “great” he won’t. Many will run like absolute crap.

No he won’t.

No sir, just the notion that the day 1 reviews would be all anyone would care about or remember. Looking around the forums, FB groups, you tube reviewers, no one is discussing the glowing performance. It's almost all entirely negative right now. Could get even worse for nVidia depending on how...

I didn't say I'm finding them, I clearly said "non-existant FE cards"

MLID's reporting on the rumors appears to be reasonably accurate, but his analysis on what that means appears to be way off as far as I can see. Ampere does indeed appear to be in short supply, and prices are above MSRP. Not drastically higher, but higher is higher. That said, the analysis that...

PS4/XB1 are using an AMD APU and amd has not gained any advantage over nvidia due to it. DX12/Vulcan closed the gap some because AMD can’t manage to write an efficient driver. Windows 8 didn’t save bulldozerm PS4 didn’t magically catapult AMD GPUs and neither will PS5. If AMD wants to beat...

I play COD and don’t have any issues getting into MP matches where people are playing the objective. Sure, every so often I’ll run into a match where people are just trying to get kills or level up but you make it sound like that’s all anyone does. Sounds like you’re living in a bubble and...

Thats a whole lotta “mores”

FWIW, I have a 3900x using an H110i (280mm) and have no problems keeping the temperature in check even when editing/encoding 4k, H265 content pegging all 12 cores/24 threads for several hours. I also have one of the very first batch of 3900x that tends to request unusually high voltage from the...

Not seeing any 3080's or 3090's come up on Dell's site. If someone has a direct link to one, would love to see it.

If I was on 4K, I probably would not have erected this thread as I'm sure my 1080Ti would be hurting. At 1440p though, this low/no stock situation is just an annoying inconvenience... 1st world problems I know... I know everyone's waiting for Cyberpunk right now. I don't know anything about...

How many of you 1080Ti/Titan owners who planned on snagging a 3080 are considering sticking it out with your current card for the foreseeable future due to not being able to get a 3080/3090? My excitement is waning. I went from “I need this card!” to “Do I need this card?” Is it just me?

XBox has always had a simpler design philosophy than PlayStation consoles. Sometimes simpler is better, sometimes it isn’t. Back when xbox’s were overheating with RRODs, simpler wasn’t better. Time will tell who truly has a better design this time around. That said, Sony is notorious for over...
