Nvidia thinks gamers are stupid.  We allow them to spit in our face and when cards become available we act like sheep and rush and buy.  They are selling bulk cards to miners and want us to purchase a 3050 and a 2060 rebirth and have us "kiss their ring" and thank them for giving us something.  I bought parts to build a Ryzen 9 5950 system and  I haven't opened any of it.  My return policy gives me until Jan 15 so, if I don't have the card I want I will return it all and stick with my XBOX. One x for the next two years and boycott team green and team red. All I can say to my fellow gaming brothers is have some restraint and don't buy the 6600 gpu, 2060 gpu, or the 3050 gpu.  When we settle for something rather than getting what we want, we always regret it.

Open the gates! Free poor GPUs!
They made for enjoy games with their gamers friends!  :D

Dude a wafer factory literally burnt down. This is nothing to do with it. Do better research spud

Idk why this keeps getting posted. They've been selling cards directly to mining farms, firms and wholesale since practically day 1. They even sell just the die's if that's what the customer wants. Samsung's 8nm node can supply enough cards to meet much more "Gaming Consumer" demand than they let on. And the substrate and gddr6 shortages were getting better a pretty long while ago. At least AMD sells cards from their site at msrp to get them into gamers hands, and they are battling with tons of other TSMC customers for supply. My 1080 ti is the last card I'm owning from Nvidia until they stop being anti consumer. Hell, they got stock-blocked from buying arm for being anti trust. What does that tell you.

f*** them all!!!! f*** Your gfx cards up your arses .....f*** you big time.....You didn't and you don't care about gamers anymore you are just here to supply the mafia ....put them all up and  have one up your arse !big time !

Fuckers

It's funny to me people say crypto currency is safe and unable to be jacked with.....no ,yeah, you're right it isn't corruptible or anything like that or able to be controlled mostly by the people who mine it and manipulate the market around it. You're right crypto itself isn't susceptible to corruption but its a form of money so what have people been starting wars over and destroying lives over for all these years in America? Money. Gosh you're right we do need to create a 2nd form of money and one that puts extreme usage on our natural resources. Awesome. So they have paper money which has destroyed our material lives and now they are wanting to destroy any other joy we could get from life out of our natural earth's rewards also.
Exit soap box. 😬

I'm definitely selling NFTs! If a miner can say, "fuch you," with a straight face and burn his house down with hundreds of GPUs, then I can sell minted ranks of NFTs and laugh it up in their faces as a skilled artist!

Eases the process of earning crypto without a dedicated mining GPU, and costs extremely less!

Wasn't LHR supposed take care of this issue though 🤔

I don't understand people, in this case gamers. They want a free market but when the market is finally free, they complain.

Nvidia is just doing what any Corp will do. Sell as much as they can to whoever benefits them the most. In this case it was a very easy choice, even if it is at a discount, while selling whatever is left, at an increased price.

You boys didn't learn how the "free market" works at school?

Great way to try to divert attention from the fact it's morally a p.o.s move to squeeze out the customer base that made you to offer more to the customers who are just helping you along (miners) gamers will be here well after this crypto craze dies down...we've been here way longer may I add. way to downplay a gamers frustration.

What a p.o.s


                           Sincerely, all gamers.

I won't be giving a penny to Nvidia until card go back to MSRP but they obviously don't care if they're prepared to shave directly off their bottom line while they spit in the face of retail consumers... I bet their shareholders are enjoying some expensive champagne as we speak... Scummy company with no morals... I look forward to the next market competitor joining the race from India/China which will force prices to recover and then maybe the shareholders at Nvidia won't be so smug!

I think the statement that Nvidia is only doing what any company would do is absolutely ridiculous and even from the perspective of profit making stupid.
Why would they discount a product they don't need to discount? Millions of people line up to purchase cards like this at full retail and possibly more than full retail and they are missing out on an opportunity on purpose? What kind of stupid company does that? No I think there is something else going on basically pushing Nvidia to inequitably support virtual currency. It is now been years. For years Nvidia has been wholesaling to bitcoin and other virtual currency farms. A special market has been generated where people are selling their cards at an inflated rate to the end user. The enduser user gets no benefit unless they are willing to pay four times the face value of the card. Yet Nvidia doesn't see that money. This is about nothing other than greed and exploitation. If Nvidia really wanted to support their customer base they would find ways of getting the top cards into their hands in a reasonable manner. It's a huge market they're not taking advantage of. But it appears they are more interested in developing the Bitcoin market then the video game market.

We don't want free market, we just want a proper GPU with fair price, is that too much to ask?

I think it's time to abandone pc gaming and so therefore not anymore buying fu@kin videocards from Sh#tvidia or AMD and to turn to mobile gaming.
I hope soon new flagship smartphones will be capable of running today AAA-projects.

who said we want a free market? All a free market does is allow the rich 5% to take everything away from the rest of us by buying in mass bulk and scr**ing over the average person..

Rich person uses lots of money to buy in bulk then over charge to the rest of us at inflated price.. rich get richer poor get poorer.. and you think people want this? What people exactly? Corporations.. the rich.. they want that.. the average person does not as it's causing serious issues for the majority. This one person is literally taking away thousands of gfx cards.. it's like if you do your weekly shopping and fill up your cart then when you get to the checkout some other guy who has been sat at the checkout grabbing your cart and then just buying it all for himself.. he has the money to do it but he snatched it from you (aka purchase bots) and that's "free market"? You know what you can do with your free market.. shove it somewhere the sun dont shine
