Almost all desks in ikea are sold out since corona began. Same with almost everything, muscle building related, one barbell went up from 20€ to almost 100€ - without the weights. Electronics in general are hard to buy this days without paying massive cash on top and i see this authist bitching about gpu/cpu related things everyday on this forum. Like it will get better all of the sudden..

Just think of it all like the virus. It may ease?, but it will never go away Wink These times are here to stay I'm afraid, and costs are only going in one direction, UP!, and the longer most remain in lock-down, the tougher it will be for all. So best get used to it.

One cant expect goods and prices to be normal, when the economy is all going to shit, no Sir! This, of course, encourages those who wish to cash in on your desperation, and will scalp until the cows come home.

You either pay the ludicrous costs, if you wish something that bad enough, or don't, and do without. It's all wrong, but we have created this mess we now live in, and you cant have it both ways I'm afraid Smile

I got laughed at three times during this generation switch.

Once, when I didn't sell my 2080 ti before 3080 release. I saw people selling theirs in a hurry, dirt cheap, because they thought it would be worth less after the 3080 release. Guess who's laughing now, bois? People who sold theirs once their 3080 arrived, for a lot more, that's who.

Then the second time they laughed, when I bought a 3080 right at launch from someone who got lucky at the very beginning. Well, they are not laughing now, when even after 3 months the street price of cards (only way to get them) is a fucking 400 euros more than what I bought it for - and even those are sold out.

Third time they laughed, when I preordered PS5 on hour 1 of preorders going up - I had mine shipped on the day of launch and could sell it used for double the price today.

I guess the actual issue is that you can't even order the out of stock items Sad And when did you order, which model and at which price?

ZOTAC Gaming GeForce RTX 3080 AMP Holo, 10GB

1155.05 (We always pay premium regardless of shortage as well)

Online seller in my region downunder. There was a thread in a forum about pre-orders being met and Zotac had shipped a lot more cards here than other brands, perhaps Zotac have a better supply chain on retail? The cheapest possible 3090 (Yes i did way it up) is $2150 USD and I promptly shot down that idea.

Whats worse, im not even playing Cyberpunk or anything that really needs it. In fact just Path Of Exile but ultra-wide 3840x1600 144hz, ultrawide is the shit > the productivity and POE's ultrawide support loving it Cool

Most likely to clear all notification stuff. A complete reset. But scalpers will likely scalp as fuck regardless what they do

In fact any even closely good gaming card is nowhere to be found for a solid price. Here even 1080 Ti's are sold for over 400€ within an hours or a few days.

I can't remeber such bad situation in terms of hardware availability.

Same could be said about CPUs apart from soon-to-bee old Intel's models very few are ready to buy anyway.

Apologies if links to Discord are not allowed but I managed to obtain a 3080 in the UK (the channel covers Europe too) from a Discord channel called PartsAlert.

May be useful to those in UK and Europe looking for stock.

Delete mods if not allowed. Thanks

You still have to be quick off the mark mind but worked for me anyway.

Who makes the most profit from it. It's a scam in the sense that it siphons money from one kind of people to another. It is nothing but a commodity at this point and barely, if at all, "money". People don't use it, they only trade it.

Wouldn't that make it no different to gold? or are you saying anything traded is a scam because people could lose money?

Sorry I only see scam thrown around when someone either a) doesn't understand it properly b) is sour grapes.

Truth of it is that mining has turned Nvidia into a goldmine and miners are their primary customer base, why wouldn't they be?

My point <————————————————>your comment.

By the way, nice touch making it personal with the backhanded insult.

But I guess only morons don't understand what money is and what a commodity is.



Anyway, crypto miners are just another cancer and so are people trading such commodities. Neither ads anything of value to society.

edit, 23h17: Why is it so difficult to discuss without having to resort to „morons“, just because you imagined an insult? geardown a bit.

Anyway, use this thread https://www.nfohump.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=73785&highlight= or create a new cryptocurrency thread if you wish to discuss this in more depth.

the reintroduced RTX 2060 and RTX 2060 SUPER will be priced at 300 EUR and 400 EUR respectively. The latter being well above the RTX 3060 which will retail at 339 EUR in France.
