alt Hacker Newsit's last call to get a GPU while there is stock left, no hopes those will become any more affordable in future considering the ongoing DRAM crisis. I am going to get 5070 Ti to replace my 1080 Ti which did a great service over all these years, paid it's worth back two times over during monero mining days and still can play a lot of games on high settings - recently finished RDR2. I sometimes wonder if Nvidia will be still making GPUs useful for gamers in a year or two or just completely shift it's focus to AI accelerators regular people will have no use for. RIP affordable computing at home.
I feel like the whole memory situation might also utterly screw up the pricing and value proposition of the upcoming Intel Arc B770.
I got a B580 cause everything else was out of my price range at the time (9060 XT 16 GB only seems to have 3 video outputs and I have no experience with daisy chaining to drive my 4 monitors and the 5060 Ti 16 GB pricing here is just sad).
I fear that companies will rise the prices during this shortage… and just never properly lower them again.
