Scalpers, crypto, Covid, component shortages; there are many reasons behind the fact that graphics cards have become a hard-to-get product. Add to that demand, as GPU sales have gone up almost 40% in 2020.

And yeah, the GPU market will continue to grow in 2021. Compared to the first quarter of 2020, sales increased by 35 percent in the first quarter of this year. Year-over-year sales increased by no less than 39 percent. According to analysts at Jon Peddie Research, the GPU market, which includes chips from AMD, Intel, and Nvidia, reached 119 million units sold in the first quarter of 2021.

A notable forecast is that the share of discrete GPUs is expected to grow between 2020 and 2025. The CPU market also appears to be growing with a 39 percent year-over-year increase in unit sales. Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, and other board partners saw a seven percent increase between Q4 2020 and Q1 2021.

No question that china screwed everyone over - im 100% certain that covid was intentional biological warfare on the west from china. And it has certainly been working.

I tend to agree it was collected (probably from a mine outbreak from 2012-2015) and brought to the lab in Wuhan, it is possible they tweaked it as the lab is capable of doing that. However I am betting on incompetence not deliberate action as the reason it got out.

Realism is brain massage. Truth is raw knowledge. More than 39% percent of Americans are about to get 3rd dose.

Dear gamer, we are sorry to inform you that the 3070 Ti wont be available in 2021 due to the chip shortage. We assure you though that you will be able to buy one for slightly over msrp on eBay somewhere in the 2nd half of 2022.

Love, Nvidia.
