Retailers have begun selling GeForce GTX graphics cards in limited quantities per order. Nvidia confirmed this due to an initiative of the GPU manufacturer in an attempt to limit sales to miners. What effect this has on for prices and availability, remains to be seen.



The new restriction will be a maximum of two graphics cards (of the same model) per order. Whether or not this will have an effect will remain to be seen. As you could place multiple orders, or buy elsewhere.

Nvidia: " For NVIDIA, gamers come first. All activities related to our GeForce product line are targeted at our main audience. To ensure that GeForce gamers continue to have good GeForce graphics card availability in the current situation, we recommend that our trading partners make the appropriate arrangements to meet gamers' needs as usual."

Nvidia emphasizes that retailers can, but do not have to, follow this " recommendation ", reports computerbase. The manufacturer would never intervene in the freedom and independence of trade. (which is a legal thing). Some stores have now limited the number of video cards per customer. Caseking, Alternate, MIX, and Mindfactory only provide two video cards of the same type per customer. Incidentally, the stores have the same policy regarding AMD Radeon cards.
