oh geez, a new mining raze, and at the turn of a new set of good GPU's as well, hmm, I wonder why this is happening...

Could it be yet another, well timed occurrence for Nvidia to possibly once again claim scarcity and at the same time, greatly inflating prices, as well as 3rd party vendors/creators doing the same?.

I mean, come on, it's going to happen. I hate bitcoin mining with a passion and I'd love to see it dead as the dodo, but I can't help but think at this point, that it's a bit fishy how it's only just ramping up again, just now, when we're at the very cusp of a new set of cards. Why wasn't there a ramp up with the 1st gen RTX cards, why when we're getting to the good cards?.

Yea I am gonna pick those cards up essentially as soon as they get announced. With a 30 day return policy that is just in case Nvidia actually does goof up... The last mining craze completely destroyed reasonable GPU pricing and those that were able to pick the GPUs up before it began essentially won the generation. Hell it gave Nvidia the will to raise their prices to this degree with the 2000 series.
