Hopefully not, least not at launch. When Ampere launch happened, Crypto wasn't initially booming either. It was after a couple months when people realized how good the mining capabilities are is when the boom happened. Before that though, we had all the scalper BS.

Can't help but feel some satisfaction that their GPUs aren't selling. For years they've gouged and played with consumers with shitty practices and selling directly to miners. Though it sucks that because of that they are reducing capacity because they have so much stock of video cards of unwanted 30 series cards.

Also kinda sucks because I badly need a GPU upgrade on my PC lol.
