It's incredible how the news continues to get worse every single day about Arc

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.

Em... not to be *that* guy but Nvidia actually trried to do something about it. They're the ones that developed LHR to try to push miners away from their cards, and brought to the market Turing based cards just for miners, all while AMD did nothing at all.

I say this because it's not Nvidia's fault you're talking about but the greed of most, if not all (I really should have made a list of all the ones that got caught doing it), the AIB partners that were the ones that went for miners of internet cafes and sold them directly the cards instead than to us, gamers. They are the ones that brought us here, not Nvidia.

With that said, what Nvidia, and also AMD, should do now is to cut the MSRP, because it's been two years and the remaining cards wont sell unless they drop in price, and a lot.
