Now that's a real kick in the teeth for people who have only just managed to get a 6000 series card.

oh nice another GPU that nobody can buy.


btw:



the RTX 2060 12GB is speculated to be only sold to miners.
it seems no reviewer has a card, nvidia does not promote them.
they are not listed.

Wait until the end of next year it'll be a kick in the teeth to everyone cause them cards are going to be really powerful, saying that this isn't a bad thing it's just them getting more production on a newer node so it'll be more cards not that they can meet demand from either amd or nvidia.

But the problem of supply and prices will likely still be there. My older brother, who's a much bigger gamer than I am, has been waiting for an RTX 3060 or equivalent for over a year now. He can't play a lot of the games he wants to play because he still has only a GTX 970. Waiting is great if you can, like myself, but some have already been waiting for a long time and cannot keep waiting. And while Lovelace and RDNA3 will be a huge leap forward, it's only the flagship products that will see the enormous leap. The rest of the product stack will likely be a similar jump that we saw from RDNA1 to RDNA2 or Turing to Ampere. So buying a refresh of Ampere or RDNA2 makes sense in my opinion. I can't see Lovelace and RDNA3 coming out properly until Q1 2023.

Yea the situation with raw materials is unchanged, i guess it depends on when people get lucky as to what card they will get but next gen is a huge upgrade but i expect some rebrands on the mid tier and below leaving the top 3 cards being new.

That's it as well, I agree. I think the biggest leap forward will be the top end and that's what we'll see first. We won't see affordable cards from RDNA3 or Lovelace until well into 2023. That's my guess. In which case, buy now whenever you can or wait for the refresh in a few months time.
