Very funny Bill but it doesn't change the narrative does it

They are starting to stock up, but with a bit of premium

Riptide · Jan 17, 2021, 09:36 AM

The Dallas micro center was cleaned out yesterday afternoon when I went over there to nose around. Hardly any graphics cards left and no 3000 or 6000 series of course.

Never been to a micro center before. Those of you who have one near you are lucky to have it. What a great store for nerds.

Yep. It sucks that mine is located where it's a minimum 40 minute drive no matter which way I go, despite being 12 miles away (need to go north and all main thoroughfares between are east/west) but it's worth it every time, even if I don't buy anything.

I'll see so many things on shelves that I didn't know existed. Got my daughter a bluetooth fidget spinner.

Need a card reader? Pick from one of these 40 different brands!

Leprechaun · Jan 19, 2021, 02:11 PM

Haven't looked at any amd gfx since the high Frank Azor availability day. Just been scoping rtx 3000s daily. Just checked now and there's 20+ cards just sitting locally. Too expensive for what they are and worse at mining. Not sure how much the latter is affecting sales.

Also, to date nobody has explained the point of the 6800 vs 6800 xt. The price difference is negligible, yet performance has a decent difference

Negligible price difference?

Kind of a joke, but I literally just went to the AMD store to see if they had any stock and saw this. Thought it an appropriate response.

https://www.amd.com/en/shop/us/Graphics%20Cards

EDIT: I clicked the "Check Retail Availability" link and saw this. Got very excited.

The AMD one leads to a 404 not found, but Insight will be happy to ship you a $650 card for $1217.

Leprechaun · Jan 19, 2021, 03:05 PM

^

I meant here in Canada. $1000 for 6800. $1200 6800 xt.
MSRP is the biggest lawlz of 2020/2021

Whoa. Just went to the AMD UK store and they had the 6900XT listed at £1,397.99 again available from Insight. Jeepers. What's going on? That's about $1,500 USD give or take (removing UK VAT). They haven't got them in stock of course.

LordHawkwind · Jan 19, 2021, 04:17 PM

FFS a guy just posted on the AMD Radeon Graphics facebook page asking for advice on settings for his 6900XT. Says it's his first gaming PC and doesn't understand what settings are best for the card. Claims he's only getting 70fps at Far Cry 5 on an Asus 1440p 165hz monitor. Absolute ****head and this is why real enthusiasts can't buy cards ATM because of morons like him who probably paid a scalper.

CyanBlues · Jan 20, 2021, 01:20 AM

yah who are close to a microcenter and still in need of a card/processor really needs to join the unofficial microcenter discord, people usually wait in the morning and they usually give updates on stock once the store opens, will save you a drive. https://discord.gg/W438Vz2

yep and the 3080 strix is 959 30 bucks over the new jacked up MSRP

Riptide · Jan 25, 2021, 08:32 AM

The asrock phantom 6900 card seems to be a better undervolter than the sapphire nitro +. I am able to hold 1080-1090mv and without any memory overclocking timespy scores are over 19800. With some memory overclocking, 20000+ is possible.

I suspect also that this setting in the driver here is causing timespy scores to be lower:
Settings->Graphics->Advanced->10-bit pixel format

Is someone able to please check if that is enabled, assuming they have a 10-bit display and it is allowed in the driver, does their timespy graphics score feel an impact?

LordHawkwind · Jan 25, 2021, 04:56 PM

Yeah for the first time since launch I've seen for sale a Made by AMD (MBA) 6800 for £700 and a MBA 6900XT for £1,199. AIB Powecolor Red Devil is £1,399.

The 6800's and 6900XT's are still available if anyone in the UK is interested but you need to look in the 3D Printers section of the site which they used to stop bots and scalpers so why they're still available. There's even a 3070 for £720. Apparently all the 6800XT have gone so don't know how much they cost.

If you want one grab one quick.

Wow still in stock for 6800 & 6900XT. Obviously not popular at those prices as it's the longest I've seen any cards be available to buy.

At launch date I'd have bitten their hand off for a 6900XT. Unfortunately the boat has sailed as the saying goes.

Amazingly even today you can still buy a 6800, 6900XT and 3070 and some models have 10+ stock. The MBA 6900XT's range from £1,199 to £1,289. The AIB Sapphire Nitro+ OC 6900XT is £1,399 as is the Powercolor 6900XT Red Devil.

The Sapphire Pulse 6800 is £719.99 and the Nitro+ OC £749.99. There's an MSI 3070 Suprim for £719.99. As Gibbo put these in the 3D printer section the bots and scalpers probably got confused and can't hoover them up.

Maybe what it does show is gamers just aren't interested in these cards at those prices so aren't buying them. Who knows but with all the lack of availability it does seem strange TBH.

that's all kinds of major BS
auto makers are not essential right now

there is no shortage of new cars at any lot i have drove buy lately all over town

more likely of a shortage of new car buyers with most people locked in working form home or not working at all
most people are not buying big things like new cars right now

pax · Jan 28, 2021, 11:31 AM

Well theres a pretty massive shortage of hybrid cars that have more tech in them...

Its an 18+ month wait list for the Rav4 Prime.
