They aren't as big as nvidia. They don't have the money for such a big production line
>>
>The only people this hurts are gaymers
kek

Seriously though. AMD and it's partners should allow buying directly and only allow 2 GPU's per customer.
>>
>>60754434
>fucking miners
Still? I thought that stopped being profitable ages ago.
>>
>>60754513
It takes a while to ramp up production at GloFo and by then the demand might have decreased. But to be honest I don't even know if they have more capacity for 14nm at GloFo.
>>60754569
Ethereum spiked in value so everyone's mining that and some other coins.

QUICK! RX 480 for £20!

I have 1 RX 480. Should I start mining memecoins with it?

No, you should resell it for shekels.

Sell it. You'll be able to buy a 1070
>>

>>60754829
Jokes aside, I need to make sure my shit works properly on amd cards, so can't do that.
>>
why do minefags only buy up all the polaris cards?
ist hawaii/fiji much better for cumpute? a dual furyX is like 650 eurobucks nowerdays
>>
>>60754879
> why do minefags only buy up all the polaris cards?
perf/watt mostly. It's more efficient at those task than hawaii/tahiti.
>>
>>60754879

>>60754497
Being illiterate is not knowing that AMD still sells these to retailers at the same price as ever.
>>
>>60754434
This is awesome for them. Fuck loads of sales.
>>
>>60754879
Because jewvidia used asics on their cards to cheat, now they're paying the price.
>>
>>60754990
Yep, lots of sales, but everyone on steam will be using nvidia cards.
Guess what technology the game manufacturers will make games for.

And after the crypto bubble pops for the 5th time in ten years, there will be no demand for mining cards (least until the next bubble)

But there will be dime-a-dozen Radeon cards on the used market for all the poorfags.
>>
>>60754990
awesome at first.
when couldn't find and amd card, people who play games will buy nvidia, then g sync monitors which make them stuck with nvidia for a long time.
then eth bubble will burst, there will be tonnes of second hand rx cards in market so much that amd couldn't push its newly products, thus losing market share and mind share.
>>
>>60755090
Second one, first one was on h81, and still probably, better bet for such task, because why the fuck would you need skylake/kabylake for that?

>>60754944
>AMD still sells
Shipping more product is good for them either way, looks good to their investors.

crypto was a mistake

>>60754568
I was thinking literally the exact same thing yesterday
>>
>>60754434
1.7 strikes again.
>>
>>60754879
Perf/watt. Undervolted Polaris is godlike at that.
>>
>>60754944
So? A sale is a sale. It doesn't matter if it goes to an autistic crypto miner or an autistic gamer. Autism bux is autism bux.
>>
>>60754434
people buys all of amd cards
amd gets profit
amd gets insane share
AMD IS FINISHED
>>
>>60755000
tell me more
>>
>>60754513
No one thought the 2017 crypto rally would be this fucking aggressive, specially after PBoCs sheanigans
Anyways this was pretty shortsighted from AMD since the same thing happened with the RX480 and the R9 290
Though yields on Polaris should be really good so this shortage kind of doesn't add up
>>60754879
per/watt and ROI, Polaris it's king on the later and almost beats Nvidia on the first
>>60755112
>But there will be dime-a-dozen Radeon cards on the used market for all the poorfags.
tbqh I never saw cheap 6990's, 290's or 480's after mining returned to normal profit levels
>>
>>60754434
i guess i'll get a 560.
>>
>>60755951
there where a shit tonne of cheap used 290's
