Videocards will continue to rise in price almost all year 2018

Representatives of Nvidia grieved all gamers and   miners   - last year's deficit for   video card is delayed by at least   year. A   this means that lower prices for   New cards do not wait   worth it.

About all this told one of the   organizers of Massdrop crowdfunding site Brian Hutchins, who managed to communicate with   representatives of Nvidia in   their time   visit to   Massdrop. By   Brian wrote a detailed post, the whole essence of which is reduced to   several lines: " Most likely, prices for   video cards will continue to grow to   the third quarter of this year. AND   Only then you can breathe   relief. "

Why do not the cards   become cheaper

First , the miners and the   gray buyers. The first need a lot of cards, the latter provide demand, buying cards directly from   plants, because of what up to   retail reaches only a portion of the cards. Secondly , the producers of smartphones are to blame. Manufacturers of RAM in   first of all try to fulfill orders of Apple, Samsung and   others, so do not   pay attention to   a deficit of RAM and   VRAM, necessary for the manufacture of video cards.

Therefore, the fast release of new GeForce GTX 2000   can become in its own epochal   - for the first time in   history of the video card will be impossible to buy on   normal price, and   extremely difficult to   overestimated. After all, until   many markets, a new card will come with   great delay.
