But what's the manufacturer's incentive (AMD / NVIDIA) to produce up for the demand? Aren't they in a perfect position atm.? They sell more than they have any other yeah (ANYTHING they produce gets taken like hotcakes at FAR higher prices). Basically like monopoly. So what's to press them to increase supply even more, other than their own greed? Competition between the two?

So they bought Graphics cards at MSRP or around there. They've been selling it at really high price, with the only risk of having to lose money, if stock became available and prices fell, so nobody would buy from them anymore, while they have a huge stockpile. Now, since the new tarifs increasing GPU prices and covid still going on, their prices (or at least higher than MSRP prices) will become the new normal? - So they have a win-win situation?

Did you actually get the card running on 430 drivers playing games?? How?

Hi all, Did anyone ever figure a way to use newer Nvidia drivers than 417.22? I'd really help out on newer games.

Netflix etc. How do they make sure you NEVER lag during streaming, even though they can't predict like 40m people suddently watch the same series?

My motherboard only supports crossfire. Would the SLI on the GPU work on this since it's a single-PCI slot card?

Did you get more frames by disabling nvlink/ sli? Sometimes bad sli can reduce fps. Your cpu is definitely bottlenecking for games like csgo, however 120 is very low. You should be able to get more.

How do programs actually measure/calucate this? you know 0-100% usage. How does it know? like number of active transistors?

Guess nobody can tell the future buddy.

So there isn't a specific date, like 2 weeks after official announcement or on the release date where items hit the shelves ? Like some standard

All in the title. Just wondering.

You should be fine with 480 and 6pin to 8 pin adapter.

Tried reseating? Could be a bad interface between gpu and pci on mobo ?

When you run a benchmark and monitor cpu/gpu usage and frequencies, are they asthey should be ? Is the gpuat 100%load under game? At what fps?

Nice you got it working OP. ! Case closed.
