Scalping only works when there's scarcity. Nvidia and AMD failed to plan for it. AMD will be the bigger loser here, as they are trying to gain market share.

Isn't that how it's always been done?

Jensen Huang "And even with our bullish demand expectation and all of the Amperes that we built, which is one of the fastest ramps ever, the demand is still overwhelming. And this I guess in a lot of ways is kind of expected, the circumstances are -- it’s been a decade since we’ve invented a...

" Given industry-wide capacity constraints " ??? It's not me, it is the industry capacity and long lead times problem. Yeah there are zillions of customers beating on Samsung's door for the same process... September, October, November + a few more months... How long are those lead times?

Good luck! When is the first GPU review coming?

Dan, I liked reading not only your reviews on hardocp but also your comments on hardforum. Great fan! +1 on the motherboard quality comments. I like to run things for long periods rotating them from main machine to some other use over time. 6 desktops at home right now with the oldest still...
