I dont, I sold my entire PC just before the 3080 launch cause I thought it would massively drop in value once 30 series were released....lol I haven't gamed in 2months XD (Edit: had 1070 & i5 6500 - getting 5800x & 3080)
It is exactly my situation and it made me laugh so hard 🤣 though in my case I had a EVGA 2080 XC Ultra and manage to sell it for the exact same amount I originally paid for Edit : I am now the proud owner of a msi ventus 3x 3070
Well its getting better now. I just recently snagged 3070Ti slightly below MSRP. There was only 1 left, and that was the fastest purchase I ever made in my life.
You're actually a dumbarse if you think that something like this wouldn't have happened, whether it be an AMD or NVIDIA GPU. Sure, if you prepare more it might take a bit longer for cards to go out of stock. But they will still go out of stock on launch day. It's inevitable. The only way you can really try and fight stock issues is to put out a majority of your product in stock, keep a good amount in reserve and try and produce more products to put them in the reserve. But no human or even factory will be able to produce graphics cards that fast, especially not when they need to be tested for quality control.
profit ... they dont care if its a guy behidn a screen gaming or a guy behidn his phone making shitload of money aslong as they have their piece of the cake
That was just perfect. I like the little attention to detail to make the subtitles look old and how you choose every word carefully so it feels like they are actually talking about that. 10/10
For anyone wondering: the clip is about the man having his tonsils removed and it leaving him with a high voice which impacts his (sex) life. The audience member has the same problem. EDIT: Yes of course it is satire and staged.
@@madman9850 it was a talk show where they interviewed a guy that had a bad surgery on his vocal cords and was left with a really high pitched voice and the interviewer just couldnt hold it together and laughed straight in his face. To relief some of the awkwardness he asks someone in the audience to respond, and the guy that starts speaking has exactly the same condition as the other guy only with a really deel voice and the interviewer just loses it
@@GottHoldNicetomeet Why is it no one can read today or properly ascertain the issue? Scalpers can only acquire so many cards themselves and it ain't many. The problem is not the scalpers, the problem is Nvidia knowingly releasing a card that would obviously be in demand while being woefully in short supply. That's like a tease and quite annoying. You got people who have built their rigs weeks ago and all they are waiting for is a card from Nvida. They are stuck like that now. You got others who ordered a custom rig from places like CyberPower and Digital Storm and they are stuck too. This is just poor management no other way to describe it. Do you know how angry someone is having bought and paid for a rig from say Digital Storm months ago and Digital Storm can't complete and ship because they are waiting on a card from Nvidia?? That is quite annoying. No matter what happens now Nvidia is dead to me forever if AMD has a better supply of their 6000 series cards. A lot of people are feeling that way now.
@@tbx12frnku22 it's the "Boemerang" sketch from this Flemish comedy show called In de Gloria. The original content was just as hilarious. God, I can't believe it's been more than 12 years since I first saw that, thinking it was a real interview.
@@tbx12frnku22 It's a comedy spoof of the old style talk shows. The former TV host (old) looks back on where his life went wrong (young him on this show that went off the rails and got him fired) The topic was medical blunders. Guy went in for a routine op and they screwed up his vocal cords. Hilarity ensues.
it becames even worst. RTX3070 price is 1500 USD 31.01.2021 Moscow RTX3070. My month salary is only 1100 USD. Fortunately i bought RX5700XT for 450 USD in June.
I find this to hilarious he keeps on laughing at him and is like sorry sorry but just keeps on laughing at him and people say I'm an asshole for doing this kind of shit to others lol
@@EverSnaxolotl oh common admit it that was you squeaking like a little girl about the 2080 ti you sold for half price and now have no gpu to game on cause you cannot get a 3080 hahaha
This has happened to me before. lol Uncontrollable laughter. It's not with intention, it just happens. The person I was laughing at had the same expression as Mr. Squeeky voice.
Happened to me in school once. They showed a disabled person with no legs and arms and someone from my table said they looked like a chicken wink. I laughed so fucking hard and the teacher kicked me out the class.
@@jayvee8502 I mean... people that have money set no budget, unless they're just a tight wad that likes to sit on ridiculous amounts of money, not understanding that they can blow money sometimes. The other end of the spectrum is the headasses making 200,000 a year, living paycheck to paycheck because they think they're rich. Ive literally seen it. Its garbage. Then there's people who make $$$ who are smart. And balance stuff. Willing to blow $$$ on things they love sometimes. If its a gamer? Yeah, you better believe they're gonna have a 5000$ rig. They're gonna get exactly what they want, and money is no object. Not being able to buy anything past a 500$ gpu, is literally a budget. That's why you tubers call things budget builds. Stuff that someone making 40,000$ a year, the average, can realistically afford without sacrificing.
I love this shit first he buys a 1200 dollar gpu then oh I am selling it for half price to buy another gpu that's the same price I love this shit he's sad cause he's an idiot I love that shit nvidia guy is fully in the right to just laugh his ass off
Bots are ruining a lot of online purchases for hobbies. You’d think site creators could deny and bog down inhumanly quick purchases. Of course the next option is don’t pay overly inflated prices and just wait for supply to catch up to demand.
You honestly think a multi billion dollar company that manages thousands of workers and operations would overlook this? Bro, this was planned so that NVIDIA could advertise it as a cheap GPU but only sellers would get it, then the sellers would resell it at high costs giving NVIDIA a cut for allowing them to do it. That way, NVIDIA makes money, and LOOKS like they were offering a badass GPU for cheap. But it back fired, we see the BS for what it is. They tried to fix their 2000 series mistake of being too expensive for no real performance gains, which lost them money, and now they are reaping that money back while pandering to us as if they were angels of light offering a cheap GPU.
The video acts like nvidia controls the retailers website "Youd think nvidia would have done something about the bots". Well given the retailers run their sites themselves, this is a stupid statement to make. IMO a rather simple solution is to have captcha at the checkout. Tho it slikely the people running the bots would just write a script up to that point and have a human finish it.
@@namihiko8678 Now that's some crazy delusional stuff. A multi-national billion dollar company using some neanderthal level street 'hustle' to make a few extra bucks? Sometimes the right answer is the most obvious one, and AMD's impending launch will either show hard truths about how this global pandemic has had devastating impacts on the global supply chain as people struggle to buy AMD's low supply GPU's, or that AMD is also in cahoots with Nvidia on this 'hustle' when scalpers scoop up most of the AMD cards and put them on eBay for twice the price - this would by your logic make AMD the same as Nvidia Not long to wait now.....
3 years later, still will be applicable. Thought paying 1200 for a 2080 ti was crazy. Wow dude just wow. 3 3090s later and a 3070. It's been a ride dude. Alot of work for those things but well well worth it.
Omg dude look up the actual clip it's a show called boomerang from the netherlands. I pissed myself after he goes "has anyone else here had this problem?"
Hilarious to watch, unfortunatly it DOES paint Nvidia in a way against their business practices......it almost makes them look like they care enough to actually bother listening to (would've been) customers :D
So many business fails. Who does business like this ? An entire generation forgot the basics of under promising and over delivering ? Worse yet, the other way around ?
Do you really think being able to say "My product is so good it sold out immediately, sorry guys, we weren't expecting that" is bad business? If anything, the free publicity helps nVidia long term. Sure early adopters with money to spend are disappointed and extremely vocal. They are loud, but there are very VERY few of them compared to the overall market. So talking about "business fails" is laughable and misleading as none of this hurts their bottom line in the long term. nVidia will make well over $10 billion this fiscal year, likely much more, and are looking to buy ARM for $40 billion. In short: from a business perspective, they're doing very well. Now AMD having a highly competitive product now THAT is a real and serious long term threat.
@Diamond Ryzen was exactly that. No big fuss, awesome tech, great price and it just exploded. GPU market is, for some reason, messed up for years. Whatever is on offer doesn't feel like a great deal and they are now "competing" in top, overpriced, over-hyped bracket while they both still sell 5 year old tech for ~$250 (as entry level). Its disappointing.
Nvidia isn't in the business of selling less graphics cards than there are people willing and able to buy them. I'm sure this has to do more with poor manufacturing yields from the difficulty of such a small node process leading to shortages. Keep in mind this is an 8nm node, and an atom of silicon, itself is 0.2 nanometers. We're talking billions of transistors that are each only a few atoms large.
@@Willyu You should verify your sources, cause that rig wasn't probably one person. I have never seen an rx 580 cost above 400$(except probably today). Also, miners do not resell brand new unpackaged gpus for twice or even trice the MSRP the moment these cards come out and go out of stock. And weird how ps5s and xboxes, which aren't used for mining, encounter the same problem as graphics cards at the same time.
@@cursedpvp6967 purchased gigabyte G5 laptop RTX3060 max-P - each 1k€ Now it is winter, gas prices rising, and I thought: how about heating your home with mining? Get ~4$ per day with 3kWh heat capacity.
Bought 3070 for something like 900 usd (60k roubles) in retail (Russian prices are crazy, and these are not considered "scalpers"). But now I see people selling 'em for 1100usd, used ! And I thought 900 was crazy. Lol.
What are they really talking about? EDIT: Okay, got it from another comment "For anyone wondering: the clip is about the man having his tonsils removed and it leaving him with a high voice which impacts his (sex) life. The audience member has the same problem."
I got very lucky getting a 3070 online when it launched. I think Best Buy did a better job of implementing ways on their website to minimize scalpers from buying everything all at once. Plus it helped that Nvidia delayed the launch to get more supplies in. I’m just glad I managed to get one
I’m Dutch and this translation is 100% accurate Btw it is really weird looking at a video understanding what they say and having to see the subtitles to understand the video
It is so well acted! No wonder i can't count how many times belgians have to explain that this is a flemish TV sketch comedy show called "In de Gloria" :D
The story behind this is actually hilarious. The dude really wanted to make a show to help people with difficult life situations to be able to tell their story. The guy with the high voice had a botched tonsil removal surgery that permanently damaged his voice, and now he sounds like this. He started talking about why it has affected his self esteem, particularly with women and dating. He continued on to talk about why his high voice makes dirty talk during love making difficult, and that's when the host really lost all of his composure. [As did I, because the thought of it is hilarous] The network cancelled the show and fired the host immediately after this. The host said in later interviews that he felt really bad about everything because he did not want to or mean to laugh at anyone's misfortunes during the show. He was not prepared for that interview since the show usually has a very dark tone.
This was my reaction with one of my teachers, he had that exact same voice. I literally couldn’t take it and stepped outside. It was the first day of class.
yeah it's hilarious and so true laughing at a customer crying because of their incompetence to get their product out on store shelves I just find it hilarious and then nvidia will be crying when AMD takes market share in a few months time because of this shit
The best part about this video is the knowing that the interview was a real interview....lol. Minus the Nvidia overlay stuff, which is also very accurate.
IMHO it isn't incompetence. they are selling their cards for more than they are woth = they just don't give a f.. who the customers are as long as they get their cards sold. "gamers are mad with us because they can't get a new GPU? Who cares as long as we've got the miners?"
