That's not how it works. You won't make GPUs that suck up all the demand while you get good gaming GPUs. If it can process stuff fast - either in computation or in memory speeds - then cryptominers want it, and so do you. The card you wish to exist simply doesn't, and if the cards are good, then they are profitable, which means they buy more of everything.
Most intelligent GPU miners have a diversified farm of Nvidia and AMD cards in some proportion to cover the specific algos that are good on each platform.
Wouldn't hold your breath.
