The only alternative is cloud gaming because graphics cards are way harder to get than consoles
- mywittyname 5y agoI was just at the Microcenter this weekend and they had a few RTX 30x0s on the shelves and several of AMD RX6ks. Plus, tons (a dozne or so)of older models. Granted, you had to be willing to pay for them, because they only stock the Zotac brand RTX cards. They also had plenty of gaming laptops. In fact, the gaming laptops were basically all they had in stock. That demonstrates that market adjustments work to keep inventory in stock. Some people are willing to wait all morning in line to snag a $700 RTX 3070, but balk at the idea of paying $1100 for a Zotac RTX 3070. Which allows Joe Consumer to walk right into a store and get what they want.
- rdtwo 5y agoWhy not just pay a scalper off stock or eBay at that point? Do you really care who pockets the difference?
