The card prices have gone up pretty significantly and availability has been bad for the last few years, they also have been segmenting their product line in ways where some of the lower tier cards are not very compelling vs previous release cycles. I don't know if that's attributable to them "forgetting about gamers" but it's what people are upset about.
- cma 3y agoCompare price performance and it isn't so bad, assuming you add in an adjustment for AMD's lack of features.

The hoarding isn't going to stop unless there are either efficient alternatives that are competitive on performance and price. Perhaps that is why I keep seeing gamers crying over GPU prices and unable to find cheap Nvidia cards due to the AI bros hoarding them for their 'deep learning' pet projects. So they settle with AMD instead.
