Why in the world do you want artificially inflated prices to be official prices? Not only do consumers get hurt but also PC Makers would need to pay the higher inflated prices. This is 100% a supply issue. The miners want video cards but th

I don't think the $700+ space is where they need to win. They need to win the APU, $200 and even less so the $500 price points. They already have a very compelling server GPU with the Radeon Instinct MI cards.
