        Nope. I mean I bought a laptop with an 5080 through a benefit at work that lopped off $1k… but that is DEFINITELY not what they’re talking about.

        And last time I was at bestbuy, the entire fucking cabinet of GPUs was full.

    I would think this is due to businesses buying high end GPUs for local AI workloads in workstations, not gamers.

      I have my 3080 from peak COVID. I keep whispering sweet nothings to it, my ram, and ssd drives each night to just hold on until this all gets better.
