While Nvidia's RTX 30 series cards have been popular, supply chain constraints, price inflation and a booming crypto market meant that many gamers have been unable to get one. Things are starting to turn around though, as RTX 3080 and RTX 3060 Ti Founders Edition cards have just been re-stocked at MSRP in the UK, and second-hand GPUs on eBay have also come down in price considerably, putting the days of a £1500 RTX 3080 behind us for good (hopefully).

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has fined Nvidia $5.5 million USD over claims that the company hid how many of its gaming graphics cards were sold to cryptocurrency miners. The SEC says that Nvidia misled investors by reporting revenue as "gaming" revenue, when in fact that money was coming from crypto-related sales. 

Early rumours about RDNA 3 GPUs were quite ambitious, claiming the new GPUs would feature up to as many as 15,360 streaming processors. Since then, development has progressed and new information has come to light. With that in mind, a number of leakers have begun revising their previous claims with …

The GPU market is in shambles and has been for some time. Graphics card prices are through the roof and 2021 saw an array of lacklustre launches from both AMD and Nvidia, who many accuse of cashing in on the crisis.
