Sought after is not the same as sold. A Doge Challenger may be the most sought after Dodge, but the SXT is the one most sold.
Mhm. Even after the 3070 completely destroyed the 2070 Super at the same price you think it's normal for the number of 2070 Supers being sold to rise by 5x that of 3080s. Of course, with the 3070 not even on the chart.
You might've noticed that these cards are constantly selling out, and are in all kinds of OEM systems as well.
The 1060 stopped being produced a long time ago, and similar thing with Turing. Stocks are clearing out.
There is no extra production of these chips, especially not in the middle of a GDDR6 shortage.
In one month? I'd say that's a lot of cards sold.
Again, a fifth of all the 1070 Supers being sold.
And that is the most easily manipulated metric.
Sell nothing to the big 7 OEMs that supply 85% of the market.
Sell what little you have to a few retailers for DIY types who all combined supply maybe 1 or 2% of the market (social engineering given how vocal DIY types are).
Scan UK isn't the big seller for DIY then. Those would still be Amazon and Overclockers UK.
Scan UK are very small by comparison. They're not even DIY focused - something you'd know if you'd open the site. SCAN UK | PC components and online computer shop
Facts :
AMD isn't producing new Zen 2
You know Rome is still in production right? In fact, it's not only still in production, it's going to stay there for the next 2 years at least in some capacity.
As long as that's the case, Ryzen 3K series will remain in production, the same way OG Zen and Zen+ did
Not one of the major OEMs carrys Zen 3 (85% of the market)
I'm intrigued, got a source for the 85% figure?
Most DIY channels stay sold out of Zen 3 despite being the main target of supply (~5% of the market)
Depends heavily on the market. Again here in the UK we've had constant stock of the 5600X for 3 weeks now. The 5800X has been in stock for nearly a full week straight.
Only the 3rd tier SI's carry AMD, and their supply is sporadic as well and of course they also carry Intel (~10% of the market)
I find it hard to believe that SI's are both only an 1/8th of the supply that OEMs provide whilst also being twice that of DIY. Again, I'd like to see a source for these numbers.
RDNA 2 series still doesn't show up on steam, at all
Of course not, it's got basically no supply in general. But RDNA2 and Ryzen are two wholly different stories, and again the biggest proof I can provide is the Scan UK numbers right there. Nearly 4K Ryzen chips in the last week alone. 0 RDNA2 since launch.
