Why would the price of EVGA's 1GTX 1070 FTW Gaming card, go up in price almost $100 in 3-4 months time.
Is it Availability not meeting demand, so we are able to charge a little more?
 
Is it mining, taking away stock from the PC enthusiasts, so increase the price to keep the miners at bay?
 
I hope the next gen cards arrive soon, and that there is some sort of surplus.. or i might have to just stick with console gaming.
Sure hope not.
 
Now i know i sold my USED 1070 FTW on CL, for more than i paid, taking advantage of the used market as it stands right now.
I didnt want to sell it, but circumstances and the way the market is right now tipped my hand to sell.
MSRP for a 1070ti is $449, EVGA's price for the 1070 FTW is $549.  EVGA's 1070ti is $549.
 
So did EVGA just up the price on all the top cards by $100?

Nvidia announced EOL on the 10 series. So what is out in the market will probably be all that's there.

When did they announce that?

Yep. Shame too. The new Turing cards seem to be targeting crypto miners, and us gamers are left in the dust in nvidia’s eyes.

How can you just make a statement like this without providing a source? I HIGHLY doubt they are halting production of 10 series graphics cards, LOL.

Google yields no results, so again how hard is it to post a link?
 
Edit: If what you're saying is true, I should be able to type "nvidia" into google news and find some info about this lol.
 
Edit 2: Ah, it's a rumor being stated as fact. If in fact it is true I'd like to see some concrete statement from NVIDIA themselves. In any case, if the next series is really only a month away it makes sense; didn't realize that was the case.

There are numerous reports linked in new-product threads and mining-related threads in the news section of this forum.
https://forums.evga.com/C...Industry-News-f27.aspx

Also, you can find similar reports in "elite membership is a joke" and "what is happening to EVGA forums?" and other Elite membership spam complaint threads in the General section of this forum; where members complain about all the spam latey and why elite membership spam is pointless since there are no video cards to purchase anyway.

Also, you can find similar reports in threads in the cryptocurrency section of this forum.

For example:

RUMOR: NVIDIA Ampere GA104 GPU Powering ‘GeForce GTX 2080’ and ‘GeForce GTX 2070’ Launching In April, Mass Production Has Begun And GP102 is EOL


Edit: I did google it.
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=nvidia+10+series+eol

There is no official reports yet, that I know of, but lots of rumors and leaks which appear to be true based on other rumors and leaks and based on the stock status and actions of NVIDIA and its AIB partners. There will be no official announcement until NVIDIA is ready to announce its new product line and lift the NDA.

If in fact it is true I'd like to see some concrete statement from NVIDIA themselves.

Read edit above.

You will not get an official statement until the new product is announced. This is protected information covered by NVIDIA NDA. This is nothing new. That is why it is always only rumors and leaks at this point. Either believe it or don't. Either way, you have no new card stock in front of you except for a little remaining trickling in from time to time. Take that evidence for what it is.

For example, EVGA Elite cards haven't been available since late December or early January. Why? Hmmm... EVGA just decided to stop selling Elite cards? Almost no cards are available anywhere and there are very few or very discouraging stock replenishment estimates at retailers. Why? They are that in-demand? They were always in-demand; but stock never got this bad. Now, all of the sudden, there is no stock and almost no restock. Why? Put two and two together.
