i don’t care about a post count. i care about waiting for days and days for some kind of a chance like everyone else to buy a friggin graphics card only to be dragged along. how hard is it to ramp up production for a launch? how impossible is it to conceive the idea that maybe you should stock up inventory because it’s going to go. are you telling me that the people who’s sole job it is to pay attention to the tech news and community have no idea about the demand for a new product?also, if anyone actually cares about their post count, that’s beyond pathetic. get these damn cards in, we’re not friends here, this is business and i’m buying.

Here's an idea...........how about having STOCK ON HAND before launch, so you're ready for the demand? I know it's crazy, and it's nuts, but not being able to grab a card is just silly!

I thought Jacob was Quite clear about why supply was low. My understanding was they had to make a running change in production with the cap change.
Relax the big ones coming

It's funny how short people's memories are. It's been the same since the 10 series. A buyer would be lucky if they found a 1080ti in stock for months after it's release. We hear talk about the lackluster release for the 20 series, but it was almost impossible to get a 2080ti for a couple of months after the launch because demand was higher than production. Now that the bots and scalpers have gotten involved, it's just made it worse.

If you're intent on blaming someone, try the retailers who have made no effort to curtail bots. In all honesty, they really don't care who buys products as long as they get paid. Personally, I applaud EVGA in taking the steps they've taken to insure the cards make it into the hands of the end user. No other manufacturers that I've seen are doing that.

Also, let's remember what Gamer's Nexus said. It's not water. It's not food. You're not going to die if you have to wait a few weeks for a graphics card.

I too have a build waiting on a new card. Just be patient and it'll happen when it happens, or we'll all die from the plague and it won't matter anyway.

This is not about customer need, it is about nvidia failure to harvest scientist/engineers invention and lucidity.
There is a sheep customer mentality (fool me as much as you want), and I have dignity customer mentality (don't lie to me).
I simply refuse to accept every stupid lie served by mega corporation.
