Edit
3070 beats 6800 on perf per dollar, when looking at msrp pricing but 6800 is priced several hundred dollars above it's 580 msrp and nowhere in sight because of no stock, making it an even worse deal (halo product for now). Several retailers already said that AMD stock won't become normal before deep into 2021, this includes upcoming 6700 series too
So.. Easy win for Nvidia - Going Samsung 8nm paid off it seems, AMD can't deliver chips because TSMC 7nm is overused at this point
"AMD Can't Deliver chips"....you're saying that as if Nvidia can deliver chips or has been delivering chips? Nvidia is just as bad, only at least with AMD, they need to use the same supply for CPUs, GPUs, and two brand new, extremely popular consoles....Nvidia literally has zero excuse for their supply shortages, and according to Moore's Law is Dead, who has been correct on just about everything for over a year now, Nvidia has done this purposely to drive prices up....it was a bait a switch, the MSRPs were purposely made attractive to alleviate the anger from Turing, but they purposely held back stock to drive the price up to satisfy AIBs who, at the MSRP, would have razor thin margins, so with short supply, the AIBs have been able to drive prices up and increase profit margins. Then on top of that , there's news reports, from reputable outlets, that Nvidia has been selling $100+ million in cards directly to crypto miners...I don't like taking sides, and while it's abhorrent that both companies don't have stock, it seems as though AMD's lack of stock has at least an understandable reason, whereas Nvidia's is just up to something nefarious. AMD, if they could, would absolutely want to have as much stock of GPUs to capture market share, so I don't see any reason for this shortage to be "manmade" on their end, whereas with NVidia, unless Samsung as the worst yields ever known in the history of microprocessors, I can't think of a legitimate excuse for their shortage.
