Sales started worldwide yesterday RTX 3080 Ti, however, traditionally everything went with problems – in Russia, the main site was a store DNS, whose website began to slow down shortly before the start of sales.
“It is impossible to distribute them so that everyone is happy. An economic solution in the form of an auction so that the cards go to those who need it more is impossible for a number of reasons“.
The lucky ones or the owners of bots were lucky enough to get a video card.
“But there were also those who used bots ineptly, which led to failures on the site, up to complete inoperability. And of course I am ready to accept just reproaches, because we ourselves, as a result, revealed jambs on a page of text.“.
Those who wish can try their luck next week – on the 10th, sales of the RTX 3070 Ti will begin, which will be sold in Russia from 58 thousand rubles.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, the demand for video cards has increased around the world – in parallel, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have grown to record values (they all recently fell on a large scale), which is why miners began to actively buy cards.
As noted by Alekseev, the situation with video cards is unlikely to improve significantly by the end of the year.
