Supposedly this next line will have hardware designs that explicitly discourage mining. This may very well be rushed out specifically because regular consumers can't get their last line.

https://www.techradar.com/news/how-cryptomining-is-making-it-harder-to-find-the-graphics-cards-you-want

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-56114508
Graphics card-maker Nvidia says it will deliberately reduce the efficiency of its latest card by 50% when it is used to mine the crypto-currency Ethereum.

Crypto-currency enthusiasts have contributed to a shortage of graphics cards by snapping up supplies to use for non-gaming purposes.

Nvidia said it had intervened to make sure its products "end up in the hands of gamers".

But it will also sell a bespoke crypto-currency mining processor.

EDIT: The 3060 had firmware locks which were bypassed like the week the card was released, which is why they said their next line would have stronger barriers.

What is the reason?

the well reported chip shortage that's impacting countless industries, combined with it actually being a card worth buying unlike the 20 series for people on 10series looking to ugprade, combined with more people working from home and being able to more easily justify upgrading their machine.

Crypto isn't helping, absolutely, but that's been the case for a long time.

Crypto isn't helping, but I think it's like not even the top 5 reason why cards are in shortage, despite production being up.

I don't know why people keep getting so excited over every little graphical update. How many visual enhancements does a person need? We can already see pores on skin. What more do you want?!

I'm convinced a 3080 ti wont actually exist in the flesh. It'll just be pixels.

I'll buy it if it's actually available and around the MSRP, I'm not paying upwards of $6000 for a graphics card when I could get an entire prebuilt system including a 30-series GPU for less.
