Look at what the Ethereum difficulty has done in the last 2 weeks.
By the time you get those cards you are searching for they'll be earning 25% less. Undecided

The impact of every AMD video card on the planet coming online:

Yep, buddy of mine just lit up a 240 GPU mini farm last week hashing 7GH on ETH. Planning to add another 400 cards over the next few weeks, slowly turning into a mini whale.

Omg. It's the cancer of this planet - looking for more profit, when difficulty is going skyhigh... Why everybody can't be good with 10-20-50 gpus even 100. No everybody whose in take not 10 but 200 cards burning lots of power (especially in Ukraine or Russia or Belarus where power cost is 2-4c), they mine like hell, but it's going to be less for everyone when they try to catch up with the biggest cake... 1000 gpus farms are now small... My god what it has ddone. About 19M Cards is mining eth alone? WTF?

Mining centralization just like with Bitcoin. We all knew this wasn't going to be "everybody gets a little bit" for long. AMD could give less of a fuck because their cards are selling like hotcakes, I personally hope Vega won't be like this or it'll be another shitshow. I assure you there are ten thousand card mining facilities out there. If Bitcoin had not gotten ASICs I guarantee you this situation would also have happened.

Dear XXX,

We are facing global GPU supply shortages and so we can't address your question precisely. Increasing the product availability is our top priority, but it will take a couple of weeks at least, it seems 😞

STC team

interesting but no one seems to know what caused it ? .I Mean did weather cause it and they can't get something out of the Ground because of weather . or it is some thing worse the Chip makers want a lot more money they are greedily as hell now .I wonder what caused it , I haven't seen any bad news headlines that might, other then trumps 9 day event that was a waste of US tax players Dollars imo .. or some thing far worse they run out of the mats needed with no way of getting them or supply demand is at a all time high and everything sold out AMD wise , while you can still buy NV Cards all most any were at the same price they all ways were ...that should say a lot about AMD "_)

OR AMD is about to go under, which would be bad for the Market , then Intel and NV can jack up prices ...AMD stops them both now.

two weeks can mean weeks sigh NV sells will pick up for sure ..

In concert will all this, it's interesting how the AMD vega delivery schedule is also slipping.

it's the same in the US right now unless you want to pay this

https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA85V5MP6059

any place IVe looked in the US it's hard to find a good Price for a AMD Card all the places i looked at are either out of stock or have only one two cards on sell at very high prices, they normally don't sell for.

NV cards seem to be the only ones on sell from GTX 1060 and up at reason able prices ...

I don't know what happen ? does any one else ? . i can't fine much on the WEB why .

Was it something our ass holes leader did during his 9 day event they May have screwed the US .

Just buy the cards now for $500 and return them 2 weeks later

I think Amazon does 30 day returns.

That's really expensive. I bought the RX 570 version of exactly that card last week, and paid just above half of that price. And they are still available to buy for the same price this week.

Some web sites here in Sweden are listing the RX470 as 50+ in stock, but I suppose it all depends on how large quantities you are looking for. The new RX 570 and 580 are typically only available in smaller quantities.

What's the difference between GTX 1060 3GB and RX 470/570 4GB ?
I see the difference about 4-5MH/s (stock 20 vs 24-25, OC'ed 24 vs 29MH/s), and power consumption (about 40W higher with RX).
The price in my country seems the same or even lower than when RX's where in stock (but when RX was in stock for a while it was cheaper than GTX, now they catch up).

The RX570 seems sold out globally.

You can still buy the RX580 but its almost double from the 570 and less than 10% faster.

You can always buy NVIDIA 1060/1070/1080, they are always in stock but expensive.

Even if you buy the GPUs, you will most likely have trouble finding 5+ GPU motherboards.

Even if you buy the GPUs+Motherboards the USB risers from China have shipment delays of 90+ days. Unless you buy some domestically which are always overpriced.

Should at least temporarily stop the difficulty rise... for those already with a bunch of rigs.

Search on low SEO-optimised websites and medium companies, like your hometown public IT reseller. I found many websites in my country (FR) that still sell RX (non Sapphire) that can reach 28/29MH.

Yeah, there are some even in UK, but not worth it due to shipping/vat.

I am building mining rigs, so I need higher density. Best option, so far, are R9 380X, nice hash rate and okay price.

I actually do have some old 280X/290X but the power consumption is too high.

I guess I will be waiting for next batch. I find it funny that you cannot find single RX GPU, even for gaming.

MindFactory.de has some cards. https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/8GB-PowerColor-Radeon-RX-580-Red-Dragon-V2-Aktiv-PCIe-3-0-x16--Retail-_1173132.html

The distributors in Poland are told that the shortages are temporary and next shipment is 5-6/6/2017. Wholesalers have +1000 card orders waiting, so I don't know how long the shipment will last.

I know there more cards available in Australia, but shipping/vat is not worth it.

I've tested some RX 560 Sapphire 4GB and they run 14.5MHs 1300/2100, so half the speed of RX 470 and 60W at stock voltage. You might still be able to find some cheap RX 560 and put them into some cheap Dells/HP.

Have you considered used R9 290X or R9 280x??

aka ...

If you want to find cheap stuff,
you have 2 be patiant,
otherwise you have to pay some premium
(I can offer some from germany, but I rather won´t like to sell)
even the same as trying to get a L3+ before august .

... that´s what we have actually in crypto mining market.
