Causes of Soaring VGA Prices

February 13 Nvidia returns to production of GTX 1050 Ti and RTX 2060Nvidia has indirectly confirmed that the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti and GeForce RTX 2060 GPU are from the old VGA model.Now more are sent to manufacturers to be assembled into VGA.Nvidia is trying to fill the VGA void due to high demand when supplies of chips and components are scarce.As previously mentioned, Nvidia is looking to further offer the GeForce RTX 2060 (produced from January 2019) and the older GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (in October 2016).An Nvidia spokesperson indirectly confirmed this when asked by PC World. “We are just meeting market demand, which, as we have noticed, is growing steadily”Component problems occur in the production of new models of chips and memory.While the RTX 2060 GPU chip is still being produced with 12nm technology from the TSMC silicon factory.Can save factory capacity there, because more sophisticated factories are already operating at full capacity.Interestingly, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPU chip still uses 14nm technology.The chips are manufactured from the Samsung factory.Another problem with the VRAM memory used is that GDDR6 for the latest VGA is becoming scarce, due to a shortage of components, Nvidia sees GDDR5 still allowing for the GTX 1050 Ti VRAM.How much do the GTX 1050 Ti and RTX 2060 cost.The lowest price ever for the GTX 1050 Ti is just $140, while the RTX 2060 is $350.But online it has reached $400 and $700. Whether Nvidia will be able to lower the price of the two VGAs, I don’t think so.Nvidia just fills the gap in the supply of high-end VGA models with older VGAFor GeForce RTX 3000, since the publication of the lack of inventory and VGA production.It is expected to continue in the next few months, and demand remains very high.Same condition with AMD with the new VGA RX6000 with RDNA-2 architect. Practically VGA is like missing from the market.Another condition is the problem of demand from Cryptomining, making the price of new VGAs continue to skyrocket.Not only the new VGA, but the old VGA is also sought.In 2020, not a good year for gamers. The VGA is empty, the game console is also empty, because the demand exceeds the factory’s production capacity.Same fate with Nvidia and AMD. When Nvidia released a new VGA, supplies in online stores ran out immediately.The year 2021 will probably hit other components such as motherboards and VGA production. Including the Bitcoin affair that brushes up a lot of the Geforce RTX 3080.Things were pretty much the same in 2017, when virtual money miners took too much VGA. Until the manufacturer warns their VGA is not used for mining, please buy a special VGA Mining product.Bitcoin on January 6, 2021 was valued at over $34,000, and broke the value of the most expensive Cryptocurrency in early 2021.Whereas a month earlier it was only $19,111, so it doubled.Anyone can mine Bitcoin from a computer as long as they have a fast computer. With a powerful engine and mining faster, of course by adding more VGA units.The value of the GeForce GTX 1060 Ti they bought for $399, half in 80 days will be back on investment.Even though the Bitcoin value will eventually drop again and miners will stop using VGA. The question is when? Until now, no one knows when the price of VGA will go down.
