That's a good question. I wonder how all the other suppliers for the home-build industry are doing because of the GPU situation? Are build volumes down significantly?

Personally, I just aborted a build because of it. Bought a used machine instead.
I'd think the prebuilt companies get hit the hardest. The crypto miners are buying from the same outlets as the home-builders so they won't be hurt, I mean they're the ones driving the prices up. Demand doesn't make it cost any more to produce anything at the foundry, the lack of stock is how newegg, microcenter, tigerdirect can justify upping the price. It then behooves AMD/Nvidia to keep demand up and focus on quality/efficiency than overall throughput.
