Exactly what it says in the title, how long do you doods think it'll take before graphics cards manufacturers get enough materials to produce enough cards to normalize prices?

Hopefully it won't take too long, some of us definitely need an upgrade (and I've been eyeing the cute little babby EVGA 1060 shown here:https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01IPVSGEC/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3VOI0QYB217KM&coliid=IG22HPMFECQ8U&psc=1 )

...What?

As far as I know, there is no material shortage, just a manufacturing shortage, a distinctively different problem that happens every single year. It's a bit worse this year, because of the perfect storm of VR adoption, the price of 4K and double-wide monitors/TVs is finally 'reasonable,' and some nifty shenanigans by nVidia engineers that have led to a higher then usual yearly performance increase.

Because of that, it's hard to say when when stocks will rise. Probably a month or two. Most likely two.

1. Gotcha, my mistake
2. Gotta wait another 2 months at least, huh? Well, it'll give me plenty of time to save up.
