Why is every popular graphic card out of stock ??

[Merp97]

Most popular cards like RX 580,GTX 1060,GTX 1070 are either out of stock or priced very high due to mining .When can we expect the situation to be normal ??

When Ethereum becomes so hard to mine that normal GPUs can't do it effectively and people have to buy cards specifically made for mining crypto-currency.

Probably not for awhile as long as mining is still profitable.

Just look at the current prices of the RX 580, here in Aus they usually sell for around $400, shops are listing them for $650-700 and they are still being bought out.
So as long as miners think they can still turn a profit the current situation is going to continue.

There isn't much anyone can do. I think most of these cards will still be hard to find when Black Friday comes. Expect supplies to be limited or grossly overpriced until around February 2018.
