Radeon 500 GPU shortage continues
The GPU shortage currently mainly affects the Radeon 500 series and especially the 580 and 570 cards. These are the best for mining Ethereum right now with Geforce GTX 1060 as a good alternative..
If you are a gamer and you wanted to buy a card for gaming, this is a bad time to buy as prices [of cost effective cards] are at an all time high. There are some indications that the supply situation might improve before the end of the summer in the western hemisphere and get to a normal level before September.
We'll see what impact this has on RX Vega GPU (coming this month ??).
