can someone tell me why they keep anouncing new products when they cant even stock their current offerings?

Because business doesn’t sleep. Many many other industries continue to roll out new products and lines regardless of availability or popularity of previous products. Common practice.can someone tell me why they keep anouncing new products when they cant even stock their current offerings?
The A series is primarily OEM, and their OEM offerings never really dipped.can someone tell me why they keep anouncing new products when they cant even stock their current offerings?
they were, nvidia stopped with the quadro branding this generation.Aren't the A series cards Quadros?
They just announced a 12GB variant. (Link)
Really insane considering the form factor. Would love one of these for my HTPC at some point. Leagues better then my GTX 1650 which used to be the best option for low profile cards.
Curious if anyone here was able to pick one of these up?
An online review places it at 80% as powerful as an rtx 3060 in gaming scenarios which is kind of insane
The four digit ones are Quadros with the new branding. The 2 and 3 digit ones are server cards.Aren't the A series cards Quadros?

As with all "Quadro" type cards it will probably carry a price tag that makes this comparison silly. If you need a professional card, it may not be bad, but game performance will likely be pretty underwhelming.
easy replacement for all my P620'sWell, based on published core counts and clocks (3328 cores, 1200mhz boost) this will be quite a bit weaker than the gaming cards on the market.
I estimate ~63% of the performance of a reference 3060. Probably similar to a mobile 3050ti

It will be one of the weakest cards to get the RTX treatment.
It's Ampere.Does the 2000 mean its based on a Turing chip? Maybe a die shrunk Turing? Or is it Ampere? I wonder if getting these into small formfactor requires taking a 2080ti or 3080ti level chip (top binned chips) and just under volting/underclocking to fit the power envelope and available cooling. Or if it's based on Turing, maybe it's just die-shrunk. Maybe all of the above.
Looks like they have since announced 204 cards on the way since posting. Hopefully they actually make it. Gotta admit I bit. Still, paying full price and feeling like its a deal is not something I hope I get used to. I'll probably mine it to make the sticker shock feel a little better while I'm not gaming on it. Aparrantly it makes like $77 a month according to nicehash's calculator last I checked.https://www.shopblt.com/cgi-bin/sho...KG801P.shtml&order_id=846726504&sitem=B9KG801
Preorders are under 200 orders so far, thanks for the heads-up

But if you buy more, you'll save more!Yikes. $850, for something that probably performs along the lines of a 1060 but with RT capability?
Seems a bit steep to me.
It's a workstation card, that is about on-point. This is powered completely via the PCIe slot and fits in low profile cases, I've already contacted my supplier and got my name down for the first 8 he can get me because they are going in all my security monitors. It's going to really cut down on the encoding times and greatly improve the playback of the 4K video the system encodes from the cameras (currently equipped with P600's or P620's). I don't know WTF is wrong with people right now but I am spending way too much time right now getting video for the RCMP.Yikes. $850, for something that probably performs along the lines of a 1060 but with RT capability?

yeah probably.Seems to be a worldwide phenomenon these days.
I wonder how much of it is due to mental health flareups from the stressors resultant from a variety of things going on right now, including the pandemic.
At least that's the only explanation I can think of.
Supposedly it uses the same NVenc performance profile as the 1650 super but now includes AV1 decoding, so that's decent at least.I wonder how this baby can transcode for plex.
Though if I were doing another build I'd ditch my ryzen 3600 and get a new i3 with quicksync. those things are insane.
The RTX A2000 has an unrestricted number of concurrent encode sessions, while the GTX 1650 Super is restricted to three concurrent encode sessions.Supposedly it uses the same NVenc performance profile as the 1650 super but now includes AV1 decoding, so that's decent at least.
That's good to know, I was just going off the wiki for the NVenc, as the performance profiles of the two cards should be somewhat similar I thought it was relevant, but knowing the imposed limitations is a good thing.The RTX A2000 has an unrestricted number of concurrent encode sessions, while the GTX 1650 Super is restricted to three concurrent encode sessions.
I imagine the yet-to-be-released RTX 3050 will eventually get a HHHL variant or two, though it would be slower than the A2000. Question is how far into 2022 and price/availability.I've been watching this one for the same reason someone else pointed out - powered off the slot only and should outperform the LP 1650's I have now. My hope is there is a GF variant released. Maybe next year.
Anyone know when these are ever coming back, or are they just selling them ALL directly to miners? Totally kicking myself for not rushing to Microcenter (2 hour drive) to pick one up when they actually got some in stock. Looks like most ended up on eBay at $1000. Absolutely zero stock since they(MC) sold what they had. My order thru Lenovo (Dec 10th) got cancelled after a month. So I've since "pre-ordered" another thru ShopBLT, it's pushed out to 3 weeks now. Before that I figured what the hell, I'll get an A4000, that's been pushed back a week for 3 weeks running now. Hopefully it actually ships on the 20th this time, but I'm doubtful.
Yea a4000's at a reasonable price have been hard to get.
I did see this in stock

It's a whitebox though
I am also in line at ShopBLT. I remember the same thing happening when I tried to order an AMD 3300X from them. Ended up cancelling my order months later. Not a problem since they don't charge you in advance.Anyone know when these are ever coming back, or are they just selling them ALL directly to miners?

$1K? Yikes. Still, it remains the fastest and most VRAM-endowed low-profile GPU so I guess the price is the price. Potentially still worth it if someone needs a fast-ish GPU and it must be HHHLFor those trying to get the 12gb variant, regardless of price, there is an ebay seller right now with 10+ in stock for a hefty $1000 each. Can't seem to find them anywhere else that is actually shipping. (Link)
I was hoping that the RTX 3050 launch would have featured the same specs as the a2000, but no luck. No announced low profile models either, so this really is the best low profile option out there. No LHR at least to soften the blow I suppose.$1K? Yikes. Still, it remains the fastest and most VRAM-endowed low-profile GPU so I guess the price is the price.

I managed to score a half dozen of the 6gb variants for a decent price. Managed to replace all my P1000’s and P620’s so I’m happy there.I was hoping that the RTX 3050 launch would have featured the same specs as the a2000, but no luck.

Lucky.. I ordered a few from ShopBLT back in November & still waiting.. last update said July of this year.I managed to score a half dozen of the 6gb variants for a decent price. Managed to replace all my P1000’s and P620’s so I’m happy there.
CDW for me.Lucky.. I ordered a few from ShopBLT back in November & still waiting.. last update said July of this year.
Thanks, I had seen that earlier this week. These days it's a great deal, but I was trying to avoid having that kind of money "out" at the moment. I'm about to pull the trigger on a legit seat of SolidWorks + a CAM package (so around $7k or so), plus upgrade my spindle motor on my mill to a servo ($800), which means a might as well upgrade to Mach4($200) w/ a smooth stepper ($200 + new BoB).
SO tempting though.
Thank you, I couldn't believe it. I hit search real quick on that part number - it's an HP card, and a link to Provantage.com came up. They had them in stock as well for $1263, so I made an account and pulled the trigger. Hope I don't regret not going thru Staples...seems way more legit, but $60 is $60. :/https://www.staples.com/nvidia-rtx-a4000-other-pci-express-4-0-x16-16gb-gddr6-sdram-graphics-card-black-20x24at/product_IM19HQ676?ci_sku=IM19HQ676&KPID=IM19HQ676&adlclid=2b0f18f88df81fae881a7af800737d9e&cid=PS:MS:SBDLA:Other&msclkid=2b0f18f88df81fae881a7af800737d9e&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Dynamic Remarketing - Technology&utm_term=2330071297813118&utm_content=Dynamic Remarketing - Technology
Maybe it's in stock? Shows a ship date, so maybe. Still overpriced (even for an a4000)
