AMD Radeon R9 290X price still inflated, but only in North America

Just to stay "on topic" how is your post any helpful at all to the thread? Guess what finger I'm holding ;)
Pretend this is on the seat of your bobsled, " (y) ", we're at the Winter Olympics, and it's time for you to make your run....And please do continue to have a nice day.

Since I'm 65 and haven't learned a damned thing during that time, why don't you explain once again how, "supply and demand" works. Make it simple for me, us old timers have a hard time setting things in our minds.

Wait, I've got it.... you could write an equation......!:D

And to traverse the long , arduous path back to topic, you're right about one point, needing a video card(s) of the potential we're discussing, is to one extent or another, a gaudy display of excess abundance. That's not really intended as value judgment, just my humble take on the excesses inherent in human nature.

Women are the same way about diamond rings (*), and hip hop artists go in for tremendously tacky fur coats..... (plus the "grill work", and a couple dozen diamond rings thrown in for good measure).

(*) Plus possibly pool boys, designer dresses, and if you believe that hatchet faced biddy from, "Sex & the City", tons of shoes.

Although, the exploits of "Amelda Marcos", would tend to bear the whole "shoe fetish" paradigm out.

Why are miners to blame for high prices? Greedy sellers are just trying to make an extra buck if you ask me.

how can you blame them our economy is capitalism based. It allows the economy to keep growing. The basis of greed is the meaning of life without it there is no reason to keep moving forward.

Have you ever heard of punctuation marks? I ask this because you dispensed so much wisdom, without ever coming up for air....

And in direct response, our economy is going to have to grow without my contribution for one of these cards. Dear Lord, I surely do hope it survives.To whom should I send the "tough s***", condolences card?
