It's unlikely I'll get caught out like this again. I don't do early adoption, this was unique case I expected to wait a few months and it wouldn't have been much of an issue. The only gaming I do is sim racing, I wanted to upgrade my VR setup and was fine waiting a few months given the circumstances.Given the current state, would anyone here change their buying strategy next time round?
I don't buy the latest and greatest cards, I'm more than capable of going with out. If I'd known going in how long the wait was going to be I would have just made do with my old setup. Now I have the HP G2 headset and a card that can't handle it.
Next time new products come out I'm going to wait until there's proper supply before I even consider buying one.
I've been left very bitter towards Nvidia though. I've been tempted by the 3090 a few times but I couldn't get over the fact that would be rewarding Nvidia for not being able to provide the service they said they would. If they were honest up front I could have made a better decision with regards buying the new VR headset and I wouldn't be in this position.
Next time, I won't be going for Nvidias new products, I'm going to wait.
