So you're telling me they ordered 50,000 of one specific card? And not to mention in that specific paragraph he seemed to be talking about the issues around the GPU launches as a whole, that's the thing that's getting me.
When talking about backorders he does say several thousand, but I don't see anywhere that's above 5,000 backorders for one single card make. Just struck me as weird.
I think you will find that Post and Thread in specific is to do with AMD 6800 series only which they are already price gouging on compared to others.
Pity they did not take the same approach on the 3000 series from Nvidia, obviously their poor management of that has bit them in the ass and so the new approach with AMD cards.
Saying they do not manufacture them is in no way easing the poor stock they get compared to others though at least on the 3000 series..
