Despite the continued shortages, the GPU world is not standing idly by, especially with the next generation looming ahead. With Nvidia's RTX 40-series due out this September, and AMD looking to compete with its RDNA 3 range, the two tech behemoths are continuing to battle it out for market supremacy.

Of course, even though these new cards from team red have just become available, the retail listings only seem to highlight that there's still a problem supply-wise.

Although there were hopes that the situation that has been ongoing for a while now may have been improving, it's possible that the chip
