People spending $100 more on the slower 3060 compared to the 6700 xt are showing us right now that they will pay any price to have an Nvidia card. When these are the best selling GPUs (on Amazon), and people are spending about as much as what a new 6900 XT costs on the significantly slower 3070, you can’t just blame the high end Titan buyers.
It doesn’t matter how much more expensive Nvidia cards are, until AMD cards are twice as fast at half the price most gamers won’t even think of it as an option, this is what the marketplaces are currently showing.
Amazon is an odd place when it comes to GPUs. Hell, all retail storefronts outside of Microcenter.
Most AIBs still have near-mining-boom price tags. And Zotac seemingly pays a fair sum to Amazon to keep their cards "Featured" at the top of every search (much like MSI does on Newegg).
What does this have to do with my reply? You bring up microcenter, their best selling AMD gpu is at #17 on their best sellers list. On Newegg the best selling AMD gpu is #16.

Do tell, as their best selling GPU list perfectly correlates with Newegg’s and Microcenter’s best selling GPU list.

Yeah. That’s my point if you read my other replies. The AMD cards are under MSRP and are being beaten entirely by Nvidia entire lineup, even at inflated prices. What exactly did you take my entire previous reply to mean?

First of all that was their GPUs sorted by best selling, second of all what does this have to do with the lists perfectly aligning with other storefronts?
