They'll sell out anyways due to lack of good competition. Intel is getting there but still have driver issues, AMD didn't announce their GPU prices yet but their entire strategy is following Nvidia and lowering the price by 10% or something.
AMD is the competition.
AMD hasn't been truly competitive with nVidia in quite a long time.
Weird completely unrelated question. Do you have any idea why you write "Anyway" as "Anyways"?
It's not just you, it's a lot of people, but unlike most grammar/word modifications it doesn't really make sense to me. Most of the time the modification shortens the word in some way rather than lengthening it. I could be wrong, but I don't remember people writing or saying "anyway" with an added "s" in anyway but ironically 10-15 years ago, and I'm curious where it may be coming from.

Although considered informal, anyways is not wrong. In fact, there is much precedent in English for the adverbial -s suffix, which was common in Old and Middle English and survives today in words such as towards, once, always, and unawares. But while these words survive from a period of English in which the adverbial -s was common, anyways is a modern construction (though it is now several centuries old).
Schrödinger's word. Both new and old, lol
I also write anyways that way, and so does everyone I know, I think it's a regional thing
I guess I'm used to saying it since I spent a long time not knowing it's the wrong pronunciation for it.
Interesting. Thanks.
Don't pick on the parseltongue.
