I think it's pretty evenly spread between AMD and NVidia GPU's this series, not sure that everyone is waiting for the 3080, a lot of people are on the 6000 series thread.

Yep. There are generally more AMD cards in the market at the moment.
I know, but why there is more AMD cards in the market at the moment. is is because AMD cards and drivers are bad?.

No, because they're producing more.
They're on and off pre order exactly the same as NVidia cards, no different. Just at the moment, PCS must have had a shipment come through.
Ok thanks for the info SPYDERTRACKS
The AMD cards are great, they are strangely positioned though. Check their prices vs the Nvidia ones. Before the 6800 was the same price as a 3070, where i’d go for the 6800, but if the 6800 is closer to 3080 pricing... the 3080 beats it. The 3080 also beats the 6800XT, but the 6900XT i believe beats the 3080.
Price fluctuation is important here, as the price may not be in line, with its direct competitor equal.

The Nvidia GPUs also have a few more features that give them the edge over AMD in areas other than raw output. In terms of pure output the AMD GPUs are on par with their Nvidia counterparts and sometimes have the edge in particular titles. But when you look at Ray Tracing, DLSS, and NVENC AMD are behind in these areas. If you want to play Cyberpunk with RT you ideally want to be doing it with a 3000 series GPU, and if you want to stream, using Nvidia's built in NVENC encoding cores to take the load off your CPU is the way to go
But the AMD cards have 'Rage Mode'... I think a purchase is valid simply for having a feature with that name
