In addition to this, they claim that the average selling price for GPUs hasn't gone up, with most volume sales to normal, non-bitcoin users preferring the GTX 1030 and 1050 to the point where they've been the most sold GPUs this generation thus far making this one way to make up the difference. One person familiar with the matter suggested that it's a stock dumping exercise with an announcement for Volta expected soon.
