AMD R9 Fury X In Short Supply – Selling For Up To $899, Used Cards For Over...

胸口碎大石

AMD Radeon R9 Fury X graphics cards have recently become so hard to come by, that even used cards now cost more than the official $650 MSRP. Prices for new Radeon R9 Fury X cards have climbed up even. With cards now being listed for up to $899 on Amazon.com, a full $250 over the official MSRP. The Radeon flagship from the red team has repeatedly went out of stock in all major US retailers since its official launch a couple of months ago. The demand for the card is evidently still strong, while the supply hasn’t clearly improved since launch. Combine the two and the result is the significant inflation that we see today.

AMD CEO Lisa Su had previously addressed the issue of supply after it was posed in a question by an Analyst during the company’s Q2 2015 earnings call.

[July 16 2015] Lisa Su :
Our initial ramp-up has been as expected, we’re pleased with the Fury X ramp-up. Certainly the fact that it’s out of stock is not a bad thing cause it gives us good confidence that the customers are appreciating the product. Fury just launched actually this week and we will be launching Nano in the August timeframe. I think overall the High Bandwidth Memory ramp-up is going as expected and we have a number of products coming out.” Said Dr Lisa Su, AMD President and CEO.

Used AMD Radeon R9 Fury X Cards Are Now Worth More Than What People Paid For Them When They Were New Two Months AgoCurrently Amazon has multiple R9 Fury X cards listed with an asking price that ranges between $799 and $899 from third party retailers as Amazon itself had run out of stock and so has Newgg.com.  At those prices we’re looking at a $150+ mark-up imposed by retailers over the official MSRP of $650 which would translate to an inflation rate of 23%-38% over MSRP.

So prices have noticeably climbed up and it’s the same story for used R9 Fury X cards as well. On ebay there’s currently only one listing for a used R9 Fury X, an auction with 37 bids and a current bid of $660 as I write this. So it’s quite amazing when you think about it. Those who bought their R9 Fury X cards at launch for $649 can actually sell their used cards today and make a profit.
