If the information we were told is correct, then Nvidia is having some problems ramping up the production of the GT200 series, and this sounds all too familiar when it comes to new Nvidia products.

We’ve heard that even large distributors have a hard time getting more than a handful of cards and that is only if they place large orders of products that Nvidia’s partners have overstock of.

This isn’t the first time this has happened when it comes to Nvidia products, and we’re not sure if it’s a deliberate scam to push up prices of these highly sought-after cards. With the additional requirements of the distributors having to buy additional cards to get their hands on the new fast cards, we’re really starting to wonder what kind of games Nvidia is playing.

So, in other words, if you want one of these new cards when they launch, if you see one for sale, get it, as you won’t get a second chance.
