ASUS warns of low AMD stock upon its launch

AMD’s Radeon RX, 6000 series graphics card, will be launched soon in the retail stores. But reports claim that the AMD Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards will have limited stock at launch. The stock issues were only specific to Radeon RX 6900 XT. However, according to sources, even the Radeon RX 6800 XT supply will be minimal. The card is expected to be sold out within minutes of the launch.

An ASUS representative released the following statement regarding the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT stock. “It will be quite limited: more RX6800, fewer 6800XT … as with basically all graphics cards now, we expect that everything will be gone in a few minutes, so you need to hang on the lock”.

However, the Radeon RX 6800 is expected to have a higher stock than the RX 6800 XT and RX 6900 XT. However, due to higher demand, the card may be sold out pretty fast.

The representative further added, “Yesterday I asked polish shop Morele.net about preorders, and they confirmed that there would be an option, but they don’t know yet when. Also, they said they expect problems with stock as it was with Nvidia GPUs. It should not be easy to get a new card to be cool. It is quite unexpected that Lisa Su dares to bet on this release date. I think it should only start to increase in December. The production capacity has always been sufficient, but how much of this production capacity of Navi may depend on Sony and Microsoft’s next-gen consoles.”

ASUS will release three variants for its Radeon RX 6000 series custom lineup. The ROG STRIX LC, ROG STRIX & TUF Gaming models will be launched by the manufacturer. The devices include Radeon RX 6800 XT and RX 6800 variants.

The Radeon RX 6800 XT and Radeon RX 6800 will launch in the retail market on 18th November. The RX 6800 XT will be priced at $649 US, and RX 6800 will be available at $579 US.
