Gamers searching for cheap graphics cards during the holiday season might be in for disappointment. Nvidia's earnings for the third quarter beat analyst expectations as it doubled its profits year-over-year, mainly due to massive strides in the data center market and a healthy uplift in gaming revenue. But Nvidia CFO Colette Kress sounded an alarm during the earnings call as well — saying there's a potential gaming GPU supply shortfall coming this quarter.
"Q3 was a great quarter for Gaming with notebook, console, and desktop revenue all growing sequentially and year-on-year.... On Gaming, although sell-through was strong in Q3, we expect fourth-quarter revenue to decline sequentially due to supply constraints."
