Zotac and PNY don’t make the chips, NVIDIA at fault here. Some people care because they don’t actually have a ton of money, but gaming is their hobby and they’ve saved up 2-3 years so they can afford a high end card because it’s worth it to them the extra $50 or $100 represents the difference between being able to afford the card and not, or maybe having a couple of extra games to play on it.

But Nvidia have clearly sold them the chips and told than that some of those cores aren’t working. And they said OK and hoped nobody would really notice.

What NVIDIA have told AIBs is completely unknown, but NVIDIA certainly hold all the power, if NVIDIA say ship them, they ship them.
Note there have been reports of FE cards, MSI, Zotac, Gigabyte and Manli all impacted.
