While the main gain for gamers is that is supposed to be less desirable for miners since the hash rate is very low. So the news should be taken with a grain of salt. You won't be able to get a current gen, but at least you may possible get an older model with improved hardware to hold of until the situation gets better.

Even current gen is fast approaching previous gen. I'm so glad I lucked out and nabbed one right before tariffs hit and then price bumps on top of that. Actual MSRP purchase! $8xx for a 6800xt (plus tax... sigh.) So paranoid it'll just quit on me, so I'm running it on default settings, no OC, not even "rage mode".
