Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Tracked GPU prices daily for 3 months. Watching the ~32% jump happen in real time didn't make it any less annoyingEnglish
1·21 days agofrom what I’ve tracked, it lines up with the broader chip shortage story, component costs have gone up across the GPU supply chain. on top of that, the RTX 5090 specifically has extra demand from people running local AI models since it’s the best consumer card with 32GB VRAM, so it’s pulling on both gamers and AI/compute users at once.

yes, this is exactly why i built pricesquirrel too, to see the price gaps between countries since i’m finnish and its often cheaper to buy from germany…
