What happened to graphics cards prices?

His real name is “黃仁勳”, or “Jen-hsun Huang” in latin letters.

OK. Thanks. I dont know where “Adam Jensen” comes from. Maybe its some kind of insult. That one guy seems to hate him. :man_shrugging:

could have sworn his name was same as the charcter.

Crypto happened, and then when crypto died AI came in to replace it.

The only reason Nvidia can get away with that is because they have no competition on the high end.

If you want an entry level GPU that’s affordable though, Intel has now taken over that market since noone else has any interest in it.

Food goes up moderately in price: “Corporate greed!”

Graphics cards triple in price: “It’s just supply and demand/inflation.”

People crack me up :stuck_out_tongue:

inflation, chip shortage, demand and tariffs all contributed toward the insane spike in almost all hardward

I was so happy when the NVIDIA share price tanked after Deepseek blew them up. Then the guy behind openai had the audacity to get upset that Deepseek stole his data that he in turn, stole from all of us.

It’s thieves all the way down in the AI bros world.

Gotta make it WoW related somehow.

Like this: “WTF happened to graphics cards prices? In Warcraft.”

Eh. At this point I’m pretty confident that a mod will delete this thread regardless, so I’ma just let them do their thing.

The things people flag around here. It almost seems like it’s an impulse they just can’t overcome.

Not so sure their claims are very realistic… or not lies. But it comes from China, and trust what ever you like I guess.

Chances are it’s a disinformation campaign associated with their lust for Taiwan. But I’d have to look into it more.

You’ll need a 20% down payment at 5% financing for your next computer.

And still use it to play WoW.

And my first born. Don’t forget about the first borns. They’re very useful for this sort of thing.

may i please know whats the best card for WoW, that you would recommend right now?

If you’re only gonna play wow? Probably anything in the 20 series for nvidia cards would suffice. My 1080ti still plays wow more or less fine on max settings. I’ll get frame rate stutters/dips now and then depending on what’s happening in game. But 95% of the time it plays it perfectly fine.

I mean. It’s not china saying how much better it is.

I buy what will run wow optimally. You dont need to break the bank for a graphics card on games. Those $6k ones are name brand or way more than what you need unless your crypto mining?

PowerColor Red Dragon AMD Radeon™ RX 6800 XT was great. Though seems unavailable now. Hm… but $450 and has ray tracing. Played Cyberpunk top graphics no issue.
