Skyrocket or Skyfall: The Rollercoaster Ride of RTX 4090 Graphics Card Prices
China’s ban on RTX 4090 graphics cards has led to a bonanza for some, and a ‘Houston, we have a pricing problem’ for others. With the cards being repurposed for AI accelerators, the RTX 4090 AI Blower is causing a global price hike. So, buckle…
Hot Take:
It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's the skyrocketing price of RTX 4090 graphics cards! The situation over at China's AI farms is turning out to be a real GPU-nanza for those lucky enough to hoard these before the ban. But for the average Joe in the US and elsewhere, it's a case of "Houston, we have a pricing problem".
