    I mean GPU prices never really came back down after the crypto boom.

    Nvidia renamed their GPUs, creating xx90 SKUs to replace the xx80 so they could justify the price increase. The xx80 is the old xx70, etc.

        Well the dollar amounts never went back to their old levels AND they now sell you lower binned GPUs under the same name. So I’m not too sure they’re back at the old levels. Like you should compare the 5070 price to the 960, not the 970.
