Why GPU prices are so high?
The demand is greatly outnumbering the supply. The same GPU I bought last year for $300 is selling for over $650 on ebay. Trump’s tax tarifs are a major culprit, at least here in the US. 3rd party GPU vendors (think Asus, EVGA, Sapphire, etc) have had to markup prices by around 25% as a result, which is HUGE.
