On average a GPU cost $1,056 per unit in 2021, compared to it being a third of that price in 2019.
Sane prices still have not returned, even accounting for inflation.
My 1080ti is still going strong, which will probably be the last GPU I buy if the industry continues this way.
There's not really an incentive to buy a new GPU anyway IMO, half of the new features are either AI crap or features for building AI crap. AAA Games are shit as well due to corporate greed, so it's not like graphics are all that important
Would rather buy a console and have a computer with a beefier CPU and more RAM than pay 3x the worth of one component
Here's hoping Intel brings some sense to the competition but I highly doubt it'll change things
