i think its safe to say at these price they are out of reach of most consumers. i think Nvidia needs a big bad blue wake up call. Come on intel you're our only hope!

i created this post and Im am not even looking at a 4090 now, its just far to much!

China is probably hoovering up as many RTX4090 cards as it can:

Sidestepping GPU ban, Chinese factories dismantle and transform Nvidia RTX 4090 gaming cards into AI accelerators

Thousands of GeForce RTX 4090 transformed into AI accelerators.

Astonishing what the mainland will do to get on the AI hype train. I know a few students living over here that are hoovering up cards to send back to china and they're making a killing out of it, how they're shipping it i have no idea though.
 
Some of them are cheaper than they were at release still .. for example i purchased a Zotac Trinity OC on release day from Overclockers and it cost me £1830 at the time but can grab that same card now for £1790 so £40 cheaper than i paid over a year ago so not all doom and gloom and not quite at the level the 3090 were during the mining craze :cry:
 
Personally I don't see a problem with the 4090 prices - many commodity markets if you want the best of the best it will cost you, it is the rest of the stack where they are taking the mick.
 
I paid a smidge less than 2K for a Zotac Amp extreme Airo on release day and now OCUK has it at £2160 for pre-order :eek:
Insane! (and that's just me for paying that much for a GPU) worth it though :D
 
Apparently what's left of the 4090 in China can be found selling for up to $7000, so if you guys wanna re-sell your 4090's to China you can make a pretty profit... just don't tell the US

The performance per dollar is so bad at that price I can't fathom who is buying them. But a lot of it has to do with VRAM as well, not just AI performance. Some factories in China are now taking old RTX3000 cards which still have decent performance and modifying them to have 20gb+ vram and it's the high vram that makes them valuable

And Nvidia has already announced it's going to once again try to skirt the export bans by making a RTX4090D. The 4090D is a cut down 4090 with fewer cores, lower clocks and lower power draw. The card will have the same MSRP as the normal 4090 and assuming the 4090D doesn't also get banned, they intend to start shipping these to China
