China ban must still be on?
Soldato
Probably the opposite now that the ban is off.
China will be hoovering up all the 4090's they can get their hands on at inflated prices, just in case another ban comes into effect, thereby pushing the price up for everybody.
Soldato
Is it off? Videocardz pulled the story.
Soldato
Techspot report still up.
Soldato
Gone mate.
Soldato
LMAO, it was there seconds ago!
Maybe the ban is still.on then, if so, why the 4090 price increase?
Probably down to Nvidia cutting supplies.
Soldato
Few retailers have ran out of 4090s completely. Looks like a supply issue, unless they have decided to pack it in all at the same time.

Chinese buying up all supply like the crypto farms did a few years back.

I don't think the market is that reactionary. Supply has been drying up and prices rising for a while now.

Can't wait to see what the 5090 is going be - it looks like the cheapest ones are going to start at 2K. What am I talking about 2K? There's cards at 2K now and well above, the Strix is 2.3K - they're not even the the water cooled cards at that! Looks lke it's going to TWO AND A HALF GRAND for a bargain bin 5090...
But no, thery're not profiteering, it's all down to the exchange rates dontcha know?

Amazing how they go up in price while already sitting in stock gathering dust.

Some things do raise an eyebrow. Like the 4090 Gaming Trio that was on sale for £1599 a few weeks back now £1759. Rumors are Nvidia is charging the board partners more to raise the price, to make the refresh look better. Some weird things going on like Nvida website removing all retailers but one (including ocuk) off their website. It no longer does price comparisons between retailers.
Yeah that’s in the realm of rockstar / ‘I don’t care’ pricing now. Even if people can afford halo product pricing, nobody wants to swallow a ‘bad deal’.
As mentioned, maybe a partial Black Friday thing and/or then gearing up for a 4080 TI launch to make those higher prices seem more reasonable. Dunno.

If that were true then nobody would have bought the 4000 series and the 7000 series.
It ain't weird, it's just nvidia doing what nvidia always does which is to play everybody for a fool and it works on some.

It’s very pricey but I don’t think a 4090 at £1500 - £1700 is terrible. But knowing it’s been at those prices recently and then seeing the same cards at closer to £2k… uhm, how about no. It’s enough to put me off anyway. But I’m expecting Black Friday deals.

Worth noting that for a "sale" to be legal, they need to advertise it at a higher price for 21 days previous to any "sale " claim.
