If you want to buy a 4090 buy one, but stop asking people to justify a dodgy decision.
The new cards are being announced in a few weeks, their launch a month or two after, I'm sure they will be expensive but I'd still wait and see rather than diving in head first on a 4090 this late into its lifespan.
You sure you haven't already bought the thing and slapped a waterblock on it?
Good lord, you even topped it off with a deranged "OMG TRUMP!" rant, pretty sure the USA was applying tariffs to China during Bidens reign left and right so I'm half convinced you're trolling at this point.
I'm lucky then that you're not a moderator on this forum cos I would be banned...
Now I haven't,I've got RX 6900XT at this moment.
Electronics
Smartphones, tablets and laptops are among the array of electronics that would see price increases as a result of tariffs, experts said. Video cameras, headphones and video game consoles would also be impacted.
“Electronics are basically ubiquitous,” Raymond Robertson, a professor of trade and public policy at Texas A&M University, told ABC News. “I don’t know how this wouldn’t be incredibly disruptive.”
Prices of laptops and tablets could rise as much as 46%, while smartphone prices could jump 26%, according to a study published last month by the
Consumer Technology Association, a trade group that represents tech firms.
Many of those goods are imported from China, which would face the steepest tariffs under Trump’s proposal, Handfield said. Since Trump plans to also impose tariffs on all imported goods, manufacturers would not be able to circumvent the tariffs by shifting production to other countries, he added.
Imports account for roughly 90% of video and audio electronic equipment sold to U.S. consumers, the
U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis found in 2017. Meanwhile, 88% of electronic computers and 78% of small electric appliances are imported, the BEA said.
“The prices of electronics would definitely go up,” Handfield said.
