Wild to actually see these gpus available on shelves…..but 3k for a gpu is crazy.

Still cheaper then my country * couch – cough * 3200-3400 euros..
Surprised they have any in a brick and mortar location instead of letting the bots snipe them all.
The only cards my local BB has are 4060’s and RX580s
When these where prerelease, I was so hyped. I had actually saved up over $3k not knowing what they’d be.
After I wasn’t able to get it on release, I instead got
* a just over msrp 5070 Ti
* a new psu
* 4k 240hz 32″ w/DP2.1b
* an oled Steamdeck 512gb (plus upgraded to 2 tb ssd and a 1.5tb mircosd for roms)
* then 2 additional 4 tb nvmes for the pc.
…with that same money.
I think I made the right call.
I know someone who bought a good used car for $400 less than that
MSRP at this point doesn’t even exsist

Best Buy’s thought process is “customers can’t get scalped unless we do it first”
That’s regular price.
usd or cad?
Damn ive never seen better than a 70 class card ever(even thats rare) in a bestbuy dating back to atleast 10 series.
Is that CAD?
Simply insane. No gaming GPU should ever cost more than ~1200USD$ (final, end user price, not MSRP), if that.

I can buy a decent used car for that price and enjoy real life graphics without fake frames or AI upscaling.
I’ve got a pc with 32gb ram (6000), 7800x3d, 9070xt with 3tb of storage and a good psu for 200€ less.
My family would hang me if instead of the pc, I just bought a gpu.
3k USD 4200 CND yeah not buying FOMO
It’s the same price at microcenter .
My local micro center has had like 10+ 5090s almost everyday this past month.

Getting closer to euro prices (those include 20% VAT)
I think in 2-3 months prices will be much more reasonable. Idk where all this pent-up demand came from when this is basically the 40 series but more expensive right now
My 7800XT will putt along at 4k just fine. I can wait for a bit LOL~
Runs $2899 CAD in Maple country
why do y’all think this is best buy’s doing? i’m not one to defend a corporation but like, this is the GPU “manufacturer”, not retailers’ faults lol
I don’t condone it, and I will never do it, but I get why someone would buy it, and return it, after you take the card, repackage the box with an old card, and then perfectly reseal it in shrinkwrap.
People are going crazy
Let em sit and rot folks. Send a quiet, yet loud message
That costs more than my whole build($2600), that runs 4k easily. I cant see why ANYONE would drop that kind of money.
isn’t that actually cheap compared to prices online?
That’s not bad, I mean obviously it is but compared to online prices, that’s not too bad
Why ppl think 5090 should be cheap is beyond me. It’s suppose to be the Ferrari of the GPU world…meant for the rich and super enthusiast…and the joke is some dont even have a 4k monitor to take full advantage. A luxurious GPU like the 9070XT or 5070ti is more than enough. 5080 is more than enough if u want something extra.
That’s cheap, these are $3600-4000 in Canuckistan. Plus add 13% sales tax on top of that, so your $4000 card becomes $4500 cause the government needs their cut too.
3k for a 5090 lol, not the surprising, why are you guys so focused on a GPU you don’t need
