Import ban on Nvidia to China
Everyone is buying rtx 4090 and smuggling into china cause they can make an easy $1500 profit.
in china 4090 is $3000
Me on the sidelines, playing old games and just watching and laughing at this industry.

I noticed some stores are also kinda shady before big discount holidays are around.
They will up the price a few weeks before, so the discounts then appear larger during the sale.
Yep and it seems to only keep going up. All the 4090 models now start at a minimum of 2k in the Netherlands. (Except the ASUS TUF for some reason)
This particular model is worth like 2200 euros in my country so idk what to say
Nah? Go to a price tracker like idealo and look at their historic charts. I was shopping for a 4090 this spring and this was about the middle of the normal price range in Germany, and it has been ever since. 1600 was the absolute least you could ever spend on one new and that’s the budget brands like Zotac and Gainward. Pretty sure that’s actually below the launch MSRP.
As the YouTube channel Moore’s Law is Dead pointed out, they are going to increase prices more and more until the Super lineup launches, so its price will look more desirable at the consumer’s eyes.
China and the export ban
Black Friday approaches and many prices will get artificially inflated so that they can discount the items to normal msrp
It was. Threat of US export sanctions meant NVIDIA had to allocate supply from other markets to fill the Chinese market.
The price includes VAT, its barely over MSRP of 1799€.
They must be buying in droves because Nvidia is banned from selling to China starting on the November 17th.
Black friday is coming and they need the price hike to be able to discount it to its original price on black friday
There was some article that Nvidia have been reducing manufacturing of the 4090 chipsets to reduce supply and keep pricing up. Which sounds exactly like the sort of thing Nvidia would do as profit margins mean more than anything to them.
4090 since launch had been like $2200-2400 in Sweden.
Leaks are out that NVIDIA is raising the price on 4090 because it’s their only card that people are buying. So supply is lower due to demand being high so they are stealth raising prices.
Always has been…
It was cheaper a month ago, I bought mine a month ago and was pleasantly surprised that prices didn’t immediately drop like they usually do when I buy something expensive
Was on the fence for a while. I went out and bought one as soon as I read about the impending China restrictions. I knew they were gonna jack the price up. got mine for $1699 USD, which is still outrageous, but better than it is now.
Nvidia has enough demand and the refresh is coming soon. Guess they want to make the 4080 Super or Ti (whatever it will be called) more appealing.
4090 for under 2k€ ? How nice
Bought mine for 1100 early this year on ebay lol
What are you talking about, the MSRP in Europe is 1950 euro. Looks like a rebate to me.
Moore’s law is dead has said this is mostly because Nvidia wants to make the upcoming super refresh seem like a good deal, and has cut production to meet that goal. So it isn’t just the export bans, but they sure do make a good excuse.
[One of the cheapest RTX 4090 I could find in the Netherlands.](https://azerty.nl/product/msi-geforce-rtx-4090-ventus-3x-e-24g-oc-videokaart/6217492) For €1,789.80, really expensive for “just” a MSI VENTUS 3X E 24G OC.
Unfortunately the Dutch tech website and pricewatch is currently down. Otherwise I could compare the price from this summer, when most PC parts were “cheap”.
Yep nvidia back on their bullshit artificially restricting supply to keep prices up.
They’re 2100k+ on Amazon for me 👎
Eat dog. Strix in the Baltics costs anywhere between 2300 to 2500€. What can I say except you’re welcome.
It was
Idk where you are but here that same model is around €1230
RTX 600 Ada was 5600€ and now is 7800$ or even 11200€
there is massive lead times on H100 SXM, but you should be able to get L20S
Same in France
