Every time I decide to upgrade my damn computer something like this happens, come on i7-5820K, just a little longer, the prices will drop any time now…
Yeah lol last time I needed a new GPU because mine died, it was pretty much the peak of Ethereum mining. I was doing lots of freelance motion graphics work at the time and needed something beefy but all these guys were buying every high spec card that came out, in bulk, to mine ETH.
Really hoping my 3090 doesn’t suddenly burst into flames in the next few months… fingers crossed.

Planning to upgrade my I7-4790K for a while now… First the GPU shortage and now this…

Didnt AMD just announce the 10% price hike?
Edit:
Dunno why the downvote.
Anyway, they didnt announce it in public (and allegedly only internally): https://www.techpowerup.com/343197/amd-prepares-10-gpu-price-hike-amid-memory-shortage

I got 2x32 GB for 200 € in April. Seems okay for something I am going to use for 10 years again. It was a i7 4790K to Ryzen 9 7900X transition.
