VRAM prices rise to hike the cost of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 and AMD Radeon RX 6000 series; laptops will also be affected

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 and AMD Radeon RX 6000 series has already received price hikes following its release, and not just from scalpers reselling the likes of the RTX 3070 for well above MSRP. Now, a report claims that scarcity of GDDR6 and GDDR6X VRAM will push the price of AMD and NVIDIA GPUs up even further.

Now we just need China to invade Taiwan and all the conceivable things that could turn a modern GPU into something more valuable than a car would have happened.

It's funny how fast I went from sad that my queue position for a 3080 still hasn't popped up after all this time to just being glad I have a 2070 and am making dents in my backlog that will last me 2 lifetimes.
