1600 USD ($2135 CAD where I live). Remember how crypto crash was supposed to make card prices go down?

    Gaming isn't the only gpu application, esp. as gpu compute workloads are on the rise. Also, if the top end is jacked up that means the low end is also jacked up, so even if you don't want a top end card you are still forced to pay inflated prices.

      Yeah, gamers on these cards are dumb. This is a workstation card for doing AI development and raytraced rendering.

          Yeah, but workstation cards are ridiculously overpriced. We use consumer grade cards in ours for running AutoCAD and ArcGIS

          These are definitely marketed towards gamer tho, it's just that they do have use in workstations that aren't constantly rendering and just need a GPU for data processing or rendering large drawings with anti aliasing.
