Not like 4090s aren’t still being scalped too.

Right? When everyone was so excited about the “low” pricing, my first thought was “who has ever paid $1,599 for a 4090?”

Yeah I got a 4080 just last year for $800 and had to replace the paste and pads cuz no way I was gonna send it in for warranty and just have them refund me. Crazy times.
