All prices in NZD. Highest priced air cooled card, the Asus ROG Astral, is $6299 and the Asus ROG AIO is $6599.

Even after stripping out the 15% sales tax the lowest priced card is still USD 2655.

Better release a bunch of articles about how Chinese AI is scary so we can keep video card prices high because our bosses invested our retirement fund into NVIDEA

Meh; I'm happy with my 4090. Got lucky enough to score one on a discount on launch day. It's going to last me well into the 2030s.

Prices like this and a crappy 5080 are going to make my 4090 go up in price

I heard that MicroCenter had less than 300 5090's for the entirety of the USA. Nvidia has taken the nintendo approach to controlling how much hardware they release.
