Yeah but the fact that people are still whining about this like the top end GPUs are flour or eggs or milk is just pathetic at this point. It's a premium luxury product and it was always going to cost more than anything else. PC gaming is just wildly popular right now and there is also a massive resource scarcity that they can use as a secondary excuse. They don't need a secondary excuse though. Welcome to the wonderful world of unchecked capitalism. We're in the later stages now about to enter the death throes. And stop using the term future-proof it's just silly in computers. I just built two PCs using gpus from 5 generations ago and they still rock it.

The problem is it pushes up the mid and low range as well. Everything goes up, not just the high end. And then as more people go second hand like yourself, it pushes up second as well.
