&gt;flagships used to be much cheaper

I could say that about literally everything.

iPhone 6s (2015) MSRP was $649
iPhone 14 (2022) MSRP is $799
A 23% increase.

GTX 980 (2015) MSRP was $549
RTX 4080 (2022) MSRP is $1,199
A 118% increase. 

These aren't normal price increases due to inflation or increased cost of materials and labor. This is greed on Nvidia's part. They saw what people were paying scalpers and wanted in on the action.
