"Are they more expensive there Australia?"
Literally everything is more expensive here except the free tan you get for going outside for 3 seconds

[EliteArsenal]

It's expensive because Linus can't stop buying the whole stock.

[MasterGeekMX]

"tariffs make tech expensive"

Me, as a mexican: _first time?_

[Gabriel]

It's literally impossible for a normal person to have a GPU in Brazil right now. You could buy an used car for the price of a GPU.

[NimrodAUS]

Bang on. I can’t believe how expensive GPU’s here in Australia :( 3080 starting at $1799

[damonandrews]

Yes GPUs are insanely expensive and those are prawns. Love, Australia

[Verzox]

tariff exceptions in USA run out of time and the graphic cards in Europe got more expensive. go figure.

"MSRP's going up in value by anywhere from $50 to a few houndres dollars"

Me, a Hungarian (where the '$500' 3070 goes for more than $1000): Wait, you guys are getting grapichs cards?

[PurpleRupees]

I can't believe GPU's are selling for the price of Out of Stock these days. That's way too high

[xplodingmojo]

Techquicky: “Why are GPU’s so expensive?”

Me: “Why are GPU’s out of stock allready?”

[teku]

US: it's so fricking expensive it went up by 50-100$
Eu: First time huh?
Australia: First time huh?


my eyes only see in *out of stock* (except for shitty 3070 cards for 10k+)

in my country after VAT, import tax, store added value and deliver you end up with rtx3080 for 1600€ ($1932) when price on actual nvidia site is $699
Yes, you heard that right 2, 7X overpay
price so high not even scalpers want to touch them here

[SRC]

How many yesrs will it take to get the performance of a RTX 3090 in a Smartphone?

[MrNicvdb]

Aussie here: a 3080 is $1800 and a 3090 is $2700 from a retail outlet, so yeah it's expensive here. 🙃

[aleehk]

Don’t blame the players, it’s the game: cryptomining

[typerightseesight]

I can see him writing this.. "water my money tree" thats GENIUS! print!

[Manu-usmv]

Okay, tariffs on goods that have been subsidized is a fair measure to ease competition. But if no one else is manufacturing GPUs, then there isn't any competition to make this fair to?

[Jezelf]

I mean, with what I've seen, they're more expensive here in the EU

[leeson]

That Australia joke at the end worked on so many levels. Riley, that's one of the best Canadian imitations of an Aussie accent too.

[JshWar]

U guys know nothing about expensive things. Love, Brazil 🇧🇷
