An Explanation About Graphics Card Prices From NVIDIA

Going down in history as the world’s number one graphics card manufacturer NVIDIAbrand new graphics cards that have recently enchanted all gamers and professionals GeForce RTX 4080 and GeForce RTX 4090 with GeForce RTX 6000had introduced. These graphics cards have been talked about a lot for their price as well as their features. The latest explanations are for these prices. we have to get used to it reveals.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huangheld a question and answer event with the participation of members of the press. Answering questions about prices at this event, Huang made a debut that would leave the enthusiasm of consumers in the lurch. “Moore’s Law is dead. Even a wafer is much more expensive today. The idea that the chip price will drop is a thing of the past…using the expressions NVIDIA CEO, while the costs have increased so much prices won’t go down it has expressed. So what was this Moore’s Law that the NVIDIA CEO was thinking of?

What is Moore’s Law?

Co-founder of semiconductor giant Intel Gordon Moore, wrote an article in 1965 and made an important prediction for the technology world with this article. This prediction was called Moore’s Law, and it said: In about 2 years, the sophistication of a chip doubles, and the cost either stays the same or goes down. So today you can buy a chip for 10 lira. twice as strong, about 2 years later, you could buy it again for 10 liras. NVIDIA CEO says that this era is over, that Moore’s Law no longer valid is thinking.

So why did this happen? Why have graphics card prices reached the level they’ve never been before?

To be frank, the CEO of NVIDIA is not very it’s not unfair we can say. Because the chip crisis with the COVID-19 pandemic has caused global distress. Moreover, there was also the cryptocurrency mining dimension. So much so that Ethereum was mined through GPUs, which increased the demand for graphics cards. Video cards released on the market, so to speak stays in the trapwhich, combined with the chip crisis, resulted in unprecedented prices.

But as of the beginning of 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic is over. Ethereum mining also reached saturation point and demand fell relatively. As such, a downward trend in prices began to be experienced. In the past weeks, there has been a update released and mining officially ended. It was believed that all these would lower prices.
