Can a graphics card really be so good that it is worth 3000 euros?

Could NVIDIA's next high-end graphics card cost well 3000 euros? The surcharges of scalders are not yet calculated.

Some users hope to buy an RTX 4000 next year. Because current graphics cards are either so expensive that nobody wants to buy or hardly available.

A Youtuber now says that the prices for the next generation could increase significantly again. The speech is here after all from 3000 euros. But are 3000 euros worthwhile for a graphics card? Finally, one gets a complete gaming PC for the money

Does the next high-end graphics card from nvidia 3000 euro costs?

Where the prices are? The Youtuber Graphically Challenged regularly deals with graphics cards, performance and function in his channel. He has therefore gained experience with the topic.

Now the Youtuber has assessed how much the next generation could cost graphics cards. The prices are therefore no leaks, but are based on observations of the current situation.

The Tweet lists the following prices. In Germany, the prices would be further taxes on it:

RTX 4090 - $ 2,999 US dollars RTX 4080 Ti - $ 1,999 US dollars RTX 4080 - 1.199 US dollars RTX 4070 - 799 US dollars RTX 4060 TI - $ 499 US dollars RTX 4060 - 399 US dollars RTX 4050 TI - $ 329 US dollars RTX 4050 - 279 US dollars

How likely are such prizes? If you look at the current situation, then the prices do not come so outweight: After all, you currently pay for a RTX 3090 currently at least 1800 euros or more. Thus, the price is well above the non-binding price recommendation.

The Youtuber and others suspect that the prices for the next generation could increase significantly. After all, the current situation shows that gamers and miners are quite willing to spend 2000 euros or more for a graphics card.

NVIDIA could now justify significantly increasing prices with the current situation. In addition, if you do not increase the price yourself, greedy scalper would drive prices to the height. The Youtuber writes himself in the Tweet Miner and Gamer choosing with their purse , which is so much like: When people are ready to pay a lot of money, then the prices are rising.

What are reactions? Under the Tweet there are already some who shake the head at the prices mentioned. Especially from the current situation, in which graphics cards are sold for thousands of euros on eBay, many users do not believe that you really get the graphics cards for such prices.

In addition, a special version of the RTX 3090 already costs more than 4000 euros and is considered one of the most expensive versions of the high-end card. This version rather addressed enthusiasts instead of gamers:

An investment of 3000 euros should scare many gamers

How much power does the RTX 4090 offer? Some leaks had already suggested that the RTX 4090 should provide double performance of RTX 3090, but this is only speculation.

Nevertheless, it is questionable whether the double price is really worthwhile for twice the performance. 3000 euros are a lot of money for many people.

Above all, there is hardly any games at the current time, which can really exploit the full performance of a GeForce RTX 3090. The double performance of an RTX 4090 is currently hardly a gamer really need. Many would probably be more likely to grab the 3000 generation.

For whom would be worthwhile? For the few gamers, the investment would really be worthwhile. For 3000 euros, you currently get a fully equipped gaming PC - or used cars, who already has a few years on the hump.

Already there are enough reasons why gamers prefer to resort to the RTX 3080 instead of RTX 3090. If you get the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti near the RRP, the TI version would even be a better option than the normal RTX 3080.

Graphics card prices will not improve even in the near future

What is currently the prizes? For a current RTX 3090, you currently pay at least 1800 euros and more, decreasing prices are currently not in sight. And that the prices will sink in permanently, the few users believe currently.

Meanwhile, even NVIDIA itself has declared that prices continue to remain so high. You have to either patient or have a great luck when buying a graphics card. Or you will continue on the hardware that you are currently at home.

What do you think about the prices? Would you really take a deep deep into the pocket for a video card of the next generation or keep your 3000 euros for a graphics card for too much of the good?
