GPU Prices Might Go Up by A LOT!
Well, folks, we got some possible bad news here. It looks like GPU prices might go up! I mean it's hard to say that with a straight face given the price of the RTX 4000 and RX 7000 series of GPUs, but this also applies to the last couple of generations of gpu’s that are still selling.
That’s because back in the trump era, GPUs were subject to tariffs. So there were extra import duties for and I quote : "printed circuit assemblies, constituting unfinished logic boards,". And GPU’s were part of it. What this meant was a 25% tax. Pretty bad.
In late 2021, After a lot of pushback from companies like Nvidia, HP, Zotac, and others, the Biden administration gave a Tariff exemption to GPUs and other things that fell into a specific category. Great! The problem... Well, those tariff exemptions dont last forever. And this specific one is going to expire on December 31’rst of 2022.
With the insane prices of new tech, that’s not good. Honestly, I'm a little bit glad that we got the new stuff this year because the last-gen prices have gone WAY down. At least for AMD’s lineup. If you weren't able to get a GPU during black Friday, you can maybe wait until Boxing day or another holiday sale. But if those tariffs do expire without renewal, it wont take long before the stock in your country run out and you’re hit with a massive price hike.
