Era of $200 dGPUs is over and it’s not even purely due to ML tech impacting component costs. Inflation and overall cost of packaging mean that it’s not viable to have $200 dGPU (outside of the absolute low end that’s barely comparable to mediocre iGPU performance).
I wouldn’t mind if they costed $200 USD. But at $339 USD?
