During my search I saw my old Titan RTX listed for $4,500. I thought the GPU insanity had started to decline, I was clearly wrong … the shortage problem seems to be even worse now. Cheers, Rob Absolutely! It's insane here in the UK. I am (trying to) build a PC for my son for his birthday. I cannot find a single new Nvidia card above the --60 range (eg. 1060, 2060, etc). Most are --50s. I have a 1080 that I paid £240 for, about 3 years ago. I found one second hand one for £550 !! I won't buy used - not because I'm bothered that it's a used card - but I simply refuse to give these profiteers stupid amounts of money for old GPUs. Before I had my 1080, I had a GTX 770, that I paid £120 for, used. I found a 770 used today.... £330 !! I'll settle for a 1060 for his PC, and upgrade when Nvidia and AMD finally restore normality in their supply chains.

It looks like it could shorten the loading times. Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).
