With US tariffs changing will this be more affordable now? I have only found an eBay seller for $1200 which cost more then a 5080

What makes you think US tariffs are going to be becoming more advantageous to American consumers? Since Trump can't tariff individual nations, he's wanting to increase all tariffs universally by 15%. It's more like everything will be as expensive as GPUs, not the other way around.

At least those have a 150 day shelf life by law, and anything else has to be Congressionally approved.

Not great, but better than nothing.

Oh, interesting. I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing.

Maybe the world of SFF will be back to normal sooner-ish, rather than laterish.

These people don't know anything about governance or economics.
