Instead of the original $12,400
At the moment, the market for video cards for ordinary users is as comfortable as possible, since we see the recommended prices from the first day and there is no shortage. However, another segment of the GPU market is now experiencing a different boom. The price of Nvidia A800 accelerators has reportedly increased by 20% in just two weeks.
Nvidia A800 in China now costs around $15,000
The reason for this is very simple: the fear that the next US sanctions will completely block the supply of such accelerators to China, because the A800 was created specifically for the Chinese market.
The A800 ended up costing about $12,400 two weeks ago, and now it costs about $15,000. Given the current hype around AI and the tension between the US and China, it is possible that prices will rise even more.
