Well that will dash any hopes of an affordable GPU.
Is America Great
Depression, yet?It’s not just good, it’s great!
The Switch2 was supposed to be $399 but now we’ll pay a $50 Trump Tax on every one.
That’s assuming importers and middle men don’t add on additional fees and I doubt they’re going to be nice enough and only pass on the tariff percentage.
I remember the COVID-era supply line disruptions and the greed they brought. It never went away.
Greedflation! And economists finally agreed a couple years ago that the data proves it’s a real thing that happened/is happening.
Wait until they see the game cards price now. Those are made in Japan.
Considering they’re charging 80 bucks for mario kart world for a physical copy, well that’s not going to be great either.
24% of $399 is more like $95
The tariffs would be on the wholesale price for retailers/distributors, not MSRP, unless a consumer is buying directly from a foreign retailer.
I thought that was only the rumored price. I wouldn’t be surprised if there is a price revision before release up to $500, unless they had already priced tarrifs in.
Pretty decent news for us non-Americans tbh.
It’d be a real shame if fewer GPUs are sold in the US and more supply hits shelves across the rest of the world.
Maybe.
I think however given the GPU makers as of late would probably use this as a cover to screw over everyone just that little bit extra.
The United States will be the new Brazil.
Can’t wait for maga gamers to whine about this lol
They’ll be too busy complaining about the next “woke” game and how Pal World! More than just pals makes them feel things.
“I’ll gladly pay more if it means no more woke in muh vidya.”
Yay guess I get to do an Intel Arc build
Fuck me. I knew this was going to happen but still. Guess I’m not upgrading my 2060 Super for a while
Well was going to build a pc but mane not so much anymore
