So here I am, delaying my next PC upgrade for another year or two, because it is pointless when I have to keep using my GTX 1050 TI in it.

i heard that

building my son his first pc for his 12th birthday, in august

only thing is the graphics card............nothing in stock.......and marked up really high if in stock



i'm at a loss with this situation

Fishmonger:
I was going to build a new system in 2021. Thing is, a video card alone that is somewhat decent costs more than my entire budget. In 2022, the same thing is true. Video cards will most likely cost 3-5x more than they used to for years to come, because the makers of these cards have decided that it is a good thing to earn themselves stupid without even trying to create better products. Prices are slightly down from 6 months ago, but unless crypto totally crashes, I doubt we'll see "list price" cards return to "in stock" status in 2022

Right now you won't find anything in stock at retailers. Most of the available product goes through scalpers via ebay.
