Buy a graphics card – How much money will you spend on a GPU in 2022?

If you want to buy a graphics card or PS5, you have to be very lucky right now. MeinMMO wants to know from you how much you would spend on a graphics card.

This is what it’s about: Games are getting more beautiful. For example, the game Valhalla Rising attracts attention with its beautiful graphics. But great graphics also have their price, because you need powerful hardware if you want to set all graphics settings to the maximum.

And 2021 has not only brought new, high-performance graphics cards, but also technical innovations in a number of games. Thanks to Nvidia’s DLSS, you get significantly more FPS in the MMORPG ESO than before.

How much are you willing to spend if you want to buy a graphics card?

What is the current situation? At the current time (11.01.2022) you will not get a graphics card at the manufacturer’s recommended retail price (RRP).

• For a GeForce RTX 3080 you currently pay at least 1399 euros. The RRP is 729 euros.
• At AMD you pay at least 1299 euros for an RX 6800. The RRP is 579 euros.

With both AMD and Nvidia, you pay a lot on the average on the RRP. Scalpers earn a lot of money selling graphics cards, but you don’t pay much less at many online retailers either. There is also another reason why you as a gamer have little chance of buying a graphics card.

Your opinion is asked: How much are you willing to pay for a new graphics card? Are you influenced by the current situation in your purchase decision or do you have a fixed pain threshold that you will not go over? Or have you said goodbye to your PC building hobby and only buy ready-made PCs? Tell us in the comments!
