Yikes!
According to our source, a 3GB GDDR7 chip currently costs between $60 and $70. A standard 2GB GDDR7 chip reportedly costs around $20. This means the 3GB version can cost about three times as much despite providing 50% more capacity.
So, taking the lower $60 a chip estimation, a card like the RTX 5070 that (in theory) costs $550 and has 6 memory chips would go up $240 and be around $790?
Yeah, I don't see that thing flying off the shelves.
