Lol a 4070 in Canada is $1200.
I mean, in europe they are more expensive, 4070RTX was about 700€ (770$). Different currencies and different taxes. And greed.
Nope. FE was 650€ at launch +shipping
Yeah, but Canadian dollars?
Direct conversion for $599 USD to Canadian dollars works out to about $800. NVIDIA has just decided that they can get more than that out of us with regional pricing
Well yeah, but the exchange rate isn't that bad. Our prices are just astronomical.
