    I know this is bubble related, and it sucks, but it is pretty impressive that the pc component market stayed largely the same price for the last 10-15 years at least. A high end PC in 2010 was anywhere from $1500-2000 and a high end PC until the recent component price surges was roughly the same, which means they got cheaper after inflation over the years.

      I mean GPU prices never really came back down after the crypto boom.

      Nvidia renamed their GPUs, creating xx90 SKUs to replace the xx80 so they could justify the price increase. The xx80 is the old xx70, etc.
