NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Ban Attracts Gamers To Team Red's Offering, AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX Sees Price Hike Across Retail Segment In China

With the US ban on the GeForce RTX 4090, an "artificial" shortage has been created in Chinese markets, as prices have soared to new levels. This has resulted in gamers and professionals seeking other solutions and AMD GPUs are the first that come to mind. But since the demand for RTX 4090 was already high, retailers are now taking advantage of the situation and increasing the prices of the next best graphics card on the market, the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT.For a quick background recap, the US has officially implemented steps to hinder the growth of AI in China, by cutting off the supply of one of the necessary components, GPUs. Despite all the political fiasco, NVIDIA's flagship Ada GPU has somehow been dragged into the field as the GPU exceeds 600 GB/s memory bandwidth barrier, or 4800 TOPS.The ban on the GeForce RTX 4090 has also created a "domino" effect amongst the other SKUs within the Ada Lovelace lineup since the GeForce RTX 4080 and the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti have also witnessed an increase in pricing.
