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?
Well yeah, but the exchange rate isn't that bad. Our prices are just astronomical.
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
