The GPU package, so they were charging AIBs $400 per die on the high-end and $200 on the low. Looks like we'll never see a sub- $250 midrange card again if starting price for a die is $200.
Unless they go back to Glofo and ask for some 14/12nm wafers for low end gpu chips, maybe get a better price on older nm die?

Considering the actual prices are double the MSRP, these increases are negligible. I mean is your wallet going to notice the difference if the card is already $1000 or more...
They could increase it by 100 bucks and literally nothing would change.
People that care and need every bit of saving aren't in the position to buy the cards anyway. On the other hand, scalpers and miners don't care, they'll goble it at whatever the price is.

My wallet isn't noticing these graphics cards generations at all lately. I've never saved so much money, its fantastic.

And a whole bunch of people will probably end up discovering new hobbies.
