A new survey conducted by Liquid Web with 1,000 players revealed what much of the Brazilian public already knew. At a time when GPUS are increasingly expensive, Most enthusiasts are preferring to postpone the upgrade of their PCs for a year or two here.
The study reveals that the disposition of the purchase of new components decreases greatly because it is impossible to find many of them at the recommended prices. To make the situation even more difficult, the general increase in cost of living has greatly impacted how much money is left to invest in new pieces.
- According to Liquidweb, 57% of participants left purchases parts due to supply chain problems;
- 40% only plan to upgrade within two years;
- NVIDIA RTX 4070TI and NVIDIA RTX 3070 were pointed out as the most cost-effective options among the players consulted.
The Liquid Web study also shows that There is no prospects for improving the situation, especially among the US public. The trade war between the United States and China should result in a widespread increase in hardware cost, which should further discourage upgrades.
In early May, Nvidia announced a global adjustment of up to 15% in the prices of its GPUS, a direct consequence of the situation. Nor does not help the fact that the company, as well as competitors like AMD and Intel, have increasingly directed their business to the field of artificial intelligence.
As GPUs are quite competent in making the types of calculations required by companies such as OpenAi, Companies in the area have brought more income than consumers interested in improving their game experiences. Given that the demand for the segment should not decrease in the coming years, it seems that betting on upgrades will remain an ungrateful task for a considerable time.
