Nvidia and AMD GPUs are returning to shelves and prices are finally falling
For nearly two years, netting a PS5, Xbox Series X, or AMD Radeon and Nvidia RTX graphics cards without paying a fortune has been a matter of luck (or a lot of skill).

Sweeney entered the spotlight at the start of 2021 when it emerged that Musk offered him $5,000 to take down the jet-tracking Twitter account. Musk told him it was a "security risk" and he didn't want to be "shot by a nutcase," according to Protocol, which first reported the story.
