OK, so like, the bestest newest Nvidia card that tops the performance chart is EVGA's RTX 2080 Ti FTW3:

https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=11G-P4-2487-KR

It's $1,350. That's a lot but I guess a hardcore gamer would like to pay that. OK.

But like, oh no! You can't order it! There's an "Auto Notify" button but I read that apparently you have to react to the notify within minutes or seconds because the card will just sell out that fast. Oh no!

So like, the only way to buy it is wait for someone to put it on eBay and sell it for $2,000. So now you have to pay $2,000.

No one's gonna pay that!

But wait!
