When I bought that card this year I payed significantly less than you’re suggesting. That’s still a lot of money but it’s not more than many gamers where willing to pay for their gpus way, way before ramageddon. Of course you can’t run open weights on a potato but you also don’t need a $4000 gpu to do so.
As for the rest of your comment? What? 🤷

How much did you pay? I spent $70 on a “new” Aisurix amd radeon 580 2048 SP graphics card earlier this year, but it was a sidegrade more than an upgrade to the Nvidia GTX 980 i had before (which had declining Linux support). Modern graphics cards seem to be very expensive compared to how much it used to cost to be a few years behind the cutting edge.
