Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 is selling overseas at absurdly high prices

The public can now view updated retail listings, including prices, of Nvidia’s new GeForce RTX 4090 AIB partner cards through the Spanish shop Coolmod (via El Chapuzas Informatico). The listings should be treated with caution because they could be stand-ins. Unfortunately, it appears that a 21% VAT (Value Added Tax) will be applied to the majority of consumer goods in Spain, raising the GeForce RTX 4090’s $1,599 MSRP to close to $2,000 on some models and over $2,000 on others.

Five models from Coolmod were on display, each with a variety of Zotac and Galax RTX 4090 graphics cards. Three new models from Zotac, including the RTX 4090 Trinity ($1,930), the Trinity OC ($1,968), and the enthusiast-built RTX 4090 AMP Extreme Airo ($2,017), grab three of the five slots.

The next two cards are both from Galax, and they are the factory overclocked KFA2 RTX 4090 SG, which costs $2,067, and the KFA2 RTX 4090 ST, which is the least expensive RTX 4090 of the group

Value Added Tax (VAT) of 21% in Spain is the cause of these absurdly high costs for non-food and non-medical consumer products. The MSRP of the RTX 4090 rises as a result from $1,599 to $1,934. Prices for Coolmod’s listings are 25% more expensive than MSRP because of these other issues.

Not only does Spain have similar problems; Germany, where the current VAT rate is 19%, is also experiencing a recurrence of this issue. German RTX 40-series costs have increased by 22%.

Nvidia’s MSRP of $1,599 for consumers in these heavily taxed environments takes on a whole new meaning and turns into a serious issue. In addition to raising the MSRP of the RTX 4090 and RTX 4080 by several hundred dollars, depending on the model, Nvidia. Furthermore, when taxes like VAT are applied to the goods, Nvidia’s price increases become astronomically worse. For instance, the price of the RTX 4090 increases by an additional $126 to $336 over MSRP as opposed to an RTX 3090 at USD 999.99 costing “only” $210 more in Spain.
