In 2017, I bought a 1TB 960 Evo for 466€. Now, in 2023 the 1TB 970 Evo Plus is 43€.

It's incredible how much the prices have fallen and that's how it should be. Sure, I bought the 960 close to launch but still the difference is staggering.

The 960 Evo still chugs along albeit it's a new one because a few months after I bought it, I had to RMA it. I guess that's what happens when you are an early adopter. I lost a few hours of work when the original 960 Evo decided to stop working but it also taught me to be more paranoia with backups.

Yeah, but Canadian dollars?

Well yeah, but the exchange rate isn't that bad. Our prices are just astronomical.

Direct conversion for $599 USD to Canadian dollars works out to about $800. NVIDIA has just decided that they can get more than that out of us with regional pricing
