The 16GB model is officially going for $305. It officially launched at $120. Is the Raspberry Pi foundation really paying $185 more for that single 16GB chip of DDR4 memory?

Some time ago, while I was paying, I overheard a supervisor advise a cashier that her next customer was a big spender, and had spent over 5 or 10K for that current month. And it occurred to me that, for them to know that, they would have had to have tracked him from entrance to check-out. I was just wondering if anyone is a little bothered by this idea? That Costco management can and will track you based on spending habits, if not for other reasons too.

Was wondering what you guys think about this GPU. At odds with either keeping my current ASUS 4060 8GB, or selling it and upgrading. Originally placed an order on the 5070 for $550 (came with Borderlands too), but honestly I don't really consider myself a "gaming enthusiast" anymore -- more casual if anything -- and looking at power usage, I just think it doesn't make sense to "upgrade" to a card that uses almost 2x the power.

I think I like the price/performance/power ratio on the 4060 Ti. $80 more for the Ti upgrade, and $50 for the additional 8GB of memory. It just seems like fair pricing.

It's not about the $120 difference, it's about the power usage difference. Anybody care about low-
