A Hong Kong-based reseller is now selling modified Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti graphics cards with 22GB of VRAM on eBay for $529, according to recent wire material. The modification involves replacing the original 11GB memory modules with eight 2GB modules, effectively doubling the GPU's VRAM capacity. This upgrade makes the once $999 flagship GPU more affordable for budget users seeking mid-range 4K gaming or heavy AI workloads.
While the modded GPUs come from various manufacturers such as Gigabyte, MSI, Asus, and Leadtek, some experts suggest considering more recent mid-range GPUs like the 16GB RTX 5060 Ti, which currently retails for around $570. This alternative offers slightly better performance, more advanced ray tracing cores, and frame generation support, making it potentially more worthwhile for serious gaming.
The reseller advises buyers to make their decision soon, as the RAM crisis is expected to worsen in the coming months, leading to further price increases.
