It's intentional market manipulation. They have a ton of raw silicone for the chips on hard. They just can't be bothered to put them into video cards to sell because they want to artificially keep the price high

Same issue with Single Family Homes in the US.

We have plenty of land to build them on, but speculators have injected insane liquidity into properties and are therefore opposing any form of affordable single family homes because it would destroy the inflationary "value" of the things they bought.
