why did the price skyrocket on this product? null

The outgoing U.S. Administration has enacted a 25% tariff on goods coming from China, where all of these cards come from. While some manufacturers are eating most of that cost, others are passing it along to consumers. The price will drop if or when the new Administration removes the tariffs, or provides exemptions. https://www.theverge.com/2021/1/7/22217206/nvidia-amd-gpu-trump-tax-china-tariff-exemption-expire

The entire planet is currently out of stock of almost every video card ever made. There is a supply shortage of parts to build them so none of the manufacturers have the ability to make more. Hopefully things will be better by May or June 2021.
