GPU price history

A few patterns are worth watching once you have some history to read:

• New-generation launches push last-gen prices down. When a newer card ships and supply ramps, demand shifts off the previous flagship and its rate drifts lower. The clearest buying signal in this market is an older card sliding after a newer one arrives.
• Capacity crunches spike spot prices. Interruptible and spot rates track spare capacity, so when demand surges the cheap tiers are the first to jump and the last to settle. A sudden spike in the spot line usually means the market is tight, not that the card got more valuable.
• On-demand rates trend slowly, spot rates twitch. The on-demand line tells you the long-run direction; the spot line tells you how tight this week is. Read them together.

Every GPU page on this site carries its own chart, so the history sits right next to the live price you are about to pay. Use it to tell a genuine low from noise, and to decide whether a card worth renting is on a slope worth waiting out.
