I'm getting my information from basic Google searches. Granted it's not the actual cost of the final product, but it's enough to tell me how the industry has fared over the past 15 or so years.sorry , trying to justify overpricing the cards wont help at all . Electronics are the only thing that goes down in price over time ...
we used to buy Simple Calculator with few transistors for $2000 , now you get them for $1
which means also that transistors manufacturing cost went down 2000 FOLDS !
and you dont have any information about their base cost... it is a kept secret.

If you have any sources of your own saying how cramming 28 billion transistors into the size of something slightly larger than a postage stamp should cost the same if not less as shoving 115 million transistors in the same size, I'm all ears.
