Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said that older Nvidia GPUs are rising in price like 'good wine' due to surging demand from AI data centers. Models such as the H100, H200, A100, and L40S remain in high demand years after their initial release.
AI demand drives up prices for older Nvidia GPUs
Supply shortages are driving up prices across the GPU market, including consumer GPUs. Gamers are now competing with AI companies for GPU availability, which has pushed prices higher even for used graphics cards.
Huang commented that GPU consumption is going through the roof, and even GPUs sold four or five years ago are now rising in price faster than good wine. He said that buying an Nvidia GPU has defied expectations and is like investing in art.
The trend highlights how AI demand is reshaping the GPU market, creating sustained value for older hardware. Nvidia has not confirmed how long the shortages will last or whether production will increase to meet demand.
