Yeah it's insane. I paid about $400 for my current GTX 970 over 3 years ago, and today I wouldn't be able to get a less-powerful 1060 for that price.

I've heard chatters about crypto currency miners driving up the prices but I think even those have to be large scale to make a dent, we're not talking about individual miners. Plus Nvidia is behaving like an even bigger dunghole of late.
