LLM GPU Price Index, Week of 2026-09-28: $ per GB of VRAM
In the week-of-2026-09-28 edition of the SpecPicks LLM GPU Price Index, among the 6 of 19 tracked cards with a quotable Amazon price, the cheapest new VRAM per GB was the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB: $519 for 16 GB, or $32.44 per GB (read 2026-09-28).
What moved since the week of 2026-09-21: RTX 3060 12GB up 15.2% to $460 (from $399); RTX 3060 Ti up 9.1% to $360 (from $330); RTX 3090 down 2.8% to $1,730 (from $1,780).
6 of 19 cards had a quotable new price. The other 13 are blank because fewer than 2 of their Amazon listings were both checked in the last 24 hours and priced between 0.5× and 1.6× launch MSRP; a listing marked up past that is not quoted as the card’s price.

*New prices are snapshots of Amazon listings read on 2026-09-28 and are not live quotes: price may vary. Used eBay medians are not available yet: no tracked card had the 8 listings in 7 days a median needs, so the used columns are left out. Method: how the index is built.
