Access to technological products is also very expensive in Pakistan, where the country’s economy is in trouble. When the costs are added in addition to the taxes up to 36 percent, the prices peak. For example, the price of the MSI GeForce RTX 3090 Ventus 3x graphics card goes up to $ 1800.
Strict taxation on video cards in Pakistan
As such, the players in the country were trying to obtain a more suitable video card from abroad, either through an acquaintance or by purchasing them. The Pakistani government could not ignore this any longer and prepared a new pricing table for graphics cards brought from abroad.

Pakistani authorities have prepared a chart based on graphic memory. 4GB graphics cards are priced at $65, while 24GB graphics cards are priced at $540. So regardless of the model, a graphics card with high graphics memory is seen as expensive. In other words, Radeon RX 6800XT 16GB graphics card is more valuable than GeForce RTX 3080 10GB graphics card. Or it can be the other way around in different situations.
Customs officials will impose a 36 percent tax after converting the price of graphics cards to Pakistani rupees. Again, the officials were asked to report the model features in full. Player communities state that the new regulation will direct people to buy low memory cards and the performance will naturally be low.
