Did You Know: “GPU Purses” Is a Thing (GT 730 Purse Costs $1024)
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Ever wondered what would happen if tech met high fashion? Enter GPU Purses, a website that’s turning heads with its luxury product, the GT 730 purse with fan, priced at a whopping $1,024. If you’re scratching your head trying to figure out why anyone would spend that much on a purse featuring a relic of a graphics card from 2014, you’re not alone. But hey, fashion has always been about making statements, right?

GPU Purses

The GT 730 Purse: Specs or Style?

The GT 730 purse is a clear plastic handbag with gold trimmings, featuring a rather vintage Nvidia GT 730 GPU encased in resin. For added flair (or confusion), the purse comes with a Gigabyte-branded fan glued to the exterior, presumably to cool off your sense of buyer’s remorse. When it launched in 2014, the GT 730 was priced between $70 to $80. Today, you can find it for about $50 brand new, or even as low as $20 for used models. Quite the mark-up, huh?

Here’s how the seller describes it:

“For the GPU rich. This purse has an external cooling fan that spins and a GT 730 Nvidia board. Fits a phone.” They also emphasize the purse’s exclusivity with, “Limited edition. I am making like 10 more in the next few weeks,” and add that you can choose between a long or short chain. So yes, it’s technically functional—if by “functional,” you mean it holds your phone.

The “Fastest Fashion” on the Market?

Interestingly, GPU Purses has embraced a quirky tech-meets-luxury approach. Their tagline? “The Fastest Fashion”. In case the GT 730 purse isn’t quite high-end enough for you, the site also lists a Nvidia H100 Purse for the eye-popping price of $65,536. While there are no pictures of the H100 purse, the seller claims it features a GPT-4 training GPU embedded within, making it the ultimate (albeit over-the-top) geek-chic accessory.

In an amusing twist, the prices of the purses are set as powers of two, with the GT 730 purse priced at 2^10 ($1,024), and the H100 purse at 2^16 ($65,536). A creative pricing strategy, sure, but perhaps 2^8 ($512) would have been a bit more reasonable for most buyers. Then again, reasonable doesn’t really fit in with the “luxury” aesthetic they’re going for.

A Niche Market for GPU Fashion?

While the GT 730 purse may be the first of its kind in the realm of luxury fashion, the concept of turning computer parts into accessories isn’t entirely new. Back in the 1990s, PC enthusiasts were repurposing CPU keychains, and even today, Etsy is full of CPU jewelry priced between $10 and $20. However, searches for GPU jewelry don’t yield much, meaning the GT 730 purse might be carving out a unique niche for itself in the tech-fashion crossover world.

Is It Worth It?

Let’s be real: spending $1,024 on a purse featuring a $50 graphics card may be a stretch even for the most hardcore Nvidia fans. The craftsmanship, from what we can see, doesn’t exactly scream “luxury,” and the amateur-looking product page doesn’t help build much confidence in the seller. But hey, if you’ve got the cash to spare and want to own one of the most bizarre (and possibly conversation-starting) accessories ever created, this could be your moment.

Would we recommend it? Not really. But if you’re feeling adventurous, the GT 730 purse is ready and waiting for someone bold enough to carry it.
