Turkey · TR · TRY · Growing, mid pricing
Hardware pricing in Turkey
Used 3090s ~TRY 20,000-25,000. 4090s ~TRY 50,000-65,000. Mac Studios available.
Our note on this market reads: Growing, mid pricing. A healthy second-hand supply makes the used 24GB card the default starting point here, because it is the cheapest way to reach the capacity most local-LLM tooling assumes.
| GPU | Used 2026 | New 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| RTX 3090 (24GB) | ~TRY 22,400 | Rare new |
| RTX 4090 (24GB) | ~TRY 51,200 | ~TRY 64,000 |
| Mac Studio M4 Max (36GB) | — | ~TRY 76,800 |
Converted from US dollar reference prices at approximate mid-2026 rates (TRY 32 to the dollar), then cross-checked against the local note above. Import duty, VAT and shipping are not included and are the largest source of error in several markets. Mac Studios typically have a single uniform global price.
