NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card went on sale on May 27, 2016, with a $599 list price.
How we worked it out: Launch price: $599 (the Founders Edition was $699). We put the $599 into NVIDIA stock at its closing price on May 27, 2016 ($1.12, adjusted for later stock splits and dividends) and value those shares at today's price. Launch prices are US list prices before tax.
