GPU PRICES: SOME BIG DROPS AT OcUK!!!
I am afraid not, due to the GPU shortage most board partners are opting to not build the crazy high-end cards and focusing more on the normal air cooled cards. Your best bet is to monitor the EVGA site closely and keep your fingers crossed.
At present were making 15-17% on both the watercooled Gigabyte 1080Ti, so that gives you an idea of what the price could be if we made 8% but as we have less than 5 in stock and are selling 2-5pc every day right now we simply do not have supply to drop prices, if anything they will go up further in price to try and reduce sales.
If demand stays as it is now, by that I mean mining demand has reduced, but if not completely gone then by mid-end May supplies may improve. Problem is if that happens the moment we then do reduce prices the sales explode again and the stock is gone again, so though prices will get better, they will never be epic again but supply will remain tight no doubt until end of Summer and no one really knows what the future holds. Mining could be dead in 3 months, or it could explode again, its a complete unknown.
sweet. hopefully it will be an asus rog Ti
thanks for the heads up
Zero chance of that ever happening sorry.
Not a blower but it is a small one.
Hoping to get a dual cooler type card in mid £700's again, we are generally close to £100 cheaper than most competitors on 1080Ti and 1080 when we do these deals, but with such limited supplies at the moment it is quite hard to get large volumes.
NVIDIA are helping us because were the only retailer that has during these times tried to support gamers and pro-actively tried to reduce pricing in the market and cause some competitors to follow us and NVIDIA have noticed this and are trying to push board partners to send more stock to us rather than other regions who pay more for said stock.
April shall be a very difficult month, hoping May gets easier.

Why only partial?
Then they should have replaced with the super jetstream 1080 which is not EOL and cost within $10 of that card anyway. That is what OcUK would have done if Palit said regular Jetstream was not available, we'd just swap for the closest performing card in your favour, which would be super jetstream at no cost to yourself.
Might be a long shot but any change for a VEGA 56 close to 400£? Really can't live without freesync anymore and I realy want to upgrade my 390 for VR
I am afraid not, at £529.99 we make under 5%, were literally just trying to force UK market prices lower and in return force board partners to also lower their prices, its not great for us as were making around 5% on graphics cards at the moment, but we made some nice margin in the past and we have the rest of our business to fall back on.
So right now our cost is above £500 landed on a VEGA 56, so to hit £400, well you do the sums, I don't mind loosing a couple of quid on some cards to do deals, but we can't swallow over £100 per card loss, we'd just send the stock back for credit before we do that.
We are pushing board partners very hard to reduce prices, the fact were now at MSRP or below on a lot of NVIDIA cards, just pushing board partners very hard now to push 1070 and 1070Ti lower as those are still a little inflated.
I can't see us seeing much under MSRP or prices of Black Friday, simply as the cost are now much higher due to the memory prices going up, I have even asked AMD to re-activate their $100 sell out APA's they gave us on VEGA cards as that would knock a good chunk of cash of those, but so far they have declined to do so.
Its quite hard, because were now so aggressive on price, we've also seen some miners ordering again, so the miners are also still watching and for some I guess they are still making profits or making a gamble.
Well these were very obvious calling in and wanting 100+ RX580, which we allowed as we've got plenty of RX 580 on hand now and our prices are the cheapest out there, hence why for us those are selling very well indeed.
1080Ti, 1070Ti, 1070 were still doing no mining deals on, strictly 1 per customer as stock is still very tight on those.
That makes sense, thanks for taking the time to write the update. I will wait for a future deal. Still bitting myself over not pulling the trigger during black friday.
I did warn everyone on those deals, that they would be the last ever VEGA deals and you'd never see them so cheap again. We were selling them so fast at £500, we smashed them to £400 just because we could and wanted to give everyone a chance to grab an epic bargain, as we could have sold them all at £500
We know they are miners, if they try to return stock, we shall do as we are legally allowed and hit them with the maximum restocking fee, simple fact is we've had no miners attempt to return cards to us who have purchased in volume. No idea what they are mining or why for OcUK at least 580 is still so damn popular.
That is clearly a price error by them, just look at the prices of the regular nitro edition 8G is £50 more and the 4G is same price. Its an error, so go take advantage as that price is below current cost or they have found a load of old stock in their warehouse at older pricing.
Our best offers are on the Powercolor Devil cards.
Just apply the used car market philosophy. Not that you will get it. Basically once its off the forecourt its halved in value!
I dont think anyone would want a revved out ex-miner card, not to game on anyway. The fans wont be great and the owner could have abused it somewhat regarding high temperatures etc. However it is what it is and if your after better prices - as the last quarter has been horrific for a buyer - then use the advantage and try to wait out some better pricing offers.
Correct, but when its limited edition cars, supercars, or cars in shortage then that philosophy also goes out the window, it becomes more a case of what people are willing to pay.
Cars like BMW M2 hardly depreciate much at all and thats a mass production car but holds value well.
Mustang when it came out, same as demand outweighed supply.
The nicer end of the car market can act different some hold value, some appreciate (Porsche) and yes some can half in value very quickly.
Perfect example on OcUK:
Zotac 1080Ti Mini, in ample supply, under £700
Asus 1080Ti Strix OC, hardly any supply, over £1000
Supply and demand always impacts pricing.
Limited editions or special editions always carry a premium.
Just the way of life, pretty much same on everything.
I want a Porsche GT3, they are 110k new, but Porsche won't sell me one until I spend around a million with them, well I don't want their other cars. Plus I refuse to pay around 125k-150k for one a couple of years old, I shall wait for them to become older and then buy when they are around 100k or do as I did and actually buy a faster car for less money which is holding value nicely is its a very limited edition car, SVR.
