When the Gpu's prices will go down ?

Yes, for both players selling consumer GPUs is a way to subsidize research for either high margin (Nvidia data center) or high volume (AMD semi-custom) segments, so selling GPUs basically is a nice to have now.
After all, JPR estimated 2 million GPUs sold last quarter, which is not exactly a lot...
Source? Because from what I've been looking at it shows it's a lot more than that, unless I'm looking at it wrong that is.

What can't you post links or something?

No, Intel Didn't Actually Sell More GPUs Than AMD, Firm Overcounted 60,000 GPUs
60,000 Ponte Vecchio GPUs were inadvertently added.
Was 9%, take out 60000 GPUs it's now 6% which translates in roughly 120k Intel GPUs, 180k AMD and everything else Nvidiea for a total of about 2 million.

My maths has always been pretty awful but if 60,000 results in a 2% change doesn't that mean the total was 3 million?No, Intel Didn't Actually Sell More GPUs Than AMD, Firm Overcounted 60,000 GPUs

Glad you edited it in time, anyway even 3 million would have been a pretty bad number, especially as it contains the end of year season.My maths has always been pretty awful but if 60,000 results in a 2% change doesn't that mean the total was 3 million?

Whys that...*looks around nervously*
Is it the end of year season, if as the article you linked to JPR is counting average selling price of GPUs against each manufactures declared financial results wouldn't it have a quarters lag?
Well, we're almost at the end of Q1 2023 and those were shipped items, not sold to customers.

Good news for us though if they're not selling they can lower the bloody prices to more realistic levels.
Problem is that those are shipping numbers, meaning they are keeping stock levels low.

What % of those sales have been returned for coil whine though?
Does it even matter?
The thing is what do people actually think the reduction percentage would be, if you take the 4080fe for example @ £1,199 I think you’d be lucky if they took £100 off “if” any reductions ever happen. Then you have to think to yourself was it worth boycotting the card to save £100 ?

No, boycotting it completely as well as all this generations cards would make more sense.
Would be better if retailers just refused to stock them entirely tbh.
No, the only sane move is to set a budget and stick to it.
For example, my max amount for a GPU is 600€, which gets me a RX 6800 on a very good deal day.
Then it's easy to find out if it's a good buy, just answer the following: Is it significantly better (50%+) than what I have now?
If yes, buy, if not, skip this gen. Just set how much you're ready to shell for a card and see where that brings you. Right now if you don't care about RT the smart money would say RX 6700XT.
