When the Gpu's prices will go down ?

Is there no appetite for gpus anymore as everyone (pascal owners) upgraded during ampere?

OCUK had it for £728 and I’m surprised they didn’t sell out. I wonder whether £699 would tempt?

i doubt it, the mainstream gamer has had enough of price gouging from amd and nvidia, on top of the rest of the chain taking their extra cut, if you can justify 1k plus for a gpu,go for it, the rest of us not desperate will stand back with hand in pockets waiting for normality to return to the market, 2099 i figure :cry:

Yep, 7900XT is now £799.99, ready for the 'sale' price back to £749.99.... Though I'm sure theres meant to be some type of law regarding this, eg the product has be have been at the increased price for a certain amount of time before being lowered to claim 'sale' price.

I recently have been regularly checking the Overclockers website for a possible bargain 4080 in the B-grade clearance section and am constantly seeing cards such as 3090's or 6900's for example listed there for silly £1000+ prices. Can anyone explain why they are listed there for such high prices (should add before I get into trouble that this is not a dig at Overclockers and that their pricing for gpu's is general is very competitive)?

Issue is they are always based on the list price of when they first got them, not current price. I once saw a benq monitor in the b section for £600 when they were currently only £550 new on ocuk. I sent a webnote pointing out the discrepancy and the price got dropped to £350 so i bought it.

This has been a great week for 4090s.

Msi Ventus at £1300, Strix 4090 £1649.

I got a TUF 4090 for £1500.

4090 FE not selling out.

Prices are coming down comfortably now.

Still too much. 4090 needs to drop to 3 figures and then it will start to get interesting.

4090 £999
4080 £749
4070 Ti £499
4070 £349
4060 Ti £249
4060 £189

It won't, not until AMD can be competitive.

There's very little cut for the retailer and board partner, so Nvidia would have to lower their margins significantly.

Also it would be a really bad precedent to set for price to fall that much in less than a year. No one would have faith the 50xx prices would stick.

Hardware Unboxed said they think the high pricing is because of AI demand, if that's true then prices will stay high for a while yet.

I think it is more simply greed and Nvidia wanting to please their shareholders. They have boxed themselves in, with increasing pricing with each generation, and are now unable to do any real price drops.
 
Is £2K too optimistic for next gen? :cry:

Apparently AMD consumer cards are getting the ROCm royal treatment and one can hipify existing CUDA code.

I wonder if AMD will give us 32GB consumer cards. :D
