When the Gpu's prices will go down ?

Yup, that's wheh I got mine

Good to see prices slightly stabilising and coming down now, all it took is a massive energy crisis.

Nah, all it took was less mining profitability.

Come October, and the second of the large energy price rises, you will still see RTX4000 series cards with 600W+ of power draw flying off the shelves. It'll be another scalpers paradise for a while.
 
3080ti for sale in Sweden today for 14000sek

That's about 1100 quid.?

Asus tuf.

It's pretty basic but cheapest I ever seen here

Mining profits are back up

Have to also remember possibility of merge happening and increasing power costs

Also was reading even if the merge was delayed the difficulty bomb will happen which will reduce profits

Mining already moving away from ETH; however the next decision point for both the merge and bomb is next month, and the talk (from devs) is a delay in both

ETH is still the most profitable and it's difficulty is increasing no one seems to be moving away if that's what you meant, all that hash rate will have to move to another which will just massively increase the difficulty on that coin

Guess we will see what happens
 
On FB today someone seems to have had enough of mining for now. Wants £800 for 3080s, RX6800 £600 & RTX3070 £600. Be interesting to see if sells quickly.

Has FB got a tracking thing like the bay has? Would be cool to see across these selling spaces what cards exchange hands.

No idea as barely use FB just got account for my Quest headset. Usually, I save lising to see if price drops. I am on a sim racing forum & member put 2080ti up for sale for £630 now £600 but been sat there since 18th March no one interested that price.
 
Even the AMD cards on here are sitting around now. Nvidia still seem to be keeping the Nvidia tax. £300+ for a new 1660 super is laughable. I can understand the 3050 holding its price but not a 2 gen old card.
 
They i.e Nvidia and AMD, Have seen how much people are willing to spend on their silicon, I said it when it first launched but the 2080 Ti was a price test to see if people would latch on... and they did, In droves, Prices will keep on going up and up and up because people are willing to pay it.

Well, if they are paying attention, maybe they should take note of what "people" are willing to pay when crypto mining isn't wildly profitable. I think they see their inventory sitting on shelves now, even as prices continue to fall.
 
Is that why Nvidia reduced pricing on Ampere compared to Turing, Pascal users never upgraded to Turing because it was a crap upgrade and too expensive and forced Nvidia to reduce pricing. Covid and mining killed off any decent pricing. But now GPU mining is on the down and covid less of an issue, I expect prices to keep dropping and next gen cards to come in at similar pricing to Ampere/RDNA2 MSRPs.
 
Also AMD seem to be competitive on the high end now and add in Intel for mid/low range you think that should help being competitive with pricing

Sort of on your wavelength but where I differ is the Pascal affect. I think as so many people took ages to get their hands on a 30 series card from the reasons you gave, most people wont be arsed putting in the same effort. Also as the prices they paid will be a hefty outlay, tech like DLSS and low res displays may mean they wont have to entertain lovelace (even if its a good leap). With power demand up on the high end, unless people can offload the 30 series to recoup a lot of the way to a 40 series, we will again see this lull when it comes to hype and lovelace.

Enthusiast niche sites like this you will get interest again, but I feel the regular punter that paid £700 on a 3060Ti will not be in a hurry to replace it in six months time.
 
Speaking of Intel, i wonder what they're thinking about release prices now. Their source parts were i'm guessing bought at peakish prices, and current end user pricing is dropping.
