Shall keep pushing but I don't think they will fall much more, just other brands will catch up as a lot of Asus product has sold out over night as sales have dramatically boosted with the price moves from Asus.

I understand there are external pricing pressures sometimes, but you would think these companies would have a sweet spot identified for their products where their sales volume increases with lower prices and profits hit a maximum. Maybe it's just higher than I am aware?

They have ideas but they also need a lot of pushing at least now they are responding and OcUK is been very speedy at actioning.

To be fair you've probably got the best sales data on what sells at what prices. Glad they are listening, better to sell 1000 GPU's at a discount than 10 at full price ;)
 
The AIBs know that many of their buyers at the higher prices were either full or part-time miners and scalpers. They want to slowly reduce the price for the gamers that held out until they have to get the price as low as they can afford. Now the USA import tariff has ended (at 20%), plus Nvidia recently gave the AIBs about a 10% reduction. So they can realistically reduce prices by a bit under 30% in the USA (for Nvidia cards), without losing a large margin, and see how many gamers buy in at those prices before lowering prices further. Lets face it many people buy other types of products when they see sale reductions of 25 to 30%

Nice to see these prices coming down. Only one who is gonna be upset is Intel who missed a very big opportunity having not launched earlier this year.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future performance ;) You take a chance whatever. If you buy now you may find you've overpaid for much lower performance but at least you'll have something. I'll take the chance I may not get something but I will still have cash in the bank to spend later and not a very depreciated asset. You pay your money and take your choice...
