RTX Super cards prices

Go to solution Solved by JuztBe,

Price wont rise in 2-3 months (most likely). Navi will be out by that point too, so might shake things up (unlikely). 

Tl;dr - don't buy now. Reference models are usually higher priced than comparable vendor ones.

I will be building new pc in about 2-3 months. My questions are:

-Are the reference cards lower or higher price than others (or: should I buy a reference model right now and put it on shelf waiting for whole build)

-Will 2060 price drop?

-Will 2070 price drop? (yes I know it's discontinued, but I would obv want it over 2060Super)

At those prices, neither Super or Navi are good. The 2070 Super is interesting, and the price is decent. If you're a high-end buyer it's the only option worth it at the moment, and even then the price still isn't great. The 2060 Super shouldn't be considered though, at $399 it's fairly poor.

 

If AMD lower the RX 5700 Non-XT to $300, or maybe $325 (They probably won't but we can only hope) then it's worth buying. The 5700 is the best of a bad bunch at it's current $375.

 

That leaves you with only one option. Vega 56. At around $300 for models like the sapphire pulse it's the only card that makes any sense for the midrange at the moment. That just shows how bad the situation is right now. Availability is going to come crashing down soon though, so I'd get it while you can.

Well, price of 2070 Super is too high, I'm gonna do around 1k$ build. AMD isn't really a option since I need that CUDA cores. 2060 is pretty good for a price rn given my circumstances.
