GPU prices starting to fall

[Team_RGB]

I know there's a bunch of variables at play here, but it seems as tho GPU prices are starting (still a ways to go) to come back down to earth. So you can save that dough and buy tickets to LTX2018. Thoughts? Cc: @LinusTech, @AlexTheGreatish, @GabenJr

um... my thoughts:

"k"

I doubt it, probably just some sale(s) or something. The prices won't fall anytime soon, sadly.

[Computernaut]

When will it fall (if ever)?

[Noyu]

Yeahh that's kind of why I posted here -- a kind of peer review. That's my guess too. Hope not tho Fingers crossed. Can this bell be un-rung?

Random claim? check

No proof? check

No reasoning? check.

 

 

cool

Is there a graph or anything to show me that prices are falling?

I can buy a Thread-ripper for $100

 

this is the case based purely on what i just said.

I just noticed that 1080's are what 1070's cost last month. 1070's are what 1060's cost. Just wondering if anyone may be tracking it.

Show me a Vega 56 for £390, and I'll believe you.

Yeah you rip threads, alright. $100 to go away.

Alright, lets actually look at some graphs.  Here is the price history of a random selection of 1060s and 1070s.  Although it does seem like the prices are a touch lower than the start of February overall (I think, I didn't actually average anything), it seems like there was a huge spike then.  The general trend still seems to be up though and I wouldn't buy any of these cards for the asking price.  TBH right now if I was building a computer I'd get a used 970 or 980 off Ebay and hold until 10th gen prices eventually fall, tho I have no clue when that could be.

I think hardware companies are missing opportunities by not making more mining specialized GPU's.
