Recently, the graphics card and GPU market has been receiving news of price drops and discounts, which shows that it should be quite deserted. Apart from AMD officially launches a promotion for buying a graphics card and getting free gamesIn addition, the N camp has also begun to take action, but currently only EVGA has launched a discount of US$100 on the EVGA GeFoce RTX 3090 Ti on its foreign official website, and it is discounted from the MSRP recommended selling price, which means that this card is currently sold cheaper than the original price.

GeForce RTX 3090 Ti is now sold abroad for cheaper than the original MSRP price
Now when you enter the EVGA official website, you will see the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti special price message. The original MSRP was $1,999, but now it’s $1,899 after a $100 discount. In addition, although this model EVGA FTW3 RTX 3090 Ti Black is not an overclocked version, the motherboard and cooling design are the same as FTW3 Ultra. It is equipped with 3 cooling fans, supports ARGB lighting effects, and is 30 cm in length:

In addition, it can also be noted that this is a limited-time offer, and only the official website has reduced the price, so those who are interested should take advantage of it. Currently, it is still sold at the original price online and in retail stores abroad. The same goes for Taiwan. When I checked online shopping, it was still at the original price, but this EVGA FTW3 RTX 3090 Ti Black was almost out of stock.
Having said that, even with a price reduction of US$100, the EVGA FTW3 RTX 3090 Ti Black still costs US$1,899, which is still too expensive for most players. Moreover, mid-to-high-end graphics cards can achieve excellent image quality and performance when playing modern games, so everyone will choose mid-to-high-end graphics cards one or two levels below.
NVIDIA only launched the RTX 3090 Ti graphics card in March this year, and the price was reduced just over 2 months ago. It seems that it is really not selling well. Many players are waiting for the graphics card to drop back to the original price, or even lower, before they consider buying it.
The price of GeForce RTX 3090 Ti has not been increased since its launch. It has always been $2,000.According to the latest Newegg GPU sales statistics, another RTX 3080 Ti has now been sold back to its original price:

There were also rumors a few days ago that the next-generation RTX 40 series would be launched in First published in Q3 2022, approximately between July and August, there are only about 2 months left, which may also be one of the reasons that affects NVIDIA players’ willingness to buy new graphics cards.
Q3 early

It is obvious that the graphics card market has slowly returned to normal, and players no longer need to spend a lot of money to grab graphics cards. Recently, if the graphics card you want to buy is still more expensive than the original price, if you are not in a hurry, it is recommended to wait, because there is no accident that the price will continue to fall.
Ethereum’s proof-of-stake “merger” is currently undergoing final testing,It is expected to be officially launched in August, which will change the future of Ethereum mining. It is speculated that after the actual launch, GPU graphics cards will have another wave of decline (more second-hand graphics cards may also appear on the market):
