I don’t know when this wave of graphics card price drops will end. In the past few months, they have gradually dropped to cheaper than the recommended selling price. Recently, the RTX 30 series of high-end graphics cards has not stopped falling. According to foreign media tracking, in these 10 days alone, the RTX 3080 Ti has become 200 US dollars cheaper, which means that those who bought it in the past two weeks have paid more for it, and other RTX 30 series are no exception.
Foreign high-end RTX 30 series graphics cards continue to fall in price, and the RTX 3080 Ti is $200 cheaper in ten days
According to foreign media VideoCardz, the RTX 3090 Ti has previously dropped from US$2,000 to US$1,500. A US$500 discount seems to be quite a lot, but after 10 days, the price can be found on the Newegg website for US$1,450, which is another US$50 cheaper, about NT$1,500.
What’s even more ridiculous is that this article by VideoCardz was published more than a day ago, and I clicked on it nowthis pageLook, the price has become $1,399 again. The representative said it is $50 cheaper. It will be $50 cheaper every few days. Who can stand this…:
The same goes for the RTX 3090, and even lower. VideoCardz said that the card could be purchased for $1,250 at the time. More than a day later, Newegg lowered the price again to $1,029, which was nearly $200 cheaper:
RTX 3080 Ti Ventus is the one with the largest price drop in the past 10 days. It was $200 cheaper in just 10 days and can now be bought for $900:
The picture below is TechSpot Compiling the price trend of NVIDIA GPU graphics cards, we can see that it continues to fall, with high-end graphics cards falling most significantly, especially the RTX 3090. Compared with the high of around $3,600 in May last year, it has dropped by at least $1,600:
TechSpot also added that an RTX 3080 12GB graphics card that was originally canceled by NVIDIA can now be purchased for $740, which is really super cheap. And don’t forget, the above graphics cards are eligible for this NVIDIA game bundle event. During the event, if you purchase an RTX 3080/3090 series graphics card, you will get four game masterpieces, including: Ghostwire: Tokyo, DOOM Eternal and DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods. “DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods” has part one and part two:
In mid-July, there was news that NVIDIA planned to lower the official recommended selling price of the RTX 30 series to:
- The RTX 3090 Ti has been slashed the most, from the original price of $1,999 to $1,499, which is $500 cheaper.
- The RTX 3090 is also $200 off, with the price now at $1,299
- RTX 3080 Ti becomes $1,099
- RTX 3080 (12GB) is $799
Although NVIDIA has not made any relevant announcements so far, judging from the current market retail price, it is cheaper than the official “intentional reduction”, so whether it is lowered or not does not seem to matter.
As for Taiwan, the current price is actually much cheaper. For example, the GeForce RTX 3080 VENTUS 3X PLUS costs US$740 abroad, which is about NT$22,133. Online shopping in Taiwan only costs NT$20,990.
Therefore, people who are short of graphics cards should really consider it, as the price has dropped dramatically.
