Lmfao 😂 yeah... I remember buying an excellent GTX 660 Ti INCLUDING Borderlands 2 for 240 €. Heck, just before Corona hit, the still very capable Vega 56 was as low as 220 € on eBay. So, wake me up when the prosumer cards hit 300€ and below.
Wake me up when RTX 4000 appears because this will be earlier than all models of RTX 3080 10 GB reaching a price that would be fair considering the time passed since launch, i.e, currently, on 2022-06-15, 80 - 85% MSRP of each model.
Some Nvidia and AMD graphics cards can now be purchased at below MSRP on Newegg. The average prices for many used cards has gone down on eBay as well, according to research done by Tom's Hardware.
