GPU price increases

[slunge]

This is part of the problem when you think £650 for a graphics card is underpriced.

I maybe in a minority, but I think £650 is overpriced, personally.

Suppose we have Nvidia to thank for this.

Not sure your in the minority, I have similar sentiments and £380 was most I have ever paid for a gfx card back in 2017.. that said if people continue to buy them at these prices, and they sell out why would they sell them for less

£650 is fair price for 3070 which is at par with 2080ti @ £1k+.

Yes, because the 2080Ti was set at a reasonable price of £1000 plus.

All part of Nvidia's marketing shenanigans, and it's worked if you think £650 is OK for a 3070.

Yeah but that uses the logic that the 2080 Ti was actually a good price to begin with.

U trollin bruh?

As someone who shelled out a grand for the 2080ti, at no point did I ever think I was getting value or even paying a fair price. And that was two years ago before the ps5 and xboxseriesboxxonexseriesone

3070's are available on the Nvidia site if your quick.

Yep, OverChargers behaviour hasn’t gone unnoticed. Check out trustpilot reviews for some scary reading.

Wow!!! Those people leaving negative reviews need to get a grip!!!! It's pathetic!!!!!

Stop the moaning people!!!!!!

There are some very good posts in this thread.

I've walked away from upgrading my GPU this year.
Will look at it again next year when stock levels and prices normalise.
That could take 3 to 6 months, but it is what it is.

Scary? It's just a bunch of babies crying because they can't have their toys!

550 is the max id pay for a 3070.
Its a direct replacement for the 550ish pounds 2070 range.
Id rather wait 6 months than pay these extortianate prices!

Beggars belief that people now think that the xx70 cards should cost £550

 

[The Old School Gamer]

Sounds reasonable, considering that is roughly around what second hand 2080Ti's go for.

Stupids gonna stupid!!!

The shenanigans of the past couple of months have put me off having another gaming PC for a long, long time.

As has been said already. Once people stop paying silly money for a GPU the prices will drop
