just wanted to join in and say GPU prices will stay high is my guess
an yes i complained months ago on twitter about it on twitter < Kyle YES our good friend and HIOST here on [H] told me MSRP is a lie . his recent blog goes into some details
BUT IN OCTOBER 2021 i was lucky...
i registered on the EVGA website in Feb 2021 wanted an NVIDIA RTX 3060 XC gaming or a 3060 ti

also that vid card = weak ..get at least a GTX 1050
i agree i only paid $239 for my 6 gig GTX 1060 before the mining craze hit hard ..(around march 2017) ..the day i bought it tho ,they did not have a single GTX 1070 or 1080 in stock , at my local micro center .and they had the signs up ...... limit one GPU per customer
i do hope Nvidia...
actually the 980 ti had more pixel shader units
2816xPS 5.0
2816xVS 5.0
and 384 bit ram interface
2x1750MHz
384bit
GDDR-5
i'm sure by the time it ships the GTX 1070's will drop a bit more too in price .. and i'll bet the RTX 2060 sells for at least a $300 MSRP

ofg ya want a $2100 PC buy the parts ,,have microcenter build it for you ..then wipe it and install your stuff your way ..or better yet build it yourself for less money .
hmm just thought of something.. nVIDIA MAY BE GOING THE WAY OF M S + WIN 10 .....GPU'S AS A SERVICE ?????
