i accounted for the fact that the high end gpus are (as always) not in as much demand as the mid range in my post. the point is that for a long time even the 3080 tis would go out of stock really fast (especially closer to the FE's price point of $1199). all i'm saying is that it hints at a general relaxing of demand (or slight increase of supply), even if it's not much. don't crucify me for it, jesus christ.
I think you are misreading here, I responded to the person that called bullshit on your claim by showing that right now there are 2 different 3080TI you can buy directly on the EVGA website, with no bots, no waiting in line.
sorry, i misunderstood then.

? You can buy one on stockx right now for less than that, and someone just got one for $1050. I've seen them locally (microcenter) for <$1200 for months (some luck required).
I won't shed any tears for AMD AiB. They were the worst price gougers.
the *50XTs were introduced so they made price adjustments, tis normal.
That's good to hear, but last I checked Asus still operates in Russia, which is a no buy for me.

So many second-hand cards flooding the market I would not be surprised if AMD and Nvidia are both going to hold back their new hardware launches, not delay them but cut them down in size to create artificial scarcity.
New hardware will be only the top end and a different product tier than second hand cards, I feel what you describe is already fully captured in the official launch schedule plans.
It’s not nearly that simple. If the 3050 is one of the more powerful cards available that is NOT being snagged by miners, it creates a demand for it that would otherwise not be there since everything else is being picked up by miners. Affecting both price and availability.
What's your definition of progress? Having your equipment becoming less valuable over time? I mean how many have cursed/moaned/etc when they bought a piece of computer equipment (or anything for that matter) and a month later it drops in price? It's a neat little window into the "supply/demand" argument of economy, what you're seeing now is the trickling off and businesses still trying to get top dollar but if the demand isn't there then price will drop.
It looks like a variation on their RTX 3070 Eagle from when the series was new. I liked mine a lot before I sold it here on [H] a few months back, for the simple reason that for my use cases I couldn't argue it was better enough than my spare GTX 1080 Ti to justify not pocketing $650 when that was still possible. It'll treat you right.
Yeah, I like the price charts too on pcpartpicker. You can actually see how quickly some prices started to dive. I think some prices like for the 3050 can go down even more, I mean $330 US instead of $250 MSRP? Whoa, give me a break.
I have no plans to upgrade from my 3080. It pushes my 100Hz gsync 3440x1440 display just fine. I'll wait a bit and see what happens. I'm simply not willing to pay the price anymore. Sell me a 4080 for $800 and we'll talk.
CPU probably is. Which is why I'm planing to replace it soonish. (Waiting for AMDs next gen chips and new socket; after a long period of stagnation it looks like a 2-3 year later CPU upgrade might be worthwhile again so I want to leave the opportunity open.)
