GPU Prices Fall After Nvidia Announcement, Ethereum Merge

GPU prices are trending downward, especially when short-term sales are on the horizon. Just one week after Ethereum successfully completed The Merge, and in the midst of the launch announcement of the Nvidia RTX 40 series, graphics cards no longer hold their former value. If you’re looking for his one of the best graphics cards, here are the current prices for the latest and previous generation models.

Start with the latest generation GPUs. All of these are still available at retail stores. It also includes a handful of previous-generation Nvidia Turing cards, mostly from the GTX 16 series, but also from the RTX 2060. Previous pricing data is from just before the Ethereum merge.

Overall retail prices have fallen an average of 3.5% since last week, but this masks some of the big changes. The RTX 3090 Ti remained stable, but the RTX 3090 dropped 11% as did his RTX 3060 Ti. Even better, AMD’s RX 6750 XT, RX 6700 XT and RX 6700 10GB all showed double-digit percentage drops.

The price might seem good at first glance considering you’re looking somewhere between RTX 3060 Ti and RTX 3070 levels of performance, but you get an extra 12GB of VRAM.of Sapphire RX 6600 Pulse (opens in new tab) Get it for just $229.99.is the same price as EVGA RTX 2060 6GB (opens in new tab)you don’t get DLSS support, but you do get more VRAM and typically a 20% performance boost for traditional rasterized games.

However, not all GPUs have gotten cheaper in the past week. The RX 6950 XT was previously sold, but is now discontinued with a $40 higher price tag. The RX 6500 XT and RX 6400 have also gone up in price, which is strange because anyone thinking that the RX 6600 will perform more than twice as much as him should not buy it. Several other GPUs have seen flat prices as well, which isn’t too surprising considering we’ve only seen them in the past week.
