Graphics Cards Prices Returning to Normal!

[Evanos38]

Happy days for any people looking to upgrade their PC or encourage friends to build!

Prices are really falling and stocks seem to be returning.

GTX 1070's and 1080's are closest to retail MSRP as they have been for a long time and even spotted some new below that!

Thanks for the heads up, really tempted to get a 1080 Ti. but I think I'll hold off until the next generation comes along.

How much of a difference have the prices been? Like how much was. 1080 at due to mining vs what it's dropping to now? I also read a while back you could contact the sellers and let them know your buying for a gaming PC and not mining and they'd lower the price for you... But idk

Edit: ahh okay just looked for myself and they say 1080s and such were going for 1000$ but I honestly thought that was normal xD and I started PC building in 2013... But says here you could find them for around 650$ which is nice... I think I paid 400 something for my 970 back then

Yeah alot of those going for 1000 were second hand too.. 460 pounds on amazon right now for a 1080 which is 620 dollars. Things are looking good.

I think I read about GTX 1180 Ti coming out, hold your horses on getting a 1080 Ti.

Awesome bro. Best of luck with the new build. Need any help let me know.

One change id personally recommend is swapping out the i5 for an i7

:facepalm: I was impatient as usual and paid $1200 for my 1080TI.. Sad part is, my new $1400 Asus laptop with a 1070 shreds my desktop at playing tarkov. I should sell my old gtx 980 quickly!
