NVIDIA RTX 3080 GPU Prices Fall Of A Cliff Overnight In Australia, Global Prices Should Follow
Most of the AMD RX 6000 series GPUs have a couple at Newegg very close to (or at) MSRP. The RX 6800 XTs remain overpriced. Get an RX 6900 XT at nearly MSRP. Or wait for the 7000 series.
I'm not as familiar with Newegg Nvidia GPU prices. But, Nvidia prices still seem high (by my standards) at Newegg. Makes sense as they are more popular with gamers and gamers are willing to pay more for them.
As previously mentioned several times, Nvidia has long advertised that "we're the highest FPS" (price is secondary) -- and, so far, they are. AMD has long said they won't fight the maximum FPS battle -- they're more interested in providing the best Overall-Performance/Price ratio.
I bought another R5 5600G CPU/GPU to update an HTPC (replaces R7 1800X CPU and RX550 GPU). Cost $178 (free shipping) from Amazon. Most AMD 5000 series CPUs prices are well below MSRP now.
