AMD issues official statement regarding Radeon RX Vega 64 pricing
AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 will be restocked for 499 USD ‘over the next few weeks’
At IO-Tech, we can find the official statement from AMD:
Radeon RX Vega 64 demand continues to exceed expectations. AMD is working closely with its partners to address this demand. Our initial launch quantities included standalone Radeon RX Vega 64 at SEP of $499, Radeon RX Vega 64 Black Packs at SEP of $599, and Radeon RX Vega 64 Aqua Packs at SEP of $699. We are working with our partners to restock all SKUs of Radeon RX Vega 64 including the standalone cards and Gamer Packs over the next few weeks, and you should expect quantities of Vega to start arriving in the coming days...
Some rumors lately were that the $499 price was NOT the real price -- it would rise, they said.
At least for now, $499 is the "real price" for the Reference version of the card. Of course, sellers can charge whatever they can get -- and folks can buy or take a pass if they are too expensive -- that's capitalism.
