Video card supply is about to improve
Large mining operations stall buying
It is starting to look like there will be more GPUs in the marketplace as Bitcoin and Etherum are losing some of its momentum, and large mining operations are holding their investment in GPUs until dedicated mining cards ASICs are out..
VentureBeat has noticed that the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 video card is selling on Amazon right now for $700. Other retailers even have it listed at the original MSRP of $600.
Original MSRP ain't bad. Since AMD makes more effective mining cards for the money spent, I expect AMD GPU prices to fall slightly slower than Nvidia prices.
