I've been waiting for the promised glut of cheap RTXes but somehow it hasn't materialized. Maybe the miners can't easily liquidate?
RTX 3080 Ti is €650 on ebay buy it now on a $1200 MSRP, how much of a discount are you expecting?
I recall the litecoin crash dropping the R9 390 to $80 back in the day (5ish years ago). Wouldn't mind an $80 5700xt these days.
Searching on eBay for "RTX 3080" and limiting it to sold listings, I see a lot having sold in the last few days for ~$500. Based on how GPU MSRPs have been going, seems like a decent price to me. I was never sure what to expect post-GPU-crypto, were you expecting cheaper?
You can get deals. I got 2 3090s for $560 each about 3 weeks ago. (They are working fine so far)
I don't know if you consider it cheap, but Costco has plenty of computers available with 3060s and i7-12700s.
Thankfully Nvidia has picked up crypto’s slack with a pretty not-sane MSRP for the 4090 :)
Checking... Checking... Nope, the prices are still insane.
