Yes, GPU Prices are getting better. The Graphics Card market overall has gotten better - FINALLY - and prices are likely to keep going down. Of course you can get a GPU at MSRP even as the market transitions. As we look at this month's GPU market we see that NVIDIA launched the 3080 Ti and 3070 Ti which was merely a business move and cash grab. But what is driving the market right now is a crash in crypotcurrency mining, particularly Ethereum, which had been driving GPU prices to insane levels way above MSRPs. As miners can no longer print untold sums of money from GPUs, the infinite demand is suddenly drying up while supply is finally increasing.
When does the GPU Market get to "normal"? When will graphics card prices go down to MSRP and GPUs be in stock? Cryptomining changes are helping but there is still a lot of pent up demand. And it is not clear whether new altcoins like ERGO will rise to take Ethereum's place. NVIDIA is having some success evolving mining GPUs into different product lines from gaming GPUs. And the most immediate impact may be with older generation GPUs on Ebay.
If you want to get a new GPU right now, what should you be doing? You can get a GPU, you just need these tips. Discord Channels and Streams, Used deals, and other methods will get you a graphics card, but it will take some work. We go step by step on what is going on with the GPU market, when will the GPU shortage end, when will GPU prices go down to MSRP, and how to use these tools to get a new or used GPU in 2021.
You might think you can't get a new GPU because of the horrible market. YES YOU CAN buy a new Graphics Card in 2021. Follow these video tips and you'll have a real chance to go from being frustrated to buying a new GPU in 2021. There are other alternatives to getting a new GPU for your PC build. You can of course buy a prebuilt gaming PC with the latest RTX 3000 series card and even the latest AMD Ryzen 5000 CPU. See the link above for my video on the best prebuilt gaming PCs in 2021. And there are now RTX 3000 series gaming laptops outs. While the laptop performance will not match the desktop card of the same series due to thermal and power limits, it will still provide a powerful gaming experience.
