Nvidia says falling GPU prices are ‘a story of the past’
- Thread starter nsilvias
- Start date
Hopefully people buying Nvidia GPUs becomes a story of the past too. They deserve to eat their stock.
Not buying a GPU at those prices. I don't care about your arguments. Figure it out. Or don't, and lose money. Don't care

Then so is buying products from Nvidia if they're going to break budgets. Who elected Jensen as my finance minister? Pfft. If they want to price me out of PC gaming, cool.
[Edit: I'm also not going to be shifty and concede I am an AMD boy. This is partially why. Let's see if AMD goes HAM on me and leaves me with a 'Dear Broke John' letter lol]
Like... I know Nvidia is the standard and I realize life isn't so peachy in a market like this with all the tumult of the last few years, but none of it matters if their prices are flat-out unbearable. It doesn't matter. Blood from a stone. If Nvidia (or AMD) can't make products fitting my budget in the future, that's ultimately fine.

I made the switch to PC gaming in 2004, with these bullshit prices, console gaming is looking damn good right now...
I mean we all know that even with these prices they're going to sell out. Nvidia knows that a sucker is born every minute of every day.
This big-headed move has got to be why EVGA stopped working with them. I assume these prices are making it harder for other companies to have any sort of profit margin. Time for the big guy to take a trip in the dirt.
There's no way these prices are so high only because of the cost of production. I don't believe it
This reeks of "you can still play the xbox 360" Mr. Don Mattrick.

GeForce GPUs only make up some of their revenue. They're going to keep raising prices until they literally can't move stock. They're going to find the highest number they possibly can, they have server space and AI stuff they can cover their ass with.
Okay, Nvidia. No GPU upgrade for me then at these insane prices for the next decade or so.
And I'm fine with it thanks to the huge selection of games releasing these days that do not require the newest overpriced hardware :)
Also, I think the demand part of the market knows better than you, mr ceo.

Of course they were.
A take on Reddit said that he's trying to convince people to buy out the 3000 series stock now via fear mongering so the prices don't drop further. I can 100% see that as being the case.
Because the competition hasn't filled the gap yet with better performance or equivalent performance for a significantly cheaper price. We'll see with RDNA3.
I hope EVGA does a good deal with AMD or Intel (or both) and starts selling cards that perform great for like 1/4th of the price.
Nvidia is being ridiculous, that mining money wasn't going to last forever and I'm not going to spend 3 PS5s on a video card that's 25% faster. Also those 2 4080s are NOT the same card, not even close. It's ridiculous that they're trying to get away with that.

That's where I'm at with it. $500 for a Series X or a PS5 just becomes a better and better value the more arrogant Nvidia gets with their pricing models.
A lot of this just seems like hubris because they regret not pricing the 3000 series cards higher amid the crypto rush and now they want to price their cards higher based on that. Except now the miners have largely left and they're trying to squeeze PC gamers - who have alternatives.
It's just terrible for PC gamers as a whole.
I think a lot of dumb ass scalpers will buy them out at first, but realise they are competing with cheap flooded 3000 series cards.
They're not doing that now though. Without crypto the market has soundly rejected the 3090 series at its MSRP, which is why they have to be dumped now at a loss.
The only way the 4090 sells out without crypto is if they make so few of them to begin with.
EVGA is out of GPU's for a while, if not permanently. As for AMD, past history does not give one hope that they will severely undercut Nvidia, even if their market share position would demand it.
My understanding was that they just don't want to do GPUs anymore, the margins are too low.
Anyway, I sure hope AMD shakes things up a bit, but I doubt it. I expect slightly wore cards than Nvidia without their big new features, and only slightly lower prices which will probably translate to ~1000€ for an entry level card.
God I really hope AMD pulls through. The effect they had on Intel was amazing and we need that same push to nvidia
