-GD-X★ 7,761 Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Damn, I’m considering building a PC work station at home to compliment my mobile one. These GPU prices are making it tempting. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Remij 4,690 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Nvidia and AMD Partners are ready to offer more brutal price cuts in September due to not clearing inventory as quickly as expected. They've apparently got billions of $$$ in inventory they need to clear out yet. With the mass amount of inventory they have, plus all the used cards crypto miners are flooding the used market with, they're finding them hard to sell, even at reduced prices. Get fucked Nvidia and AMD https://wccftech.com/amd-nvidia-partners-ready-to-offer-more-brutal-price-cuts-on-gpus-in-september/ GamersNexus has also heard something similar from his sources. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Damn, I may just get a home workstation after all! I just need a strong CPU, 32g (considering 64) of ram and a 3070ti (or higher). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AMD is coming out with their new AM5 platform and Zen 4 very soon, so prices on their existing CPUs should drop as well. You can already get a 5950x (16cores 32threads) for $550. Who knows what their prices will drop to after the new stuff comes out. Sept/Oct could be a great time to buy, so keep an eye out. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, definitely! I need to get familiar with windows again, so I’d like to price things out in the forthcoming months. I’ll also have a better idea of my workflow by October, as well.

Also better ray tracing. I would only be getting one for cinema 4D (a 3D program I use). I wouldn’t mind checking out some maxed out games, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,647 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 According to the nerds at Resetera there are going to be some heavy discounts on GPUS later this year. Might be a good time if the deals are good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For GD it could be the perfect time to build a workstation and have something he could play the odd game on PC that he's wanted to try over the years. Also any Xbox games that he buys or GP games will be cross-buy/play so he can try them out on both for no additional cost 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm 4K now and I need more fps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm 4K now and I need more fps. Hard to say. Depends on what Nvidia and AMD decide to do. They may artificially limit stock in the beginning to keep stock low and people paying the higher prices. That will also force some people to just buy a cheaper 30 series card instead, clearing that inventory... So who knows. I think regardless of all that, it will be much better than the 30 series was.

Soon Sony will do the same so that will be great. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
