Nvidia Drops Prices for a Bunch of RTX 30 Cards
After more than a year of disappointments, with PC enthusiasts and gamers struggling to acquire new Nvidia or AMD products without having to pay many magnitudes above the MSRP, it looks as though the market is beginning to heal. There are already reports that graphics card supplies are getting better and prices are starting to drop, and now it looks as though team green has a few GPUs selling through retailers in the UK at reduced prices.
According to a recent report from PC Gamer, the cost of Nvidia RTX 30 cards has dropped, with places like Overclockers and Ebuyer putting stocks of them up on their website for more reasonable prices. As an example, the Inno3D RTX 3070 Ti X3 8 GB is currently on sale for £630 at the time of writing, or roughly $820. The report goes on to say that there may be more deals on the horizon, so it's worth keeping an eye on things for any potential customers in the UK who are looking for a new graphics card.
