Rumor: Nvidia to Introduce Price Cuts to High-End RTX Graphics Cards
Modern gaming tech, or even just tech in general, can be pretty expensive, so everyone loves it when things go on sale. Recently, this year's Amazon Prime Day saw lots of technology deals.

Whether it's worth the reduced price for a 3090 Ti when the Lovelace and RDNA 3 range is coming is down to individual preferences.
Recently, Nvidia was said to be launching the RTX 40-series this September. However, it's been speculated that,
