Funny,. MSI has partnered up with Toho Co., Ltd to launch a Godzilla themed GeForce graphics card. The latest addition to the range of the firm is the GeForce RTX 3070 SUPRIM SE x GODZILLA.... MSI GeForce RTX 3070 SUPRIM SE x GODZILLA Edition
Over here the video card prices haven't dropped at all. Availability is considerably better with some models, but the shops are expecting people to pay the bloated 1.5-2x prices. However, 3060 Ti, for example, is totally absent. Zero stock. I wonder if Nvidia is manufacturing the hash rate limited GA104-200 chips at all. If they are, I can only assume they never leave China, apart from the reference model cards sold in the USA (if those are still available to the Americans).
3070 Ti is only marginally more expensive here than the plain 3070. For example, Asus GeForce RTX 3070 ROG Strix OC is 1149,90€ and Asus GeForce RTX 3070 Ti ROG Strix OC is 1189,90€. Both immediately available. Some other models might have up to 100€ difference. but that's it. The prices are still at the mining craze level. The cheapest 3060 is over 600 euros. Like I said, all 3060 Ti models are nonexistent, so it doesn't really matter what their prices say. The plain 3080 is also at zero stock, so their prices are irrelevant as well.
imo they're not even making 3080s anymore,or its production is very limited.3080ti gives them bigger profit margins. 3070ti is the most affordable from high-end(ish) cards here,a little over 800eur and you can have a really nice new aib version. if you think this is bad 6800 is over 1200eur.
godzilla would not approve of his name being used, even if toho approved it.. godzilla would also burn scalpers to crisp and stomp on stupid pricing
Oh good, another 3x00 series card I won't be able to find in stock anywhere, and even if I do it'll be ridiculously overpriced.
Do not expect prices to drop all that much. Scalpers showed the industry that MSRP was set way too low for what the market was willing to support.
