Yeah, “huge discount” from pandemic overpriced MSRPs. In most cases you are still overpaying considering what were the prices pre-pandemic.

Chipmakers want to keep inflated prices and now crying that no one is spending so much anymore. Sell 4080 for $699 and there will be no inventory buildup issues.

Yup. This. I'd love a new GPU, but wages are low and price increases on everything this year were absolutely sinister.

Lower the price, and I could be convinced, though. I use GPU's for work, and for play, so it's usually something I stay on top of.
