R.I.P MSI

Supply and demand, nothing wrong here. As a matter of fact i’d rather money goes to companies rather than scalpers

If manufacturer pricing increases, every pricing increases along with it. Distributors will charger more, retailers and etailers will charge more and in turn scalpers will charge more.

Brave new world where a midrange graphics card will cost about 2-3x the price of a next-gen console system.

To be fare, that GeForce Now service seems evermore attractive by the day...

And I remember paying $250 for Geforce 9800GT which even with inflation should cost less than $300 today. These "midrange" GPUs today are a joke with some commanding more than flagship level MSRPs.

Boycott!

So you're saying this whole situation was started by Nvidia so they could push their GeForce Now service. Gotcha. Nvidia is to blame. You said it!

I guess in Joseph's position, when faced with an investors meeting, didn't took him long to think of the question "Why not?" regarding this.
Even consoles are not safe, as someone reaped even the available Xbox One S/X (not the 'Series'!) from store shelves in a single day, from the local largest retailer.
Right now, by my reasoning, any technology item that can be perceived as desirable will be hoarded, even if it is a previous model, as long as it is boxed. Older, used ones will track a premium as well, just because it is what is left.
Crazy times. Really feels like typical speculation/trading frenzy that will bust...eventually. Just never thought that it would start with graphics cards. :(

Flagship MSRP seems to change all the time. The 8800GTX was a 600$ flagship (the 2080ti and the 3090 are just oddities not worth the price unless you need the vram for work) but then a couple of year later you had the 4870 which was a 300$ GPU with flagship like performance. The relationship between the x70 and the x80 also seems to change all the time. Sometimes it's so close that the x8 is a bad buy, other time the gap is noticeable.

Msi expecting nvidia 4090 launching Q2 2021??

ASUS is going to do the same, again.

So I guess I'll be with me 5600XT for a while then and grab a PS5, prices for them are getting closer to MSRP almost every week

Making my appt now.

I'm pretty sure everyone is hiking their GPU prices right now not just MSI

Retail prices are already inflated with next to zero #tock, but sure it’s fine if they Jack it up even more and expect months for another trickle of stock...sure sounds fine can’t or forget about those poor companies profits already well over intended MSRP projections

Now is definitely the time for those streaming platforms to get people to notice them. Imagine if Stadia launched now, it might have been taken seriously.

wait...didnt they price hike already? cuz their rtx cards are one of the most expensive amongst the AIBs. they gonna milk this demand on graphics cards to the last drop.

"MSI is planning to raise prices of its graphics cards..."

MSI Radeon RX 6700 XT Mech 2X = 690€ (815$)
MSI Radeon RX 6700 XT Gaming X = 760€ (900$)

MSI's CEO: Jesus Christ why the F are we selling these cards shy of double the MSRP? We're getting ripped off here! Triple the prices NOW!

Mad_foxx1983wait...didnt they price hike already? cuz their rtx cards are one of the most expensive amongst the AIBs. they gonna milk this demand on graphics cards to the last drop.

Yes, they did hike the price already. This is another increase.

ColddeckedYes, they did hike the price already. This is another increase.

Well god damn.

Demand will remain robust = Suckers are gonna buy even if we increase the prices

thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!!

used graphic card price rise to ......
