NVIDIA has recently launched a global campaign to promote the availability of RTX 30 series graphics cards with multiple retailers and manufacturers informing customers of increased shipments. The launch of this campaign also coincides with the 5th consecutive month of price drops for NVIDIA GPU prices with the average price now at 119% of MSRP according to the latest report from 3D Center. The stores participating in the campaign appear to have most cards as now available or restocking with some cards receiving minor price cuts.

NVIDIA said:
GeForce RTX 30 Series graphics cards are now available! Get the ultimate play with immersive ray tracing, a huge AI performance boost with NVIDIA DLSS, game-winning responsiveness with NVIDIA Reflex, and AI-powered voice & video with NVIDIA Broadcast.

If stores have suddenly all managed to find enough stock to deal with demand, I think its much more likely these were sitting in warehouses rather than a miracle happening in manufacturing where fab units need years to come online. Kind of like the flood of 1080ti cards in stores at end of pascal.

Still no mention that MSRP that we're supposedly chasing isn't normal MSRP from the series launch but the inflated one, with scalping included...

Nice one nvidia, only applies for 3050 and 3080 / 90 / Ti. , where is the 3070, I want a GA103 based with 7680 cuda fully enabled $499 Asap or just forget about it. 18 months since launch and china tariffs dropped and now this. Considering 4060 will make a 3080 Ti look like a low end and it won't cost more than 599 taking inflation into account.

Yes.

RTX 3070 available from 699,00 €, MSRP 499 $, increase of 26%.
RTX 3080 10 GB available from 957,00 €, MSRP 599 $, increase of 23%.
RTX 3090 available from 1.849,00 €, MSRP 1.499 $.

Radeon RX 6800 XT 16 GB available from 939,00 €, MSRP 649 $, increase of 30%.

The increase is calculated by: multiply the MSRP by 1.2 (simulating VAT) and then using xe.com to convert from $ to €.
Normally, the prices should be considerably lower.

I am not buying anything at those inflated, scalper prices.

They can build as much stock as they wish... and then if they wish they can do whatever they like with them. Definitely not interested..

Nvidia:-, hi gamer's remember us, we've discounted down to only 10/20% above MSRP now our favoured miner's aren't buying and our next generation is due(to miner's)

On the left are the original EU prices for FE, on the right are the current MSRP prices for FE in EU ("adjusted for something" by Nvidia). Dunno where you got the $599 for 3080 10G as the OG 3080 FE had MSRP of $699. Prices in EU include VAT, prices in USD are listed without it.

Yeah, but there's no 3080FE, the one that's reasonably priced.

Really well played Nvidia/s.

Profit from inflated prices for as long as possible, then throw your soon-to-be obsolete cards on the market at still inflated prices so the masses have something to chew on while you prepare for the next round of "demand"-induced inflation. Shifting baselines and all, you know!

Somehow I can't shake the feeling that I've been somewhat cheated in at least this regard over the past few years....

Fully agree with this point of view. Since additional manufacturing capacities are highly sought after and still severely limited, that additional stock must have come from somewhere where it has been hoarded or held back potentially on purpose in order to milk the market for as long as possible. Goldman Sachs did something similar in the past with various metals where they bought huge quantities and shipped what they got to warehouses with the purpose of increasing prices for the remaining stock across the board for all their related financial products or bets to pay off big time and it worked.

Honestly mining is shouldering too much of the blame. The same problems that hit the 30-series are going to hit the 40-series, mining or not. The global situation is still not improved enough.

Nvidia's New "Even miners are tired of buying directly from us and only retailers are buying, making stock on shelves good now for everyday consumers so we'll put a PR spin on it to make sound like we care about every day consumers so they will flock to buy all this stock that miners don't want" Promotion!

Actually mining is very much responsible for the shortage. Look at steam survey, the adoptation to Ampere is terrible, both Pascal and Turing has much higher markedshare over 1.5 years past launch. The second most used Ampere card is a 3060 on a notebook. This means very many cardowners never use steam (aka miners).

25% of Q1 2021 GPUs went to miners

Nvidia themselves didn`t make things better and sold about 200 000 cards directly to miners post launch:
Nvidia sold 175mill of worth to miners
