The prices of AMD Radeon RX 6000 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 series cards have been falling rapidly in the last few months. While both series remain above MSRP, GeForce RTX 30 cards are now two times cheaper in Germany than they were in May.

What? 3080 still at 2400 usd on eBay.....
This isn't a slump, it's a return to MSRP. We shouldn't normalize scalping prices by calling this a slump.
This shouldn't have even been written. You obviously did little research in what actual prices are and instead, all you did was produce click bait. Thanks for wasting our time and keeping us "informed".
I don't think you even know the MSRP of these cards but an $800.00+ on a 6700 which is a 400.00 dollar card at best. You must be living in the Nvidia price world from the 20 series where a 2080ti was 1200.00
AMD and Nvidia have taken the price of GPU out of the range of DIY and people who want to upgrade. The only hope there is intel brings a card out at as reasonable price(yeah right). The other hope is if China brings there GPU to the US/Eu market. The PRICES ON These CARDS ARE STILL WAAAY TO HIGH.
built a pc for mostly playing games, i should have bought a ps5 or xbox which only costs 1/3 with same performance.
This is some *censored* article prices gone from 1600+ to 1250+ for 3080.
Where is the X2 drop? :o
For someone writing an article on video cards isn't very knowledgeable. Calls is a slump when it's returning to retail normalcy. And notably they are still double retail.
The person who wrote this article should fired immediately for cause.
Anyone who could write such an article should not call himself "Senior Tech Writer". He is what I, as an actual techie of 42 years would call a, "Computer User, Non-Technical".
There is absolutely NOTHING about this article which is factual other than that prices are returning to MSRP (and should get there by August) but the prices even then will not be "normal".
This article did a major disservice to the members of this site and perhaps Alex Alderson might consider a job building computers for The Verge. ::)
Please tell us how something becomes two times cheaper than it was before. If something was $1, what is the price of something that is two times less than $1? Negative $2? Negative $1? Is it free?
How does anything become two times less than it was before?

No one has any video cards in stock, so what does it matter?
