Only retail price matters, those ones are likely fake.

Better than the leaked prices we got before (the 16GB 5060Ti at $499 was ridiculous) but, with tariffs and everything that's going on, it's as Matt says, we won't know how much they'll cost until we see the retail price.

And the same will be true for AMD's 9060s cards.

Yeah, those are MSRP, so probably some fo the first batch cards will be at that price, never to show up again afterwards.

Probably will end up at least at that leaked $499. Still interesting to see they are, at least a little bit, concerned for that segment.

Depends, really.

I was just checking out the availability of current-gen cards on my local e-tailer and not only were there many GPUs available (over 50 Blackwell and RDNA4 GPUs combined), but some prices have really come down quite a bit already, especially on the NVidia side:

• The 5070 was generally available for 649€ (The original European MSRP if I'm not mistaken before it got reduced slightly), with several models at that price
• The 5070Ti was now below 1000€, at 939€ for the cheapest one and hardest to find Blackwell card.
• The 5080, which until shortly was hovering around 1500€ for the cheapest one, is now available for 1349€ and one model for 1229€ is sold out
• The 5090, where all models were north of 3000€, are now available for 2849€
• The 9070 meanwhile hasn't really budged and is still available for 674€
• The 9070XT, the card with the biggest availability issues right now, is also not moving in price and thus still at 789€

So yeah, with the availability improving, NVidia's other blunders with Blackwell weighing them down and AMD making some serious competition, the prices are now slowly coming down.
