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.

So everything still way overpriced...including 5070 :P

But yeah, 5070/Ti seem to be dropping the most.

Yeah, I think as long as there aren't any cheaper cards to pull the prices further down, they won't drop below MSRP for sure.

AMD probably has a hard time supplying enough GPUs right now. Wafer deals are made many months in advance and they couldn't at the time expect such a huge fuckup from NVidia, so they're probably desperately trying to get more Wafers from TSMC right now to bolster their supply. As long as they are still short on chips, I doubt the prices will fall much on the AMD side.
