Fools.

Prices are increasing once again on Amazon. Thankfully I still have my gaming rig even though the 3080 10GB VRAM is outdated by today's standards. If I had to do it over again I should have jumped on the HP Omen 45L with the RTX 5090 for $4200.

If an organization were dead set on buying-out an entire market, then the best selling would naturally be whatever had the most stock on the shelves.
Those are my conspiracy theories: that Scalpers are consolidating into organized cartels, and that Conficker was a hoax made to sell anti-virus software.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

No they don't, apparently.
You can't disprove it.

The earth is actually a giant super computer, created by another super computer, that was created by a race of massively intelligent inter-dimensional mice. Whose sole purpose is to provide the question, to the answer of 42, the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.

No? You dont think so?
Well, you can't disprove it.

 

[ingtar33]

this is hilarious. a 4060 at $500 is the no.1 seller.

this just proves somehow nvidia became a status brand like apple.

Last Thursdayism? Proving a negative? I am referring to your claim that there is a conspiracy between scalpers, whomever they may be, colluding together to corner the market. You would most certainly need extraordinary evidence for such a claim.

Depends on what you want. I was able to get two unscalped MSRP cards with plenty of opportunity for more. 5070s at MSRP were regularly available online.

This just proves that people will run to buy 5060 and 5050 when Nvidia will release those... No matter what AMD do...

 

[palladin9479]

AMD's mid range offerings are a lot more attractive right now. 7600 XT / 7800 / 7800 XT are all very solid cards. 7900 XT or XTX if you can find one at reasonable prices but they've mostly vanished off the market.

If anyone is near a microcenter then it's possible to get a 7900 XT for good price.

[Amdlova]

Got one today for 315... after that phsyx scandal. In thr future maybe use it with lossless scale for super fake frames

If anyone thinks that 4060 price is ridiculous, Amazon UK has a 3070 for £800 ($1,030) and a watercooled 3080 for £1,414 ($1,823)

 

[3ogdy]

I don't know, man. This is disappointing. 4060 for what should've been the 4080 MSRP?
It's ridiculous. This is a $199 card being sold for $500. I'm not sure the "Best-seller" status was gained with that price tag.

Something interesting I found a while ago is the fact that there are so many previous gen cards around. Back in the day, when the Radeon HD 3000 series came out, you were going to find HD2000 cards only for a short while. Now, it's even cards from various generations back that are being sold as new.

 

[CelicaGT]

Probably due to prebuilts, and internet cafes, just like the 1060, and 3060 before it.

 

[beyondlogic]

NVidia will crumble eventually people will get fed up with the insane pricing also wouldnt trust newegg not to change up the data to make it look more attractive amazon does that game all the time despite it being against uk trade law to say something was one price but it never was.

 

[oofdragon]

2060 Super, 3060 12GB and 3060Ti all have their appeal.. but 4060? C'mon

 

[nogaard777]

This is a BS list. No one is buying $500 4060s so they can wait for them to ship all the way from Hong Kong when they're far cheaper locally. Newegg sells positions on it's "best sellers" list. Apparently Hong Kong paid up.

And seriously, is anyone surprised Newegg might do something shady? The fact news outlets are picking up this story and running with it is proof that this kind of BS marketing works.

 

[ManDaddio]

I can buy a 4060 at suggested retail price. $500? Huh.

How much HP is paying you? Because you sound like a comment commercial. 😂

 

[teeejay94]

So what you're saying is people are still stupid and don't care about overspending. Dont ever complain about not having money if you spent 500$ on a 4060 you have no room to talk. Try not spending 500$ on a garbage bottom tier GPU you might have $500 in your pocket. (insert SpongeBob WOW rainbow meme)

The sad thing about that is that they're just going to completely give up on gamers as we keep demanding better, as long as everyone glazes Jensens decisions he'll happily pump out more bs, you can tell he really doesn't like criticisms though. And he'll just go full time into the AI market without breaking a sweat. It'll probably help him sleep better honestly, the moment the 40 series was released was the first red flag that Nvidia has quit on all of us.

ill agree to that but i think the warning signs where when super editions started coming out that nvidia realised they could con part of the market the real gpus are the super variants.

i waited till the 4070 super which is to me is the actual real 4060 ti

when nvidia started to manipulate the bus width on the cards thats should have been the big red flag.
