Gpu Prices Are Falling Below Msrp For The First Time In Years

Gamers rejoice! GPUs are getting cheaper again. With the inflated prices fueled by the crypto craze and chip shortage, picking up a decent GPU at an affordable price was an impossible task over the past couple of years. Forget affordability, even getting your hands on a flagship GPU meant racing against scalpers and crypto bros. Well, it looks like things are finally changing in the GPU marketplace as reports have shown that GPUs are falling below their MSRPs for the first time.

As Tom’s Hardware reports, GPU prices dropped 15% in May and have been witnessing 10-15% drops each month over the past few months. As you might have guessed already, the crypto crash and diminishing returns in GPU mining are the key factors driving GPU prices down.
