Can they return to prepandemic price?
depends on how youre defining price. memory/storage is at its lowest point atm. CPUs are extremely competitive and AMD still ridiculously supports the AM4 platform. Monitor specs/price point are constantly dropping.
the only rhing that hasnt depreciated much is high end Nvidia gpus, because of AI reasons.
Now that EVGA does not product Nvidia cards anymore I don’t find much reason to purchase Nvidia over Amd now.
Why? Evga cards were cool but once in your computer they perform just the same as other AIB’s.
Storage is on the rise, 1tb for $100 is the norm again.
