This is an overclocked model so it has a higher base msrp, but unfortunately it’s just the state of the market right now. People are still buying them regardless so there’s not a lot of incentive to lower it
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is how the system works. Big business speculates, and that's neither ethical nor humanly correct. This is how supply and demand work. If demand ceases, prices will inevitably fall. The free market in this world could be completely different. Humans live like this today.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are two "Gigabyte 9070 XT Gaming" models. One of them (w/o "OC" in the name) is an MSRP card and at launch day was $600. It was only $600 because at the last minute AMD decided to lower MSRP and used rebates to retailers who already had them in inventory to make up the difference vs. what they were told the original MSRP would be. This is the "Gaming OC" model and the only one of the two with an actual page on Gigabyte's website (excluding their other model the AORUS which is $30 more). It's original price on launch day was $729, so unlike many others this is the original intended price. That $600 MSRP was fake - however it did reward the people who were loyal/excited enough to buy immediately after release. Now when the non-OC model is in stock is lists at $660 last time I saw - and the additional features of the OC model (and less propensity to have been overfilled with cooling gel) are arguably worth that premium.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The MSRP model is the Gigabyte 9070 XT Gaming 16G. This is the OC version.
