Arrr mateys, the RTX 4080 Super be a sight for sore eyes as it lowers below its proper booty price. But, ye best be ponderin' all the options afore ye make a final decision. Yarrr!
Nvidia’s RTX 4080 Super graphics card has recently dropped below the $1,000 mark at major retailers in the US and UK. The GPU, which is recommended for 4K gaming, has only been on the market for four months and is now available for less than the official $999.99 MSRP. Third-party models may still be pricier, but some, like PNY’s Verto and Zotac’s Gaming RTX 4080 Super Trinity OC, are currently discounted on Newegg.While some price cuts are also visible in the UK, speculation suggests that Nvidia may be trying to make the RTX 4080 Super more appealing in anticipation of the upcoming next-gen GPUs like the rumored RTX 5080. This uncertainty may lead consumers to play a waiting game before investing in the current model, considering potential further price reductions and the possibility of higher-performing next-gen options. However, picking up an RTX 4080 Super at the current discounted price could still be a good choice for those in need of a reliable gaming graphics card for 4K gaming.Alternatively, consumers may consider exploring discounted higher-end AMD graphics cards, although similar uncertainties exist regarding the release of RDNA 4 GPUs from Team Red.
