The prices of graphics cards radeon will drop at the end of the year

In an interview with those responsible for Sapphire at Computex, one of the issues that emerged was that of cryptocurrencies. Sapphire (which owns Radeon and GeForce graphics) explained that they have separated their business of cards for mining and that of focused on traditional players. This was not an easy feat, but the firm believes it already has it covered, in part because it is now manufacturing precast rigs specifically for miners.

AMD is optimistic about the price of its Radeon graphics for the second half

Sapphire claims they are creating the same number of gaming-focused cards, and they also offer specialized solutions for miners. Demand from the cryptocurrency mining sector has stagnated in recent months, but they still believe that demand will remain high as Ethereum does not want to give everything to ASICs, so graphics cards are still in demand for these operations.

However, despite the fact that mining demand has decreased and there is more stock, prices remain high. It's no longer as extreme as it was a couple of months ago, when crazy prices were being asked for for most NVIDIA and AMD cards, but retail prices are still much higher than they should be.

The trend is for Radeon charts to drop in price by the end of the year as retailers update costs

AMD's Scott Herkelman predicts prices will begin to normalize in the coming months. As PCGamesN points out, this mainly depends on the retail channel:

It's getting closer, but the time has not yet come for retailers to accept that stocks are here to stay, that their margins may remain intact, and that they can start to drive down prices for individual graphics cards . They commented.

If you are thinking of making an investment in an AMD (or NVIDIA) graphics card, it may be more reasonable to wait a few months until prices drop a little further.
