Video cards in Europe are rapidly getting cheaper. Over 20 days markup decreased by 20%
Last summer, against the background of the collapse of the crypto market, video cards fell significantly, but then the price increase resumed. Since mid-January, the opposite trend has been observed: video cards are getting cheaper. Moreover, according to 3DCenter, they have been rapidly falling in price lately: by 20% in 20 days!
All Nvidia and AMD models are still higher than suggested retail prices, but markups are not nearly as high as they used to be. In the case of AMD models, they are now 45% (against 63% in the second half of January), in the case of Nvidia models – 57% versus 77% a few weeks ago.
The graphics card price decline chart coincides with the Ethereum price decline chart, but at the same time, the curve showing the availability of different models goes up: 3D cards are getting cheaper against the backdrop of increasing supply, and this is a very important point. About the same thing was said yesterday in the news about the Chinese market: increased stocks are forcing local video card manufacturers to reduce prices.
If we talk about specific models, then in the case of the “red” the smallest increase falls on the younger Radeon RX 6500 XT – its most affordable versions are offered only 17% more than the recommended price. The markup on other models of the line is approximately 32-33%.
The retail price for the rival Radeon RX 6500 TX – Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 – differs more noticeably from the official one: it is 49% higher. The lowest margin on the GeForce RTX 3080 Ti is 32%.

Yoga Air 32 is equipped with a 14-core Intel i9-13900H processor, 32 GB of LPDDR5-6000 memory and a 1 TB SSD. The discrete graphics is the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop.

Here’s a Pro laptop for you. Lenovo introduced Xiaoxin Pro 16 2023 Core Independent Display Edition – it has a Core i5 processor and no discrete graphics
Lenovo introduced a special version of the Xiaoxin Pro 16 2023 laptop in China: the new model is called the Core Independent Display Edition, and its name indicates the absence of a discrete graphics adapter.
Previous “full” versions of Xiaoxin Pro 16 2023 had either GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop or GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop. But in the Core Independent Display Edition, the Iris Xe video core integrated into the CPU is responsible for graphics processing. The processor is also not the most powerful – 12-core Core i5-13500H, but it is used in all configurations of Xiaoxin Pro 16 2023.
Of course, due to the exclusion of dGPU, the new version of the laptop has become cheaper than previously presented: they ask for $ 800 for it. For comparison, the cost of the GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop version is $1030.
Xiaoxin Pro 16 2023 Core Independent Display Edition received a 16-inch screen with a resolution of 2.5K and a frame rate of 120 Hz, a 75 Wh battery, a pair of USB-C ports with Thunderbolt interface, 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD. Device thickness – 17.5 mm, weight – 1.93 kg.
