Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 32454, member: 636"] A Japanese retailer has listed a Palit RTX 5070 graphics card below the suggested retail price, which rarely happens in today's market. The store Dospara offers this GPU for 105,600 Yen, about 3,200 Yen less than the official price point. At current exchange rates, this makes the card available for roughly $733 USD, compared to the standard Japanese price of 108,800 Yen or about $753. The price difference might seem small, but it matters greatly to shoppers already facing much higher costs than North American customers. Many RTX 5070 cards actually sell for up to 130,000 Yen (around $900) in Japan, making this discounted version appear like a bargain. Graphics card prices typically exceed the manufacturer's suggested retail price these days, especially for new models like the RTX 50 and RX 9000 series. Higher-end graphics cards, such as the RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 5080, and RTX 5090, haven't received similar price cuts. These premium models rarely even appear at their official price points, let alone cheaper. However, the RTX 50 series supply has been improving steadily across markets. NVIDIA reportedly plans to use GDDR7 memory chips from SK Hynix as well, which might lead to more stable pricing soon. NVIDIA plans to launch its RTX 5060 Ti graphics card next week, with the standard RTX 5060 following later. Both cards will likely cost the same as the previous generation models they replace. The RTX 5070 launched at $549 in the United States, but international prices climbed much higher after adding taxes and import costs. [/QUOTE]
