As the anticipation for the next generation of GPUs grows, Nvidia’s RTX 40 series has seen a price reduction from UK retailers. This trend is particularly noticeable among the mid-range and high-end models, offering gamers a great opportunity to upgrade their systems at a better price.
The price drops are a result of several factors. Firstly, the current generation of GPUs is slowly approaching its “end-of-life”, meaning that retailers are looking to clear their inventory in preparation for the release of RTX 50 series models. Secondly, the increasing excitement surrounding the next generation of GPUs has led to a decrease in demand for the RTX 40 series at full price.
