Updated:See our latest GPU Pricing Update here.
This positively affected GPU pricing in late May and throughout June, and continues to have an effect today.
But progress remains slow.
The other key contributing factor are of course cryptocurrencies, so let’s check what’s happening there.
As of writing, Ethereum prices have fallen compared to a month ago.
In ourlastGPU pricing check, Ethereum was sitting at ~$2300.
Right now it’s around $1800, a drop of 22%.

Overall difficulty as well as gas prices are important, too.
A drop is a drop though, and that will have an effect on the GPU market.
On average, GPUs still cost roughly double their MSRP… ## How About Used GPUs?
Used GPU prices have also fallen in the past month, at a similar rate to current generation cards.
The market is looking much better for GTX 16 series cards this month.
Older Radeon GPUs also remain quite inflated in models that have decent mining performance.
Let’s hope we see things continue this way, though of course there are zero guarantees.
We’ll keep assessing the market, and hopefully we’ll see more improvements.
