Production is more than demand I would say.

They are looking to make a quick buck before NVidia launches their low- mid range lineup.

Is there any source for the price besides the md computers listing?
Apparently AMD has no control over the international prices, according to Robert Hallock their technical marketing guy

The prices might come down once enough pieces hit indian shores. Fingers crossed!

PrimeABGB prices it at 27000/-

Final nail in the coffin for me. Maybe I'll import a 1070. Or an AIB RX 480 if you guys are up for it.

Just chill guys. This is only due to limited stocks. At least this is what I can infer from this.

Per unit price is as low as 15.5k. Add duty, freight charges and local taxes, should be available for a reasonable price soon.

Prime is just following MD suit & trying to get as much profit as possible

Seems like there is a price reduction.

Looks like someone got a stern phonecall from Raja.

Tge card still hasn't officially launched in India, has it? Only one site is selling it and as of now we don't know if it's an import.

 

[rajan1311]

Possible to do a GO for these things ? If I remember correctly @Shripad was a distributor for HIS cards, maybe he would know more?
I really hope massdrop comes to india. These distributors are just killing the market.

According to latest reports it seems that the 480 is pulling too much PCIe power and damaging motherboards (http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Graphi...ns-Radeon-RX-480/Overclocking-Current-Testing). I suggest everyone in line to buy this card to wait until AMD releases a fix for this.

The card was officially launched this week. My local retailer will get stock on Monday, many retailers have got it.

As you know, we continuously tune our GPUs in order to maximize their performance within their given power envelopes and the speed of the memory interface, which in this case is an unprecedented 8Gbps for GDDR5. Recently, we identified select scenarios where the tuning of some RX 480 boards was not optimal. Fortunately, we can adjust the GPU's tuning via software in order to resolve this issue. We are already testing a driver that implements a fix, and we will provide an update to the community on our progress on Tuesday (July 5, 2016).

To those that say the price will drop, have you ever seen an Indian retailer drop prices or even know what he's selling. This is going to be the lifetime price of these cards. This Indian distributor + ignorant retailer nexus has really stifled the DIY enthusiast sector.

If you have followed GC releases and history on the price cuts, you will know. But if this is an exaggerated rant, well yeah they hardly care for international fluctuations.

I agree with suf... haven't seen any/many price corrections for a given card over a period of time.

Thanks for this, but where did you source it from?

Apparently most of the 4gb 480 models have actually 8 gb RAM which are just locked by BIOS. Seems like this can be unlocked to 8gb by a BIOS flash.

 

[Lord Nemesis]

The AMD announced prices seem to be not far off from what the online retailers are selling them for.

4GB = 23k + taxes ~ 25k
8GB = 27k + taxes ~ 29k
