I'm curious about the current GPU market. It seems like prices are really high right now, and I'm wondering if I should wait it out for better deals or if I should buy one now before they potentially go up even more. What do you all think?

It's hard to say when prices will stabilize. Right now, it feels pretty rough for buyers. But if you look at low to mid-range cards, you can still find some reasonable pricing. Historical prices have been worse, though—lots of people had trouble finding anything decent during the Covid and crypto boom days.
Honestly, now might be one of the worst times to buy a GPU. Prices are inflated for most models, but if you're specifically looking at the 5070 or 5070 Ti, the prices aren't completely crazy compared to some alternatives.
True, and I've noticed the 9070XT models selling out quickly too. That might force a price drop on the 5070 series soon.
