Zarathustra Nvidia Price History
Over at [H] have posted Zarathustra's Nvidia Price History. They wrote: "Our method is simple; pick NVIDIA's top end GPU introduction price for each era and estimate inflation using the Bureau of Labor and Statistics published values for the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) based on the launch date of each GPU.
The end period used is January 2017, as these are the most recent published figures. (I doubt there has been much inflation since then.) Once done, we figure out the price in 2017 dollars for every card at launch, and chart those on a graph. The astute reader will notice that Titan cards are absent from this comparison. This was a conscious decision, as Titan cards appear to be in a "halo class" of their own, and the pricing doesn't seem to obey the normal laws of physics (err, normal pricing trends) resulting in the analysis looking odd. We also made the conscious decision to start in 2000, as that seemed like a nice round year to start things at."
As we can see from this chart, current pricing for the 1080 Ti is pretty much inline with where NVIDIA has typically been. When adjusted for inflation the 1080 Ti almost exactly matches the price of the GeForce 2 Ultra from back in 2000. We have some notable fluctuation over the years, which mostly seems to coincide with when NVIDIA had true competition in the market place. When NVIDIA were on top, and the competition had nothing, the prices went up, as we can see with the 8800 Ultra. Other times, during periods of higher competition in the market, pricing was lower. You could argue that the 1080 Ti is actually under-priced for the market climate. Argue whichever way you want about the appropriateness of NVIDIA's pricing, but this information does show a trend much in line with the relative market position of the brand.
The results as posted on hardocp, well have a peek:

1080ti is for 904$, 1080 for 766$ now in my country, but 980 bought for 564$ in September 2014.. So how is prices of older card match table, but new cards not?

That's considerably cheaper than over here. I've heard Australians lamenting how PC hardware is so expensive in your country, so perhaps it's a small consolation that it can be even more expensive elsewhere. For example the EVGA Founders Edition is going for 1227 in AUD.
Every single brand of 1080ti on PCCG is $1129, Australian price xD

Yeah i saw that and was pleasantly surprised, considering the GTX1080 launched at $1299 AUD

Nice! It would be nice to see it in EURO as well though.

It just seems like prices are more expensive now than in the past for Nvidia video cards in Australia, even for the lower end cards like the 1060, just seems like they are over a hundred dollars more expensive than what they should be.

Its not that drastic. If nvidia didnt pull Titan GPU's every year the flahship prices dont differ that much.
That is US prices ofc but as many live EU (like myself) i can safely say we are ****ed as always.

In my country (spain) prices go from 828€ to 839€ depending the model, for example
ASUS/MSI/Gigabyte GeForce® GTX 1080 Ti Founder Edition 11GB GDDR5X --- 828.95€
ASUS Geforce GTX 1080 ti ROG Strix 11G --- 839€
ASUS Geforce GTX 1080 ti Turbo 11G --- 829€
Edit: the prices are in Euros (For some reason the symbol doesnt appear)

That's one dole payment, plus one $500 advance payment
or if you work 1.5 weeks work after you tax apx (**** job). 
or 1 to 3 days pay if you're in IT doing 3rd level tech support etc!

Are those the current prices of the 1080??? I ask this because the prices of the 1080 have dropped alot in the last week since Nvidia announced the price cut. In Portugal you can get a MSI 1080 Armour for less than 600€ and i´ve just ordered a Gigabyte 1080 for 515€.
1080ti is for 904$, 1080 for 766$ now in my country, but 980 bought for 564$ in September 2014.. So how is prices of older card match table, but new cards not?

1 Australian dollar = 0.76 US dollar. I'm guessing there's some sort of tax added to any purchase ...

Geforce GTX680: $500
TECHNICAL EQUIVALENT GTX560: $199
Geforce GTX780: $650
TECHNICAL EQUIVALENT GTX560Ti :$250
Zarathustra can go f@ck himself.
Does not compute. Is math even this is? clouds?
But alas, i have fixed for you:
Geforce GTX680: $500
TECHNICAL EQUIVALENT GTX770: $400
Geforce GTX780: $650
TECHNICAL EQUIVALENT GTX970 :$330
In reference to the chart, this is only a what-if. Everything depreciates in value over time and the meaning of inflation is comparing an existing good with a new one and determining how much value has come out of producing the new good over the old one. Without competition, inflation occurs more rapidly since little is done (why waste the energy if there's no one to worry about taking a piece of your pie?) for trying to improve on the existing good, while being unrestricted to changing the price of it.
Considering the jumps made from each subsequent architecture, the price gets cut involving FPS as a direct comparison between two GPU's/goods.
