330 EUR is roughly reflective of the street price of the B580 in Europe.

For example:

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/sparkle-intel-arc-b580-guardi... (~330 EUR)

https://www.inet.se/produkt/5414587/acer-arc-b580-12gb-nitro... (~336 EUR)

Can confirm, bought mine for about 350 EUR in Latvia from a store that's known to add a bit of markup on things.

Though the market is particularly bad here, because an RTX 3060 12 GB (not Ti) costs between 310 - 370 EUR and an RX 7600 XT is between 370 - 420 EUR.

Either way, I'm happy that these cards exist because Battlemage is noticeably better than Alchemist in my experience (previously had an A580, now it's my current backup instead of the old RX 570 or RX 580) and it's good to have entry/mid level cards.

On Newegg the cheapest in stock is USD$370 as an example. This is consistent for Intel cards unfortunately.

The reviews will say "decent value at RRP" but Intel cards never ever sell anywhere near RRP meaning that when it comes down to it you're much better off not going Intel.

I feel like reviews should all acknowledge this fact by now. "Would be decent value at RRP but not recommended since Intel cards are always %50 over RRP".

I bought the Asus version of the B580 at MSRP of $280 on launch day.

Central Computers in the SF Bay Area keeps them at MSRP. They may not be in stock online, but the stores frequently have stock, especially San Mateo.

Not useful to people outside the area, but then Microcenter also sells at MSRP. So there are non-scalping stores out there.

The trick is to jump on the stock when it arrives.

newegg doesn't have any stock of B580s at hte moment, you're looking at 3rd party sellers who are raising prices (and hence why have stock).
