This is the 8-GPU base model? I can't tell from listing. Still great price (if you Amazon visa slow ship for additional 6% off) for a month old product.

Quite likely.

More drop to be expected for thanksgiving/xmas, and even more when M6 comes out next year Smilie

Good price for a new one. But if you can accept a used or refurbished one, then $580 would be the optimal price.

There's seemingly no demand for this machine, now that you can get a Neo for literally half the price.

So I expect prices to continue to come down over the coming months. Particularly during "deal days" and Black Friday/Cyber Monday.
