Retailers in both the US and UK are currently offering some pretty great discounts for Nvidia's lineup of RTX graphics cards, including the RTX 2060, RTX 2060 Super, RTX 2070 and the RTX 2080 Super.

These graphics card deals are likely in response to the upcoming release of Nvidia's next-gen Ampere-based graphics cards, including the much-rumored Nvidia RTX 3080.

With Nvidia readying newer, more powerful GPUs, it makes sense that current-gen graphics cards are coming down in price. Retailers could also be cutting prices to clear stock and make way for the new components.

Whatever the reason, the fact that there are some pretty big discounts for some of the best graphics cards on the market is great news for anyone who is looking to upgrade their gaming PC. Even with new GPUs from Nvidia coming out later this year, these RTX graphics cards are still brilliant upgrade.

So, now is an ideal time to upgrade your PC with an Nvidia RTX graphics card. We've listed the best deals for both the US and UK below.
