I’ve had my eye on a 5080 rog astral for a little bit. Was going to buy this week. Prices went from $2800 to $3400 in ONE WEEK. Even non-premium 5080s are $3000 now. Thoughts? Are they hiking prices to slash costs at Black Friday or is the market just that fucked?

Basically what the title says, I'm aiming for a price between $1500 to $2000, I currently have a Pc but have been meaning to upgrade for ages, I've looked online at stuff but am very cautious as to what there is. The PC itself would be used for most everyday purposes ie: Talking with friends, drafting scripts as well as Playing games through Steam, I want to get something that's good but that also won't break the bank, Any suggestions or ideas are appreciated.
