Your article still states that 2080ti is 25% more expensive, but lists 1080ti at $700 and 2080ti at $1,200 (which are correct prices from nvidia website) which is 70% more. Which one is right?

It states that the "typical GPU system" (estimated at ~1300$ without GPU) will be 25% more expensive.

By the way, the MSRP for a regular 2080Ti is 999$, the 1200$ is the Founder's Edition price.

MSRP may be $999, but you won’t find them for much below $1,200 for the time being.

GPU modules are manufactured in China. Their harmonized codes are covered in recently established tariffs. 10% tariffs are already hitting cards arriving at US ports. This tariff will increase to 25% on Jan 1.

Prices will stay well above MSRP.
