Heh, scalper prices are now MSRP prices and absurd scalper prices are now normal scalper prices - I pity those that kept abstaining at this point - now they will have to pay more or just go without.

Did I miss the 3080ti reveal or did it not happen? I came into the presentation late but didnt see anything regarding it

I had a few folks chuckle at the fact that I ordered a very solid $1900 pre-built with a 3080 last month.

I saw the writing on the wall and now you can't even build the same system yourself for less than $2300.

So how big of a deal is this?


It is basically the same thing that’s AMD was using for AMD Graphics + AMD CPU wasn’t it? And those improvements were marginal. Doesn’t mean NVIDIA hasn’t done it better I suppose! Just funny that it was probably something they could have activated the whole time but only cleared when AMD showed it.

Yeah ive been noticing a lot of 3090s going up in the middle of the night (for me on the east coast) for a while now. It's dumb, feels like it almost caters to the bots that way. I cant think of many people who work or have class in the morning that would be awake at 3-4am refreshing a newegg page.
They could change, but I think they don't give a fuck. Overnight drops leads me to believe it's the warehouse unloading the trucks overnight and putting the cards into stock.

Curious how Nvidia had a card announcement with pre-tariffs pricing - curious how THATS going to feel when it legit hits market.

I bet the moment they get unloaded they are scanned which sets off an assortment of automated processes, including updating the stock of the item

Sounds logical. I'd slip em a 20 if they'd wait til 7am or so for a change though. I need my beauty sleep more than I need a video card (at the moment, we'll see how Im feeling about that statement if Im still on the hunt for another week or two)

wow, what an amazing card for only 900 bucks. I can't wait not to buy.
I think all major crypto fags (people who run the farms, play the market etc) should be rounded up, and every third one put against the wall and shot. The rest would then be given an option to either stop being a colossal dickweed or be executed. And the gpu shortage problem would disappear.

All this angst over a GPU....

Well, card acquired, or at least ordered. Ended up breaking down and having to buy one of those stupid bundles newegg has been putting up. Got the Gigabyte Aorus 3090 and a psu that i dont need at friggin all on the way.

Edit - nm, cancelled the order. In no way did i feel good about spending nearly $2200 total after tax and shipping on a video card. Ill just be patient until i can get a 3080, the 3090s are just...no.

A dozen or so different cards dropped, out of stock within 2 minutes.

How this is still a thing is beyond me.

Could have bought a couple, but with the tariffs I just didn't really care to.

At this point I hope to replace my 1080ti by the end of the year, but I'm not optimistic.

Fuck these new prices though.

Lol the hate on Zotac makes it easy. Just bought Zotac 3080, and then went back through and was able to get a 3070. Friends are gonna be happy!! Or is there this thing that friends don't sell friends Zotac cards?
