Gibbo - Drop the Gigabyte 1080ti to £579 again

Andy321 · 1 Nov 2018 at 20:47

Pick up a “like new” used EVGA 1080Ti FTW3 icx for £450 yesterday. Was worried I paid to much, but reading through this thread I’m glad I snatched it up.

Well you know what Jensen says... the more you buy the more you save. So you just need to buy all of them and they are free.

RTX2080 now officially cheaper than GTX1080ti. Or is that GTX1080ti are more expensive than RTX2080? This becoming illogical. Totally confused. 33% price increase in weeks. RTX2080 almost looks a good price now. This is very tactically planned.

It’s like F5 chess

I’m now set logged into OcUK shop should @Gibbo want to let me know via PM if he opens a ten minute window for me at £579 so I can use PayPal

It shall drop to £599 at 9am until 9am tomorrow, that is your last chance and I am afraid no to £579, £599 is the best now!

If people get their GPU from Case King can OcUK help if it needs to be RMAed or does it need to go back to Case King?

I have just ordered a couple of EVGA FTW3 2080 Ti cards from them. Then I thought what happens if I have to RMA them if they have the RTX Invaders fault as I don't speak German.

damn decent of you old boy - while you're in a being decent mood what is the likelihood of the vega 64 strix dropping back to 449 (or even close to it)? and did you ever get clarification from asus on the warranty if the thermal pads were changed by the user?

I think it's up to @easyrider to make up the difference on the way up surely? The kingpin of it all as it were.

I'm surprised you dropped it again to be honest. Given Easy is likely not a frequent customer (password issues) I think I'd have told them to swivel and put up a picture of Clarkson with his "L" symbol done with his hands for missing out last time

.
Lets hope they actually buy one this time! £20 extra for the stupidity tax, for not having their act together last time, hopefully worth it to them.
On another note, good to see trying to accommodate customers tho.,

Haha, made me laugh more than it should

ANDARIAL · 2 Nov 2018 at 11:43

Damn, i can`t count how many times i have `browsed` to that deal this morning

I just can`t persuade myself i need it over my Zotac 1070 ES

Your 1070 is decent bud and selling it would just make you happier with a 1080Ti at this discounted price

ANDARIAL · 2 Nov 2018 at 12:02

I know
I had been looking/saving for a 2080ti until they came out with that obscene price :eek:

I don`t `need` an upgrade,but i `want`one

I only play older type games like lfdead and s sam but have a Rift so could benefit.....maybe
Current gfx card has got dibs on with a m8/neighbour so that would be sorted as he won`t be getting it for peanuts like last time i upgraded
