NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

Your not going to get £450 for a 2080 anymore.

I saw one sold on one of the auction sites few days ago for 550, what do you think is realistic price ?

That audio is ripe for a meme.

I know right, its the grunting and heavy breathing hahahaha

looks a cracker this one though. hefty price...

Looks like giga have dropped back to a 3yr warranty maybe? Not good if so.

 

[WesleyBurns]

When do the reviews land? Specifically AIB reviews, just before you can puchase them???

 

[Quartz]

See what I did there?

No. Because the 4090 is 2+ years away and the 3070 and 3080 cards with higher RAM have already been leaked, and the former is already one of Lenovo's SKUs.

Around £350

 

[Things change I've changed]

I don't get why everyone so happy about the pricing still. Is it just because Nvidia so grossly overpriced the 20 series that anything looks good.

The 3070 is still £150 more than what the 770, 970 and 1070 were priced at on average. That still puts it a whole tier up compares to three other generations.

Same premise with the 3080 pricing too. People are mad to think it represents overall good value to gamers. If they had dropped prices back in line with those generations I would be getting the reaction because that's where real value and cost to performance would shine.

Simply, because it could've been a lot worse, and the performance jump is good.

 

[JediFragger]

I dunno why, but when Jensen pulls the 3090 out the oven, the way he does it just makes me laugh!

Still can't get over the sheer ****ing *size* of the thing!!!

Hopefully that's still the case.

Zotac 3080 looking good atm at 649 + 5yr warranty.

Few days ago was before they announced the 3000 series cards. People weren't expecting nvidia to drop the price of the new cards to more reasonable levels, they also weren't expecting the 3070 to beat a 2080ti by some margin.

A 3070 is £469 and beats a 2080ti. So you have to account for that.

The 3080 might look overkill at 1440p in today's games but I bet the next gen games will definitely tap in to the power these cards pack.

2021 will be the year where these cards get used though for what they are capable.

Only Watch dogs Legion and CyberPunk might push them this year.

AiB cards will be even cheaper than that, the 3080 already hitting £639.

Cyberpunk is gonna be one of those games imo.

 

[lokiss]

I don't see any point in buying the 3070 or 3080 when there are higher VRAM cards in the offing, so my choices are to stick with my 2080 ti or go for the 3090.

Same boat. The specs alone were mind blowing enough though to make it a want anyway.

"{{ swear_word }}" expensive.

I'm guessing you are referring to the price of the waterblock? What you thinking? £200?

 

[opethdisciple]

AC Valhalla I imagine will perform much like Odyssey.

Nah. He was asking what the FE means.

"Flipping Expensive"

 

[Vertigo]

Will they be a zotac amp 3080?

Undoubtedly. There's obviously an embargo in place on specs right now so, whilst most manufacturers have opted to leave specs off their cards, Zotac have only announced their base models and obviously see no point releasing any details of the faster ones until they're allowed to publish full specs.

Not going to lie. Only reason im getting an AIB card over Founders is looks. Sorry but thats all there is to it for me. Prefer the looks of the AIBs and willing to pay £20 more for it. Im sure the Founders card works just fine.
