** NVIDIA RTX 30 SERIES NOW ONLINE AT OVERCLOCKERS UK (3090 / 3080 / 3070) **

[Tom|Nbk]

Gambling your money on bitcoin and then spending the winnings on a strongly depriciating liability such as a car isn't my idea of sound play. But I mean each to their own. I like to always try and turn £1 into £2.
My friend has a Ferrari but he didn't buy it until he had over £10M in property and £1M a year income. Enough so that the car cost was inconsequential.
But everyone likes different things.

Except the Ferrari won't really depreciate. Anyway please stop with the ferrari nonsense.

There's a gigantic retailer listing an EVGA XC3 Ultra at £2500 lol Seems up your street!

Ok I do have some limits I guess!! I'll buy a card on OC regardless of how how much the price creeps is a better way of phrasing it.

With the extremely limited OC potential on the FE card which has a really good cooling solution what on earth is the point in getting anything other than a cheap 3080?

Only if you mean getting a cheap FE. The cheap AIB boards don't have the same power limit and their cooling may be inferior

Nvidia might only have 100 3080 FEs though..............

 

[maddness]

..i ordered me some popcorn

 

[RichardH754]

Is it worth double the 3080 though?

FE are limited and you probably have a better chance of getting an AIB. The AIB cooling might even be better as the cheaper ones are still larger than the FE.

20%. I am expecting a higher boost.

Which begs the question where the 3080ti is gonna sit at price wise as theres such a big gap but the performance gap is so tiny...

 

[Stu999]

2pm apparently however expect the website to crash usually does .

I’ve identified an alternative AIB card on OcUK I like. Difficult to find other two slot cards. I want two slot as the stupid design of my mobo means there is a potential clearance issue with the heat sink on my Corsair MP600 HD.

 

[lordhawkwind]

Just spoke to three other etailers and they expect stock to run out within 30 seconds to two minutes. They have very limited stock. They all said next batch of stock early 2021. Seems like all rumours of stock shortages are true after all.

I'm with you on this. We're essentially limited to the FE and the 3 EVGA cards, in the 2-2.2 slot range, right?

Yes, it’s a real pain. Not really willing to buy a new mobo for a GPU!

 

[Stu999]

Well, I just realised I left my credit card at home and only have my AMEX. So won't be buying from OC lol.

There’s Amazon Pay on the checkout, could use that?

 

[Captain]

I’m ready to go, 99% sure I’ll miss out on an FE card though.

Well normally with Nvidia it goes like this,.

The have their premium product normally called a Titan (this time lets call it a 3090)

They sell so many to keen enthusiasts and people who use them for work.

They then launch a Ti version which is 95% of the Titan/3090 performance but is £300+ cheaper. If you are really unlucky the ti can actually be faster than your Titan/3090 as was what happened with the 1080ti which was 5% faster than the Titan but cost much much less.

Your mistakes are to assume that Nvidia will try to fill the gap between the cards performance or care about anybody who has bought a 3090

 

[RichardH754]

want a 3090,, but not sure if the 15% or 20% is worth it, the cuda cores are close

 

[Tom|Nbk]

you literally just made the last comment.... lol aaaaand. you are entierly wrong. but yeah. stop!

But I'm not wrong, I own a couple of prestige cars myself #flex, they don't depreciate if bought at the right time or at least depreciate very little I'm sure @Gibbo will confirm

Its going to be battle of the F5 and mouse clicks.

 

[WesleyBurns]

Ocuk have been super shtum around this 3080. Silence.

Maybe they have the biggest supply in the uk.

 

[Dontrocktheboat]

But I'm not wrong, I own a couple of prestige cars myself #flex, they don't appreciate if bought at the right time or at least depreciate very little I'm sure @Gibbo will confirm

Gibbo is just doing some final RRP adjustment on the website, +50£ to the line up, give him time.

 

[Absolutely Clueless]

Jealousy

I’m not jealous of anyone living up North. Most of us South East folks could buy a Ferrari or two if we did (or a £1000 Strix 3080...)
