Personally I think nvidia have paper launched these cards just to steal custom from the consoles and AMD whilst they still can.

Not doing so great in FS2020, which is really what I want it for.
Most definitely.
They've priced the cards sensibly and that can only mean they're not sure or they're worried about AMD's offerings.
They sure as hell didn't think "lets treat all our NVIDIA fans with some semi-sensible pricing because we really took the mick last generaton with the 20 series and feel bad about it"
Have AMD got the bullets in the chamber to punish NVIDIA for their bully boy practice with TMSC and their ill-will from the 20 series? If they don't then its an oppurtunity missed.

Like @humbug or someone said before, it really is an open goal - best chance AMD will get to do some damage and win over any mindshare thats left.

More like 1800 wouldn't surprise me. And they're not selling them at msrp because of "reasons".

Because it's our fault some were annoyed at the prices altering in the middle of checkout and going up and down all over the place whilst the website was struggling. They were doing us a favour goddamit!
Not being ripped off is a favour!
I would imagine they will be up for sale this week at some point, according to NVidia they're shipping them out constantly so they could well be available on their site sometime this week.

Can I ask where you are getting that information as I can't find anything
live seen conflicting info. One employee posted in their forums that 1000s and 1000 will be available within a week and I’ve seen another state they have absolutely none more ready and they have no idea when they might have any.
LoL. AMD are strangely quiet. They aren't doing anything tbh
The card has only just came out give it chance to have some updates, there will be games it's not great on yet.

Seen lots of opinions on the price change, I have probably an unpopular opinion and say it's good they increased the prices a bit. They have a massive amount of orders over MRSP, this will give them stronger purchasing power to compete against other retailers and still provide decent profits. Since now they know they have orders secured already. If they don't get units quick, more and more cancel and will wait for AMD launch for more competition, so id say their is a battle around distributors right now and while their is a spread for AIB's to push them equally and deal directly, that just isn't the case overall when dealing with so much demand.
Yeah but is it the card or is the game being an unoptomised title which needs some patches?
You'll be waiting no matter what.
One does not simply buy a 3080 and get it this month/before Christmas
One game and very CPU dependant.
