*** NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3080 SERIES STOCK SITUATION - NO COMPETITOR DISCUSSION ***

Well if AMD release a card that outperforms the 3080, has 16gb VRAM and is cheaper then I'm sure nvidia didnt want to be stuck with a surplus of the 10gb as the 20gb would have to be released at the same MSRP.
Hmm, good point. I would've thought that the 20GB variant would be a seperate model though, with a choice between that or the 10GB version. Plus that'd surely screw over the AIB manufacturers?

This ain’t one body’s story. It’s the story of us all. We got it mouth-to-mouth, so you got to listen it and ‘member, ’cause what you hears today you got to tell the birthed tomorrow. I’m looking behind us now, across the count of time, down the long haul into history back. I sees the end what were the start.

It’s Pox-Eclipse, full of pain! tell us Captain Walker bout the RTX3080?

HAHAHA :D
 
The 3080 10gb was probably just a limited run till the 20gb versions arrive.

I doubt it was planned to be however it may end up that way if they can't get their **** together quick enough, they will be launching new cards before these arrive at this rate!! :D:D

They clearly rushed the release to beat AMD to market with no stock to back it up.
 
when did u ordered urs?
i sold my msi 2080 trio x few weeks ago in hope of getting 3080 , so cant play any game right now.but it was a good deal ,had to get rid of the card early.
on the date of release but late in the evening bout 11ish

still got my 2060 tho so im not worried about Cyberpunk but would love to play it in 4k 60fps instead of low q
 
Well I gave up waiting and purchased My EVGA 3080 Gaming card for £1000 :) Yes I paid a prem for it but I'm happy now , don't mind paying a little more having the card now and not having to spend hours here everyday for updates ha. just tried out RDR2 ultra 4k boom its amazing.
And you sir are the entire reason scalpers exist nice job.

Super

That would turn the situation into an thermonuclear detonation. If AMD come out with that on release day - 3070 releases soon after and within a week 3080 Super 20Gb gets announced while there are months of queues on the books for a standard 10Gb you will get everyone with a new 3080 in uproar that they have been had for being enthusiasts and god knows what will happen to the pre-orders. I don't see how nvidia can announce the 20Gb cards earlier than Apr/May time.
 
@EVH @Gibbo I know giving away a total of dispatched cards isn't something you can do but what are the chances that if we get a card delivered in the next week or two that it'll include the watchdogs code as I understand there was only 1000? Also, is that 1000 shared between 3080+3090 or separate?

Is that a trailer park boys quote ? Lmao
 
I managed to order an ASUS TUF OC about 20 minutes ago. Says it's coming Saturday from a place that usually aren't wrong about delivery estimates. Hopefully this is the case. Was only available to order for all of 1 minute.
