What is going on with the preorder pricing of the 3070's?
I check them regularly, and they just keep on going up and up and up..?
Yea we know supply/demand is completely screwed up atm, but still.. they are nearly £100 above RRP now!
£500+ for a "mid range" card is completely bonkers.
It seems no matter how high Nvidia price these things, they sell out on launch every single time, so they just whack the prices up again for the next gen.
I paid £400 for my 1070 on launch, now you're telling me I've gotta drop £500+ to get a 3070..? Never seen a price rise that bad for the "same tier" of card in ANY previous xx70 generation.
I was originally excited for the 3000 series release like everyone else, but the prices have gone completely mad. Surely the bubble has got to burst at some point.. right..? At what point will these things no longer sell?!?!
I would love to get a card that can actually handle 4k/60fps but when it's significantly cheaper to get a complete next-gen console than a single graphics card, that's messed up imo..
Long gone are the days of getting a decent mid-range card for £200 :-\
