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

[King Mustard]

Even when stock returns to normal the price will probably sit around £700 or higher

Not for the Founders Edition.

I'll wait for those to be back in stock.

 

[Simon Prater]

I'm desperate for a ASUS Rog Strix 3080 :< When will they come back!?

Yours will probably show up before mine lol

 

[Goosy]

Got my £1030 3080 TUF OC coming on Friday which I am very excited about.

Can't wait to see how amazing it performs. Should be a nice upgrade from the 2080.

Cyberpunk here I come!

The RRP price of £650.
Also some people seem to like graphics card that look good. Personally I couldn't give 2 ***** about how it looks.
I'll take better cooling every day of the week.

It's stunning value at rrp..For £1000 they're asking for at that auction site? Not so much.

They RRP and the cooling isnt as bad as a couple of years ago.

I dont think AIB is worth the current price premium personally.

Have to agree, I remember seeing them mentioning an OK amount was due (for reference Gibbo said it was 50 in the 30XX series thread). but they when i only went down 25 spaces i knew something was up. surprised i am still in the queue now and not cancelled yet... hopefully the rest of the "86" they are expecting show up.

I'm 101 in the queue so I'm going to stick it out for now, just frustrating that I ordered it relatively quickly and chose this model because it said 'due date 21st September' on it, call me naïve I don't care but I believed it and would've went for another model otherwise. And now it looks like I've got a model which doesn't seemingly be getting stocked at all for this particular retailer. But I'm just glad I'm not in the high hundreds. Also annoying that my card was declined twice from both overclockers and another retailer around 5-10 minutes after the release time (was my fault, problem with my card) and I would've had the card by now if it wasn't for this mistake.

500,000 graphics cards found in an abandoned container

The RTX 3070, 3080 and 3090 are still hard to find. A shortage favored by strong demand, excessively long production cycles and the global pandemic, which does not make things easier. Good news however, since a South Korean port operator has just got hold of a lost shipment of 500,000 GeForce RTX 3000 cards!

Stop reposting this ****. It has already been disproved.

The problem is people see a headline and keep resharing till it becomes general consensus.
