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

So no MSI Ventus cards being shipped, but MSI MEG Aegis Ti5 Gaming PC is available and it contains a RTX3080 card. Wonder if that's where they are going? Wouldn't think they need RGB on the GPU as the box lights up like a Christmas tree on the outside.

I managed to seal a MSI Gaming Trio X 3080 today from a competitor for a very good price, finally the 4 month search ends.

I will be celebrating tonight with a lovely chicken curry

Interesting... I really thought that was vapour stock that keeps popping up. Let us know when it actually arrives.

Some truth in that, but apparently GPUs are out of fashion with miners, they now use ASICs.

Apparently the miners didn't get your memo!

Unfortunately an expensive way to get hold of a 3080.
 
It's possible that DPD picked up early, and OC Packed your order ready for shipping just after 6pm after yesterdays shipment was picked up by DPD, so it's likely that you'll get yours tomorrow, when DPD pick the card up tonight.

It's supposed to be 7pm but who knows, could have been earlier yesterday.

The 3080s are being used to mine Ethereum more than Bitcoin actually.

That may be true now, but, the speed with which you can mine Ethereum depends on the hash rate of the mining rig and the continuously changing difficulty level. The latest Nvidia RTX 3090 has a hash rate of 120, whereas an ASIC hardware Innosilicon A10 Pro has a hash rate of 500. The guys using GPUs will soon be outclassed putting profits out of reach.
Cant happen fast enough as far a I am concerned.

Oh really? Ya hope they all suffer huge losses due to buy so many 3090s or 3080s

There have been some Ventus shipped, got my shipping confirmation last night for the Ventus
 
DPD tracking is crazy. Item shipped yesterday, but all I get when tracking is 'We've received your order details, but have not yet received your parcel'. So much for receiving it next day.

If ASIC hardware is so superior then why are miners buying up every 3060Ti and 3080 they can get their hands on?
 
Thought it was already heavily ASIC for bitcoin, still GPUs for eth. I'm no expert though. But if it's the case that there are available and economical ASICs for eth, then probably a matter of time before they move to them.
