NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080Ti to be "available" on June 3rd, RTX 3070Ti on June 10th

[Simon Belmont]

What kinda logic is this? By your post one would think that you can find any cheap 6700XTs

Well it might be overpriced a little, but rx 6700 xt's are £700+ Better then £2000+ for Nvidia. Greedy ********

Well the announcement is on at around 6, presumably Jensen in his spatula fetish kitchen once again gibbering on like the cards will be plentiful in supply.

6am tomorrow, well worth getting up for

10pm ffs, wouldn't shock me if they launched immediately and sold out immediately too.

I'm talking about availability of stock in the first place, not sales. From following stock alerts over the past few months, ones for the 3080 are fairly rare and ones for the 3060 Ti are almost non-existent (maybe a couple per week). That's compared to the 3060, 3070 and 3090, which show up multiple times almost every day. The two rarest cards also happen to be the ones that feature dies which could instead be used for more expensive models (the 3070 and 3090). I don't think that's a coincidence.

You're saying the 3080 is a "rare" card. On the shelves in retail to buy, yes it is. You're not factoring in the cards that are manufactured and go straight to service the worldwide queues.

From figures published by Gibbo, the ratio of cards shipped is about 2 to 1, 3080 to 3090, so not as rare you think.

I do agree about the 3060 Ti, rocking horse **** is easier to get hold of.

and talk of "plenty of availability to miners" guaranteed

So when exactly is the kitchen/spatula/leather jacket type thingy happening?

Not even that, the titans kicked off this trend which was arguably nvidia experimenting to see how much they could ratchet the price up.

So you're saying it's all Kaapstads fault?

Don't talk a load of crap, you think his work uniform consists of a leather jacket? It's just what he wears during announcements etc.

Ye

Nvidia are so greedy. Don't buy from them. If you really need a GPU just get a RX 6700 XT. I can see loads in stock everywhere.

Doesn't that just prove no one wants an AMD card? 6900XT are still in stock on here if it was a 3090 they would be gone in seconds

As Mr Roper says "there's a point I won't go beyond" and this definetly comes sooner for AMD cards.

Warranty is an issue as well, 2 years is pish.

And if those were 3090s for £1500 they would only be £100 over Msrp, instead of 2x the msrp. The mba 6900xt is around msrp £850, so £1500 is close enough to 2x the cost.

My Asus TUF 6900xt has 3 year warranty, better than 2 years?

Not sure why they have 1 year more, most sites that have that card listed are saying 2 years.

They don’t even have that type of warranty on the 6900xt strix LC card on other sites which is odd.
