Is there not a thread where OCUK got a load of MSI cards and to be fair weren't too badly priced. BAse card was six fiddy.

£1290? You'll be feelin' someone 'hangin out the back of ya' for that.

Especially when you sell it.
 
Personally I don't think it's worth it at double the price I paid for my 3080.

There were 3080ti FE in stock for hours yesterday at £1050 and while its 10% faster than a standard 3080 with 2gb more VRAM it's debatable whether or not they are even worth it.
 
You'd have been better off getting a 3080Ti FE the other day. 3080 RRP is about £650 so £1300 is obviously daylight robbery.
 
If you're thinking of buying that card at that price you really need to see a psychiatrist. If spending that much you could get a 3090 or 3080TI or two 3080FEs. Buying the Suprim at that price
would genuinely be one of, if not the, daftest buying decision of any computer component I've seen in 20 years.

Guys a said looking to get, and asked for opinions. Now the fact i asked that should show that i am not 100% in the know like you lot are.
i asked for advice, not keyboard warrior mental health evaluations. Cheers for the sensible replies, i won't be buying that card.
if you feel the need to reply knock yourself out..........................
 
Mine was way cheaper than the one at the shop but there has been another shortage announced.
