I don’t think anyone who purchased an 3080 FE fell for anything. That card cost around £600 after selling the codes that came with it and so far a year on from release Far Cry 6 is about the only somewhat decent game that uses more than 10GB if you want the HD textures.
Also the new 12GB will likely cost more anyways and if one sold their 3080 even after it came out at the price they purchased it for people would snap their hand off.
People need to understand AMD and Nvidia are a business and not your friend. They will always try and maximise profits so don’t act shocked. Oh and you also need to understand how yields improve over time and cost and availability. The 12GB 3080 would certainly have cost a lot more last year when the 3080 came out and all the extra money would be for what? Still would not work properly on Far Cry 6 with HD Texture pack
That’s why your post and Grim’s thread make no sense
The 3080 fe was and still is the best deal at £650 and like you say if you sold that game better still.

It's all a scam on the consumer, consumers should be having none of this and should show their annoyance at Nvidia and AMD! Consumers need to say it's now enough!
10GB VRAM on one of Nvidia's flag ship cards that is totally out selling AMD cards. So then AMD work on one popular game (Far Cry 6), AMD force them to use a Texture Pack to cause issues for Nvidia's 10GB card.
All a bunch of nonsense! 99.5% of PC games will not use more than 10GB VRAM.
They are spitting in the face of gamers and gamers are taking it !
And gamers keep buying the cards so nothing is going to change.
Closer to treble it’s RRPHe also sold the GPU for double its RRP then later on bought a 3070 IIRC. He knows how to maximise his assets that fella!

I just say it as it is. That said, soon might be on 16GB if rumours are true and we get a 3070TiGuerrilla of the low VRAM.
Well will wait until Jan or thereabouts, anything much later than that and it gets close to 4000 series release at which point might as well just wait for that.Not waiting to see if there are any rumoured Super series?

Value of card on 2nd hand markets +£1200
So I'm up >£3000 but I can't play Far Cry 6 on max textures. I think 10GB is enough ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

42” LG OLED Black Friday 2022I think a display might be higher priority if one comes out that has bells and is small enough.
