What is with this card lol, why is it priced like this? I don't understand how every other brand is at RRP +/- 5% and this card somehow is at +30% lol

It's the AIB itself selling directly via the competitor. Clearly they think they can shift cards directly to the public at that price.

My post was tongue in cheek. Sorry thought it came across as such
£709 is of course a ridiculous price for a 5070

It would seem that some people are paying £710 for a 12gb 5070.
Y'all crazy.

Yes people do pay that much for it, all sold now
Yeah, not putting it past Asus to do something scummy like that lol.
I long for the day they can compete in the high end tier again

Just dropped from 32 to 23 in my queue, either got a small shipment a few days early or people are dropping out of 5070ti pre-orders like flies

Now the new Mac Studio Ultra has been announced which I was waiting for as I only do video/rendering work (no gaming), it doesn’t look great so I’m staying with PC.
Is there any app or website you are using to keep an eye on sites/stock alerts when they release 5090’s and if so, what are they as think I’ve seen them mentioned here before?
I check manually through the day on various sites I’ve bookmarked and occasionally see 5090’s in stock but whenever I click through, they then show out of stock.

Not surprising when they could get almost the same performance for over £200 less tomorrow.

Yeah if I was in the market for a 5070/ti and saw today's reviews I'd probably YOLO over to a 9070xt. The fact that this place has literal Borg cubes worth of stock and Nvidia can't even rub 2 5070s together for their launch is abysmal on nvidias part.
Anyways, back to the wait for the daily update from the other place for 5090s, tally-ho
EDIT: oh my, 3 different 5090s

In this case it's just a handful of people at most. Said handful likely have a lot of disposable income and 0 care for how much it cost. There are just not many of these people and also small amount of cards.Yes people do pay that much for it, all sold now
Honestly it looks great if I didn't want Nvidia specific features like nvenc. I'll be sticking with the 5070ti as nvenc is still better, and I doubt FSR will be as good as DLSS 4. But for pure gaming performance the 9070xt just seems like a smarter option.
