30xx Series Founders Edition

[Purgatory]

3080ti still available, which is a good sign. Too pricey for me, though.

Because they are not worth it compared to the 3090 FE. Unless you can't fit a 3090 FE in your case or for a small form factor build. Hope this is a sign to Nvidia that such a card is not what customers want, a card that is basically what a 3080 should have been from day one but with less cuda cores.

This is the worst Ti card they have ever made, makes the 2080Ti look like good value now compared to the 2080.

Can't buy the 3060ti as I bought one for £580 (Asus dual mini OC) yesterday.. lol

Would the FE have fit in your case? I'm sure you mentioned there are only 2 cards that would fit.

At least you didn’t pay £800 like some are being sold for. Now that is crazy.

Yeah it wouldn't have but could have always taken the fan off and put a liquid cooler on potentially (and been cheaper still).

Two drops in a week and pretty easy to have got one, had a 3060ti in my basket and didnt go through with it as want a 3070 minimum really.

The 3080ti is still available.

Things are looking better.

Not even scalpers are taking up the 3080 Ti.

Mind you... on Scalpbay, FE prices keep dropping, not much interest in this card (too expensive).

 

[chroniclard]

Sounds promising, hoping to upgrade the boys machine with a 3060Ti at christmas

Definitely things are looking better. Stock is coming in. Some retailers are actually offering OK prices (£568 for my 3060ti), prob £100 over RRP but don't mind..

Ah, I hadn't thought of that. I'm just a plug n play kinda guy. I haven't levelled up to modding stuff yet

Haha me too but I was kinda desperate for a card so considered all options. Glad I went the easy fan route in the end.

In what world is £568 for a 3060ti OK prices?

It really wasn’t that long ago that £500 would get you an 80ti. £568 should get you an AIB 3070 card.

In this world.. they are going for £680-750 on eBay at the moment especially the mini variants like I got.

Heh, I'm just surprised an FE drop didn't sell out in seconds this time. It's a very positive sign. Mind you, if the kids hadn't made me go in the pool I'd have a 3060ti now. No ice cream for them today!

The price/ performance difference between the 3080 and ti is not inviting, even if I was in the market for one. I just don't see why anyone would think +£400 for a piddling increase in performance is good value.

 

[Tommy_Here]

Definitely things must be improving! For me the best 2 cards of Ampere are the 3060 Ti beating the 2080 Super for £369 and the 3080 being considerably faster than the 2080 Ti for £649..

 

[TNA]

I've just bagged a 3060Ti for the misses! I assume I'll still be able to get a 3080 (for myself) if there is another 3080 Drop?
(can't justify the 3080Ti price)

Bit concerned about the 1 a customer...

Cheers,

Careful saying such things here mate. You will be branded greedy

Good to see stock getting better.

 

[Joxeon]

Time to stop limiting it to one per customer.

So they can sell out in 5 seconds with the scalpers buying them all up again?

Greedy is when you buy one then sell it for almost 3x the price then buy another a few weeks later.
