30xx Series Founders Edition

You seriously believe 4080 is going to retail for less than £999, never mind £649? I'd be delighted to be proven wrong, mind you.

Are you on about the FE? You really think they will increase by £250 my guess is £700-£750 4080 FE

So, I tried to get a RTX 3080 FE and got this message "Declined Order - We could not accept your order at this time due to a problem with your payment method not matching your billing address".

I had just changed the billing address to match the address where it as being shipped too, so not sure what happened there.

It's not as easy as doing that

Agree with you. Mining dead now. So Nvidia can’t really prescalp that much.

Does it have to be someone from that address paying for the gfx card then?

Yes

 

[GhostDog1981]

Yes

Get your nan or family members to buy for you.

 

[g67575]

Fantastique.

Oh well, I tried. Nvidia has done a good job of locking it down.

 

[TNA]

Get your nan or family members to buy for you.

Exactly. That's what I did. Got friends and family happy to help

 

[g67575]

The 1 per household policy seems too strict, basically makes it impossible for my brother to get a card as well at the lower price.

 

[uscool]

Now that they don't sell instantly plenty of time to ask friend / family to order for you

 

[gpuerrilla]

And your sister, mate, uncle, cousin.

That's why people struggled to get any in the first place. Only when they locked it down people had a fighting chance was what I took from it.

They can remove it now barely anyone is interested or 90% gamers have one by now!

Don’t be salty. Life is about playing the game.

 

[g67575]

Oh well, there doesn't seem to be much difference in the purchase value for the RTX 3080 between the aib models and FE on CEX.

I got one and a fellow miner so no salt shed! The gamers will be foaming and circling like wolves if they knew!

 

[g67575]

I wonder if all the RTX 3080 FEs will be sold out by tomorrow?

Did you buy in store or online.

Let me think about it for a second .. Yes, I really do. RTX 2080 FE was £749 at launch and there was no component shortage or rampant scalping at the time. Our host said he thinks RTX 3080 was underpriced.

Also consider the nice boost on RTX 3080 ti price and how much they're going for from scalpers. Until there's enough supply that those fine.. gentlemen won't be able to buy all available items it's not going to go back to normal. Which is more or less what's going on for 3080 right now, you can buy end of life card for 2 year old launch price, yippee..

Sorry got a load of bashing from Purgatory for mining and selling the said gpus to said high street shop for god forbid a tiny profit. (that makes a scalper according to some people lmao)

They track IP address as well. So you literally need a friend or cousin to make the order. Or sit beside them and help make the order with them. You cannot touch any of your own details.
