Anyone just given up on looking for a new GPU?

Ocuk are meant to be putting cards up for sale this week at some point. Can't wait to see the markup on them.

I'm still hopeful I'll get an MBA 6800XT for £680

Think there's more chance of me farting tenners out my ass. They'll have been watching what people have been paying for the cards and probably have them marked up accordingly. So 6800xt at around 6900xt pricing most likely.

If they don't then props to them, but I find it highly unlikely they won't cash in.

I was initially wanting the 6800XT but due to the price and scarcity of them, I went for the 3080.

If I can't get one at that price I just won't buy.

I'm just interested in what they'll be pricing them for considering they've had this stock the better part of a month and a bit, last i looked the pound is up against the dollar but that only seems to come into play when the pound is down so the prices can go up. =/ And failing that there's always some other reason to price them higher.

I bought a 3080 FE today, so yes I have now given up

Wow, how did you manage to get your hands on a 3080?

 

[michty_me]

They must have had a substantial drop today as I'm seeing quite a few people reporting of getting 3080FE's today.

Bloody hell where.

The nvidia store via a competitor who seem to be their new distributor. The fe cards aren't listed on their site though, only through the nv store once they get some supply.

It was pure luck for me. I had essentially given up a while back but had a stock discord still active and I just happened to have it open this afternoon whilst working when somebody mentioned a 3080 FE drop.
I completely fumbled purchasing it as I wasn’t ready at all, had to reset my password for the site as I forgot it and then have to re-enter my payment details after messing it up the first time and still got the order in.

I might buy a lottery ticket for this weekend.

Better to sign up to the discord stock thing if you want a chance of snagging one, that's how i got my 3070.
