Poll: BROWSE THE NVIDIA RTX 4000 SERIES AT OcUK !!
All browse, no buy
October 12th at 2pm, should have plenty of stock too, just managed to buy several hundred from one AIB, looking good on the OC models.
Just no. They would make you pay £100pm to have a new GPU when it's released.

I think it's more likely after physicist Andre-Marie Ampere. Kind of fits more with Lovelace, Pascal and Turing no?Wow, learn something new everyday, just found out my 3080Ti is named Ampere after some Greek god

Prices are normalised and then it's too late same as happened with loot boxes, pay2win and DLC
I'll wait I'd rather get ripped of by AMD than give Nvidia my money

You taking a mick aren't you, just spoke with my father who works for EVGA . Cards are already on the shelves .
I've secured several hundred cards already, so should be pretty good as with pricing and economic situation we don't expect demand to be quite the monumental crazy levels it was on 3080 10G.
Just need a better job according to Dave
Just cut out the Morning Coffees and Netflix duh

Yes they will come from MSI and Gigabyte for sure. Be over £2000 for sure as well.

That PNY 4080 16GB looks boss, and a new design for them. PNY rarely comes with new designs and have been using their Xlr8 coolers for generations -- telling of the new power requirements AIBs will need to have accommodated with their cooling solutions.
That said, who the heckfire are going to buy these things? I have the means, but there's a level the pricing on these have overshot by a near-hilarious amount. And the absurd pricing is compounded by the fact current gen cards can handle all games out there, with legroom in most cases, and there are no games in the pipeline that look like they will push they envelope. Again, I'm just confounded what nV are thinking if they want to sell units. Or, maybe that's the point... they don't want to sell volume for the time being of the new gen while they allow the market to suck up the oversupply of Ampere cards.
Waiting with baited breath for the 7-series. If it hits even 30% performance improvement in same price bracket, I'm sold. Lisou, don't let us down!

It's going to be very dull on the forums if the cards don't all get scalped this yearThe drama is always juicy
Scalpers will be extremely brave if they want to attempt to scalp on cards that cost close to 2k in retail, if the pound increasing alone could wipe £100's of the price, if I was a scalper I'd not be investing such large sums of money for such small potential returns or even losses.
OcUK will do the usual attempts to stop scalping but hopefully it won't be an issue this time with the cost of these products and the lesser demand due to the economic situation along with no mining demand as well, we are hoping for a much smoother launch.
