I have an Asus TUF 3080 and love it, built like a tank and was one of the best 3080s you could buy back in 2020. Reasonably priced too (at least before scalper tax).
They do seem to be taking the mick these days though.

I had one on order with OCUK at launch, at RRP for all of about 3 secs until the website crashed and burned, along with my hopes of getting a 3080 @ RRP.

Nvidia RTX 5090 / Ti allegedly have absolutely beastly specs so you can't complain of VRAM
Nvidia is reportedly working to make the next-gen RTX 5000 series GPUs, codenamed Blackwell, an absolute monster in terms of memory specs so that users and reviewers can't complain about VRAM.

Yup they're getting insane, my Strix Z690-A Gaming WiFi D4 board cost me £230 w/cashback 2.5yrs ago and that was pretty much my limit. Gonna make it last me a fair while yet!!!! (thankfully it took a 13th/14th gen cpu so that will def help over time)

Don't worry, Gibbo will do a special at "Only £1999.95".

Maybe Nvidia will add SLI support again so you can buy two of them
I don't believe the numbers, I doubt this 5 series generation jump is going to be similar as 3090-4090 performance jump. Never know I suppose. prices are becoming ridiculous, I don't doubt the price increase, we should see RRP closing on £2000 if 70% performance jump is true. Prices are already ridiculous tbh.So the 5090 and Ti then....

I hear you, Asus tax is sometimes really really bad.
their 48" oled monitor is £1500 and its price just keeps creeping up, its just a LG C2 panel with fancy legs. You can C2 for £800, they want almost double for fancy legs and little LED.
Their G14 gaming laptops are good, its a hit and miss with them.

It's RTX: ON then
I just realised that I haven't done a Timespy run with the 4090 since purchase, not sure how that happened, so just did one with and without 80% power limit:
Within ear flicking reach of the top Ryzen...
Made it to the top 1% of something for once in my life

Forgive me father for I have sinned
In my defence:
Lol!!!
Not sure that is much of a defence tbh. I would have struggled to justify that price on release. But now? No chance.
