Without going back through pages, are initial stock levels for 4090 going to be just as bad as 3080?

No - nothing like 3080 release. 3080 was £650 - 4090's will be £1800 for the cheapest AIB cards, founders being £1679 I believe. The price difference alone means far less people will be interested, also this time Crypto mining is practically dead compared to before.

Same. I have a mate there and he's way better off than that statement makes out. Yes I think you pay for healthcare etc. but the wages reflect it (earn more).

Depends on the industry. RoI is a small economy so even relatively small deficits in a certain professions lead to skyrocketing wages.
If you are in IT, you will probably earn more in RoI(IT wages in the UK are pretty crap, you can earn same money in Central Europe)
Banking is on another level in the UK though. Same for law professions.

Either pales in comparison to the US. I could easily make 3x more money in US doing same job(quant)

It's absolutely dead. And there's so much more stock, or so I'm hearing on the grapevine, there's no incentive for scalpers. Pretty sure everyone who wants one day one will get one day one.

Such a waste considering no FE card in any generation has ever outperformed the majority of AIB cards

That's not entirely true. While FE cooler might not be the best, pcb and power delivery is only matched by the very top level AIB. Comparable 3090 FE will be more power efficent on same V and MHz than Strix for example. Which, if you are using watercooling can lead to comparable gains on same TDP

4090FE with it's 600W power limit is exceptionally well priced compared to AIB, where only OC specs will have 600W PL. So if you are considering watercooling, FE is the one to get.
