I have a bequiet 850w platinum. Thinking about 3090ti or 4090 as I know platinum will have greater scope than gold but even then still pushing it you reckon?

At this point no-one knows as the official specs are not released. We have months to wait.

The 3090ti should be OK with a 850watt psu as I've done several psu calculates.
Reassuring to know, thank you.

Theres hardly any difference with gold and platinum psu’s.
I think gold to titanium is only 14% or less.
mate you are spot on, no wonder in the used market you can get a 3090 for 800, yes when it was 2000 only a few months ago
the scalpers have cards they cant get rid of, they will need to sell at a loss
the miners have mass inventory that they need to sell because like you say, crap returns and sky high utility prices
There so many sealed 3080s and 3090s that has been accumulated by the miners and scalpers that they are selling in the used market
This is only good news for the gamers, well for now, and looking good for the 4000 series release
The flooded market for 30 series will have little demand for 4000 series cards, yes?

In all honesty if I can't get a 40 series card but it brings the prices down on the 30 series massively to what I'm happy to pay then km happy.. imo the 30 series cards are still plenty fast!
I just looked at and loads of 3090 have sold for around £650 to £690...Wow there prices have dropped fast

Was expected tbf, just wait till the 4070 gets announced
That's what's kept my money in the bank. I want to see what the 7700XT and the 4070 have to offer. I'd prefer the AMD card but if the 4070 is obviously better I'd bite. The last Nvidia GPU I had was a 1070 MSI, nice solid GPU.

This.. I know my sig says I've got a 3070 but that was sold on as I didn't use it much and I got offered a pretty penny for it..

now rocking a GTX 1080 classified but I'm really excited to see what the 4070 offers... what are we thinking perf wise? I'm looking at rtx 3090 Ti benches and -/+ 5-10% worse/best case scenario.. what do you think?If going by history, I'm expecting a 4070 to match rasterization perf. of a 3090/ti and to comfortably beat it in ray tracing all with less power consumption.This..

That will be exciting for a £500? Card? Im hoping no more than £500.. I would love to play my childhood favourite quake 2 maxed out at 4k no resolution scale and hold 60fps the 3070 couldn't do it and from what I've seen the 3090 just doesn't cut the mustard
I'm hoping it'll be £500 too but just can't see it, not with inflation/cost of living now, expecting around £550/600 for the 4070

Loads of listings for £800-900.
Well known high street retailers selling for £790-800 second hand.

£650 to £690 is significantly lower than £800-£900.
Yeah those are way to cheap to be legit sales and anyone who thinks otherwise is not thinking very logically. There is no good reason for anyone to panic sell 3090's for well below average prices now with the 4000 series launch still around 4-5 months away.
