Looks like I'll be picking up my 4090 for just over 1k in 3 months time at this rate.

Where are you? LDLC don’t ship to the UK, EU only.

Eh? The French site ones are available, you just can't buy them from countries outside of France, Belgium, and Spain.

It's because they don't allow you to buy from UK on the EU stores.

i can't even add the FE to my basket to get to the buying stage, would it not let me go that far?

hey if i'm wrong then i'm wrong

, i just don't understand why europe would be any different in selling out of FE's? either way, i will have a sportsmans bet with any of you that when the next UK 4090 FE drop happens they sell out in under 10 minutes, any takers

?

I could add it to my basket and go to the checkout page, so if you can't now then they have likely just sold out.

I don't get what point you are trying to make, we all obviously know that they sell out fast as hell especially in the UK.

I can buy here in France. So its an issue on your end.

This is also the first time I've seen FE cards in stock here. I can buy AiB card though.

As you see france, italy and spain are all allowing you to add to cart but you will not be able to check out as they are for them EU countries only and other countries in the region to buy. Not sure why you can't add them to basket but that's not the sites fault as I just did it now and as you see all in stock to buy.

Guys chill. The 4090 van driver did the EU today.. He will currently be heading towards Calais to finally make it to our shores.

If you look out of your windows late tonight you may be lucky enough to see him. He is over weight, big grey beard wearing a red suit.

I guess the lines around the block was the returns queue.

£1450 for a 4080 when a 4090 starts at £1699 and has considerably more performance? lol

I bet the Asus Strix 4080 will be closer to £1600 as well. Another £99 gets you a 4090 FE

Harlequin · 31 Oct 2022 at 17:15

Been reading the 4080 16GB is listed on a uk etailer for £1450?

Absolutely agreed, the AIB's need to wake up and realise no matter how many fans, VRM's, and dylithium crystals you add to a 4080, a 4090 will still crush and decimate it.

I don't look after blocks but last time I heard Rob mention them I think the ETA was around end of November.

Ouch.

The ASUS STRIX 4080 16GB has already been seen at over 2k EUROS and tweaktown.com article called NVIDIA's new GeForce RTX 4080 16GB listed in the UK for $1680+ states the following, so read that as the ASUS STRIX 4080 16GB at £1950...

NVIDIA's official MSRP on the upcoming GeForce RTX 4080 16GB graphics card is $1199 USD (£1269 in the UK) so the early UK retailer listings are already $200+ over the official MSRP. There are also custom models of the GeForce RTX 4080 16GB graphics card by UK retailers for as high as £1950 (which works out to around $2264 USD or so).

Any card that exceeds £1599 we probably won't list, it is just bonkers, 4090 is a vastly quicker card at £1699 (FE model) so no AIB should be even remotely considering higher.

Our aim will be to have cards at £1249 upwards and no card should be more than £1499, any brands with MSRP's above £1500 we will take very little stock or consider not listing at all, it is way to close to 4090 and that is a card that is vastly superior.

i don't mean to be a party pooper in this lets discredit nvidia w@nkathon party but when i go to buy a 4090 FE on the foreign nvidia websites i can't. there's a buy button but once pressed it can't complete the action i bet they're sold out like they are in the UK and USA, why would europe be any different. Bet they sell out in minutes on the next UK drop.

True but what % of that is scalpers.

The hard reality is no matter what the price of the 4090 or 4080 they are a rip off born out of the need for Nvidia to replace lost mining profits, which was another two finger salute to PC gamers.

Ok tried via a VPN to the french fe store, shows OOS. Tried with no vpn, green add to basket button is there.
Guess we'll only know for sure when UK drops how long they last.

Still in stock and can be added to basket. Guessing will be there tomorrow too, unless they pull them to make it look like they finally sold out.

Even at £1249 it's still about £600 more than it should be.
