NVIDIA 4000 Series

So no stock, can you actually order it? If you can trust me buy it!
Even based on official cost and lets just say for keep sake the pound hits 1.16 next week at £350 less that is still essentially making no margin, so once again get it ordered if you cannot order it then it explains everything just advertising a fake a price, if you can order it do so as they won't be making any money.

We've had more Zotac land today, booked at a rate of 1.155, prices have been updated online and are now from £1799.

Simple fact is our cost dictates our sell price, we pay more, you pay more, we pay less you pay less. :)


We are £100 cheaper than competitors on that Zotac card, so are they now scalpers too? Not at all, people fail to grasp that in times of shortage sometimes you pay way over odds to get stock.
Also this is a $2000 product near as dammit so for like every point move in pound strength it effect the landed cost by £30. So if the pound hits 1.12 tomorrow and stock lands it basically cost £100 more than today.

Our Zotac stock landed today, our system has booked at a very strong pound and as such all the Zotac cost have come down to as low as £1799, upto around £100 cheaper than competitors, they are not scalping that is just impact of currency rate.
You can order it still and its the Tuf OC card as well
 
Thanks gibbo. Like I said I don't blame ocuk. I think once the AMD cards hit the market demand for the Nvidia card will stabilise. Probably April/may we may see some prices drop. I'm waiting anyway with the whole melting connectors thing.
 
I'll nip over to Moscow and sort Putin out mate :D
This has nothing to do with Russia. Putin didn't force the UK, Europe or the US to print huge amounts of money the last decade which is the main reason we had inflationary pressures since before the war. The US Fed policy in increasing interest rates, because they printed too much money last year, is contributing to so many currencies falling versus the dollar because it is the global reserve currency.

The only thing putin affects is gas, oil, grain and fertiliser because Russia exports a lot of it too. But the UK should be much less affected in gas and oil. We also grow most of our own wheat, but have agricultural worker shortages because of Brexit.

Plus the UK has it's own gasfields and lng terminals. We never really used much Russian gas. But what we did do is privatise it all so the companies export it and sell it to us at market prices.

Then we shut down most of our own gas storage and ignored recommendations to double it a decade ago. Hence we can't take advantage of cheaper gas during the summer.

Nobody forced us to replace coal and nuclear plants with gas power stations or stopped us building new nuclear power plants earlier.

The government is blaming foreign countries for 20 years of Conservative/Labour failure in energy provisions. We shouldn't be affected in any way as badly as European countries like Germany, Hungary, etc with no gas fields and dependence on Russian fuel since the 1970s.

They released a driver update a few weeks ago that improved performance on DX12 games considerably.
I had a relook, the improvement's greater as you move down the product stack.. i wonder if there's still some more room. Is that what got Jensen more confident about his prospects

Edit: I think I got confused by shades of green it's the other way round

All bloody Putin's fault. £ was at $1.30-1.40 before his madness!

Literally nothing to do with Putin, it was Brexit then covid, Brexit saw the £ crash HARD, I remember it was £1.41 to $1 just before the 2015 Brexit vote then it dived, and has continued to do so as the Torys constantly messed up for years on end, now were at more or less 1:1, pathetic, imagine had we been sane and stayed in the EU our graphics card would be hundreds cheaper now!.

Little fact check for you, welcome ;)

Without getting into a long discussion, and whilst I agree with much of what you say, £ was 1.30-1.40 to the $ last year when all of this was true as well.
The main reason for £/Euro crashing this year, is that prospects for the European economy are much worse as a result of Putin's madness, eg much more expensive oil/gas, cost of sanctions on us (no more cheap raw materials etc) from Russia.
Yes we have some of our own oil/gas but we still have to pay international prices for that. The oil companies make a fortune and the gov has got some of that back in windfall taxes.
Also yes the Fed aggresively increasing interest rates helps the $ too, hence recent BOE action, but we still have lower rates than US.
