We’re selling at a loss at £1099 we can’t afford another £300 loss on top lol.

You'll be left with no option but to drop the price to these levels if they don't sell

I'd imagine official price cuts will be coming in the new year, probably down to 1k to match the XTX though that is still more than I'd be willing to pay for one.

The fact that OCUK are having to sell at a loss just weeks after release tells the story of a failed product.

I was just about to pull teh trigger on a 4090 untill i checked the specs for a ek waterblock. Depth of the waterblock is deeper then my O11D XL has to spare gonna wait and see what happens with AMD now

EK-Pro 4090 block with the terminals on the end and a cablemod 90 degree power cable adapter might work?

I think Nvidia and the retailers thought that these would sell out regardless of the price after what happened over the past 2 years but it turns out without crypto mining these GPUs are just not worth what they thought they would be.

They still did the job to help upsell 200K+ 4090's so I doubt he is too bothered. Lol

A great watch, don't get ripped of @TNA

All in all, unless we see more of must play/good games in coming months, I am firmly waiting until price drops or/and next gen now.

Exactly. Nothing on the horizon that makes me want to pay silly money to upgrade over my 3080 Ti.

Now if Nvidia drop the 4080 to £700 or there abouts I may reconsider just to have something new and shiny. But honestly with all this silly pricing this just feels like another unexciting Turing generation to me. So if they hit that price in 12+ months I won't bother as it will be too late by then as might as well wait for 5000 series.

Considering the 4070 Ti is $899 for the founder edition according to reports I doubt the 4080 is going to drop much.

Well they won't be getting my money then. Simples

I thought AMD may have wanted my money as it has been a few years now, but nope. They went silly with pricing too. Can't blame them though, so many people happy to buy at such prices.

Perhaps you’re developing a new type of 3D rendered sonar to improve your fishing capability?

Well it sort of sounds genuine at least.

It is 100% a thing, 3d olex with seabed hardness discrimination.
£1200 is still too much even getting the vat back.

£800 and you've got me buying right away.

1yr warranty special coming right up!!!

muon · 24 Dec 2022 at 14:17

What I dont get is that a lot of cases are built for a max of 320mm cards.

Why have nearly all manufacturers gone slightly above that?

With Ampere you still had most cards below that. 4080FE is only 304mm.

No FE 4070ti

Some sources suggest there is and some suggest otherwise. The msrp has been set at $899 from recent reports.

I'd be interested in the 4080 "White Elephant" edition when that's released...

Oh wait, it's been out for months...

Major774 · 24 Dec 2022 at 15:38

The UK is doing well to stick it to Nvidia. 12 days of in stock 4080 FE’s, tomorrow is Christmas…

From the UK… Merry Christmas to you Jensen… you sucker.

I'm sure he's deeply upset that all the potential 4080 buyers are buying 4090s instead :cry:

Probably is, imagine the margins on a 3060 size die selling for $1200, the lack of 4090 supply is all telling.

Even the 4090s are all in stock so I think majority of people willing to spend over £1000 on a card are mostly done now.

Oddly the thing that's selling the best right now seems the 7900XTX so maybe the anti nvidia sentiment that the 4080 caused may not just have cost sales but also damaged the mindshare of the brand.

I doubt it, probably not even a minor dent.
