Still a rip off?

[Core09]

Bought a rtx 3060ti Asus dual mini OC graphics card. Cost me around £680 brand new, imported from Japan... Which I thought was a good price based on eBay and such.

You may be like that's 3080 prices for a 3060ti.. yep. I bought a MSI ventus 3080 1 week after launch for £670.

However this is for an ITX build in a small case (jonsbo Bo 100) and there are only two 3060tis that fit in it, the Asus dual mini and evga xc gaming and that's the best performance you can get.

I feel like these kinds of cards (itx) will always be expensive, and so £680 today is probably going to be the best price for a long time.. due to the demand unless someone disagrees and thinks I've gone mad paying so much??? Also pretty hard to tell what the RRP is on these things anyway.

Probably about £180 over paid if you are happy then thats what counts.

Just noticed its got a BIOS update for resize-BAR which version does the card currently have ?

Found the RRP its £443 although I doubt it would have got the price in normal times so £680 is not a bad price definitely not double.

Thanks. I should be getting it next week so will be able to check then, cheers for letting me know regarding the bios, I usually don't check it for GPUs, will see what version it's on. This is the LHR version so probably like it'll be on v3.

£240 difference is a lot but not massive.. will be using this until 4000 series comes out.

I've always been into 4k gaming but now dropping down to 1440p so shouldn't see much difference in terms of fps!
