Thanks. No monitor yet, I will buy a complete set up. Was never a PC gamer, but Nvidia hyped me big time. Definitely buying a gaming PC with an Ampere card.
It seems everybody is going for the 3080.

Me. Can't wait to play Yakuza like a dragon at 4k 60fps with all bells and whistles without worrying about the ps5 upgrade path

All good! I'm honestly stocked myself about that beastly performance.
I need a look on how RTX IO works though. 10GB seems kinda low and I had hoped to use the new system for a long time and preferably for future VR headsets too.
But that 3090 feels like the price/perf isn't that good and honestly I'm torn between just shelving it out and not having to worry or possibly having to upgrade next gen to something with more VRAM.
Those things are A-Tier cards though nonetheless obviously!

Well it's not exactly low if you think about that it's just a feature and not a system build just around it. I think it's more than enough.

Guess with all the money I'll save not getting the Series X, I'll pickup a 3080!

sorry, it's the 3090 that is $1499
and remember: true master racers never compromise on lower tech, like this obsolete card

Thanks for the confirmation, I assumed I would be but all this new technology can be a bit hard to keep up with. Now i'll continue to be sad that no preorders are happening =(

Yeah, I pre-ordered or better put an order on Czech site already, but that's handle by a distributor, so 1900USD down the drain. Oh well paying with crypto anyway, BTC is high so meh.

I just want to know that my money is taken out and all I have to do is sit back and wait to get it in the mail. Knowing i'll have to fight against a ton of other people all rushing to buy at the same time does nothing for my confidence.

I actually done it just for this reason. They are doing this because I am listed 5th in this country of residence, so I do not have to worry. Not sure what I am going to do with RTX TItan, hopefully some dumbass buys it at high price, even just for collective purposes.

Wow. The prices for the 3080 and 3070 are very aggressive. Nvidia must be pretty wary.
No chance they wouldn't raise prices if they didn't have to.

Nope. 2080, not Ti.

still the 3070 more powerful then the 2080ti is fucking funny
that's like 1350 euro's vs 519 euro's here
This is how technology progresses man.
People who bought the 2080ti at launch shouldn't complain though, they've had 2 years of top tier performance with the card and still probably don't need to upgrade for a couple of years.

3080 or PS5.
Man, I have a 2070 Super. I really want to go for a 3080 to play Cyberpunk 2077 on my 1440p ultrawide but I have a feeling my 2070 Super, with DLSS and raytracing can still manage 60 fps on high. At least that is my hope, since I would be rendering at 1080p. Considering next year will bring a new upgraded card while the PS5 is going to stay the same for at least 4-6 years, I think I am leaning to the PS5. Also have a baby now and it's easier to sneak in game time on the TV.

We're are all good, I got the 1300 watt version though. (Cheaper than the 750 on a sale)

I have old case, this was last short version in terms of wattage and EVGA is by far the best consumer oriented vendor.
Join the club, I have 3090 on order : ) I guess you are buying HW to last and 90 going to have more headroom : )

Amen to that. All of my gpu's over the years are from them. Best performance and longest warranty from them.

To be honest, you could buy a 3080 for $699 go through the card generation for 2 years and then purchase a newer better card than the 3090 for probably $800 and still spend the same price as the 3090 now. The 3090 is not a card to last based on price.

Yeah I can in Czech Republic, I think it's going to be soon. You have Alza by some chance there? They have it localy here, listing I mean.You can order already? Unfortunately i can't here in the netherlands.
shhh, Hype.
Who does not order from EVGA steal from his family.
I have broken 1050Ti and they asked me if I want a refund after 1 year of usage and I was like, can you give me.... 2080Ti with 1050Ti credit took from the price?. Oh yeah can do sir. Free shipping and they give me more money for 1050Ti than what I payed for it, because I buy it on sale. Amazing company. And I got birthday card with it, I don't planning on using it, because nobody is nerd around me, however I like it.

It googles my mind when ppl go with asus or other manufacturers. When you are spending a bit of money, night as well protect your investment!

EVGA is most often the cheapest in here, that's how I came across them. Even if they weren't EVGA is way to go.

The specs on these cards are... woo, they are up there! Man, this makes me wonder what an Exclusive game made for these cards would look like. Imagine the requirements it would be amazing to see!

EVGA for life man.
They also offer global warranty which means you can buy the card from abroad or move country and still be covered.
Some of these other brands offer absolutely trash support if you move country, literally don't give a shit and no longer recognise your purchase.

Yeah I told the wife im not buying a console this fall and she can just watch her shows on the Smart TV or keep the 1X(Got Pro and a 1x, but she prefers watching her shows on the 1x.).
I really have no interest in even looking at a PS5 until I see an exclusive that demands I purchase it.
Me too, 3080 is looking tempting. And I will be helping Phil Spencer as he does not want to sell Xbox Series X ...
But, 5 months in, they might release 3080 Super.
Nintendo + PS5 + PC ....
