Please avoid Ohio. Good luck otherwise.I don't like you.. I'm a weak person and you are like literally forcing me to go for the 3090 next week
Yeah, that's the one I'm going (probably going) for as well.

awww dang it. i also got a 650W PSU from Corsair (RMx 650W). I dont want to buy a new PSU
if my card really comes tomorrow (still doubt it) ill tell you how it went. My CPU is a 7700k @ 1,35V. I doubt to hit over 500W combined in gaming.

Are you planning on stealing? Am I reading this correctly?

so the 20GB version of 3080, would that be only from other companies like GIGABYTE, EVGA? or would Nvidia also make one to sell too? I might wait and get one of if that's within the year.
I really hope I can get one before CP2077 launch if possible. I've been using my i7 4770/GTX780 desktop for so long now (6 years I think) and I really hope I can do an upgrade for CP2077 and a few of the other games I have.

Don't suppose you have another PSU and one of these around, do you?
I'm using these 2 6+2 PCIE connectors for the RTX3080 earlier so there should be no mistake on it .
Just wondering could it be that I didn't uninstalled the Radeon driver , but it should at least POST .

Missed the latest batch. Oh well. I'll get one when I get one.

We're speaking hypothetically of course. I've actually never asked my card for a chargeback. But you're right, it's theft.

That’s below the recommended wattage. If your PSU isn’t dead then your computer is doing you a favor by not turning on.

Yes, only from AIBs. Nvidia will only sell 10 GB Founders Edition ones and probably aren't making many of those in the first place.

Strange, only shows you have 1 8 pin PCI-E connected to the 3080 while I'm sure there should be at least 2.

So I "bought or preordered" an EVGA 3080 FTW Ultra, so if Nvidia does a 20GBP in 3 months I can use the step-up hopefully. Or not. At this point since most games are.... crossgen (lol) I might just wait till 2022 and maybe 10gbs can tide me over

Yes, that's a good choice, but make sure to register for step-up ASAP! Don't wait for card announcements.

Its definitely a possibility. Plug old card back in use diplay driver uninmstaller to wipe off old drivers.

That's not the 3080 , I've swapped the old radeon back so that I can continue to use the PC

Aha, thought it was weird that the connector was at the end while pictures show it should be around the middle for the Zotac 3080.

Overclockers stated: "Something more official will be posted later but in short demand is vastly beyond any prediction and supply not enough and were now working with each board partner to try and get shipping schedule and quantities going into October, November and December which we are still waiting on."
also
"I think anyone after 14:05 won't see a card in September, those before 15:00 maybe October but until we get shipment data for October we are in the dark, that information is requested but it seems it won't be available to the graphics card manufacturers until end of this month. "
What a joke lmao. They actually took people's money on this. My order said arriving 23rd Sept too on the page!

I am one of those people. Honestly if I get it before November I'll be fine. If they confirm it won't come till December or later than I'll cancel. This whole launch is an absolute disaster.

I'm considering taking off work and camping out Wednesday at a Micro Center for the 3090. This entire launch is making me lose my mind. After setting up notifications, refreshing everything constantly, getting very little sleep, etc, I take 20 minutes to drive to get to work and boom amazon US preorders go up when I'm on the freeway, gone by the time I can take next exit and pull over to try to order.

Make sure you call your Microcenter to ask if they plan on selling them that day, first come first serve...OR, as another poster experienced, they are passing out vouchers the night before (without telling anyone).

The thing I don't understand is if Nvidia is coming out with a 20gb version... Why wouldn't they try to manufacturer as many of the 10gb versions as possible first (i.e. have plentiful stock at launch)?
I mean they're already screwing their customers, and they're going to eventually have to reveal the higher VRAM version. They're not doing themselves any favors lollygagging. Unless the higher VRAM version isn't until early next year.

LOL, yeah, I'm in Norway so we don't have to fight over the one 3090 they are selling in Ohio
I also think/thought the 3090 is roughly 20% or so faster than the 3080, especially looking at the specs.. ..But logically the 3090 must always be the fastest card over whatever 3080 model, so if the 3090 is only ~20% faster, there's not really a large enough slot to fit a 3080Ti in between..? I'm getting a headache..

That's unfortunate however always try to look at the bright side. Your PC could explode and burn your house
, so I say you are a lucky man.BTW. I had similar issue many years ago. I have changed different PSU and motherboard as well and then the same problematic GPU booted and worked perfectly.

Ugh I really shouldn't watch this because I know my order (even though they've taken the money) will be cancelled.
If you check the no stock email they sent out (I got one) there is a refund link which states a refund will only take a couple of days.
Hopefully I get a refund in time to catch a 3090.

Happens all the time.
eBay/PP will usually side with the buyer, unless you are of a high enough level to get ‘Concierge Service’ which gives you access to the call centre and you can explain the situation and have a hope in recovering the money.
But doing a chargeback could have adverse effects for you credit file wise, as it’ll show, and some credit companies mark that as a negative.

You'll get charged when they ship.
I’m assuming you’ve re-installed your previous GPU to make sure your system is functioning?

I know but some people are reporting they have had preauth charges. Maybe it's country-specific.

I'm thinking we'll see something that fits the 3080Ti slot. It won't be better than the $1500 3090, which if we presume(and it's probably a safe bet) is about 20% better than the 3080 than naturally we'll see something roughly perform 10% or so better than the 3080 with more memory. It could just as easily be the same 3080 with 12Gb of VRAM which doesn't sound like a lot, but it gives the 3080 a lot more breathing room for it's longevity. Now key point is price, if they can give a 12-16gb 3080(Ti) at $850-$950 they'd easily sale that in droves with people who don't quite fit with or want/need/see the value in the 3090.LOL, yeah, I'm in Norway so we don't have to fight over the one 3090 they are selling in Ohio

I think we'll see either a 3080Super or Ti with more memory.

Like I said, to begin with, I am not going to question the performance a 2080 TI delivers because just like you said, it was, it is and even with 3000-Series GPUs it still will be a very good card when it comes to performance!
I mean as far as we know, the 3070 is hovering around it and only the 3080 and 3090 are truly stronger, so it still very much is relevant for gaming even as of today!
And with recently I'd say around Summer. If you got the Card day 1 then obviously you had 2 years of top tier performance, so that is not a waste in any way!
But around summer rumors began to float around and if you follow PC trends you know that GPUs typically release every 2 years so you knew this year will have new release.
AMD I think even confirmed before NVIDIA that RDNA2 GPUs will release 100% in 2020.
People buying 2080tis for retail price that late in its life cycle are most likely either people that didn't bother to research at all or people who have no knowledge in PC gaming and just bought it maybe for their son or brother or so, both kind of deals are if you think about it bad as we have the 3000 Series now.
Those would make the majority of people that bought a 2080 TI this summer as everybody who has a disposable income high enough to buy a 2080 TI regardless of checking up possible new cards coming up soon would have done so already in the beginning of its lifecycle and not just now. Neither would have people whose cards have died recently as they'd just pick up a cheap replacement card to get through to 3000 Series.
So it all comes down to either ignorance or lack of knowledge. I don't blame those without the knowledge as maybe they did the research but since it wasn't for them they just went with "what's best now", but that doesn't change the fact that it is a bad deal.

Amazon in America doesn't pre-auth charges, so yeah, it's probably region specific.

You say that, but German Amazon came through for me on the PS5 pre-order front.LOL, yeah, I'm in Norway so we don't have to fight over the one 3090 they are selling in Ohio
They might have room laterally for features for the TI, but I'm just using caveman think on this one. Biggest card is best card and this big card.

The one piece of hardware you should always have a back up its a power supply. Granted my PC is almost always on but every 3 or so years they will just die. All corsair.

Newegg's site and auto-notification system are fucked.
Some GTX 3080s, under full load, are topping out at nearly 400 watts.
PC Gamer had their 3080 drawing 386 watts:

FYI, decided to try a new one called Distill. It allows you to set a timer for a page and the extension checks the page however often for any changes (e.g., the 'buy' button suddenly appears). It'll then message you or produce an audio/video notification.

I bit the bullet and got a 1200w PSU last year. The stuff in the enthusiast space is only getting more power hungry over time, so I wanted some overhead. It's nice having it, not getting it.Some GTX 3080s, under full load, are topping out at nearly 400 watts.
