The second bit is correct, first bit subjective.

I've been hunting for a 3080 for a little while now. I might take a break from it since I still have my 1080ti and I'd need to upgrade my processor (7740x 
) and mobo. Might jump on the AMD train the time.

Because doing so would be financially irresponsible and unnecessary, by definition.

Glad to be confirmed even more so than the hours of research I did last night lol. I was back and forth between this one and the new LG one that a lot of people are recommending. What pushed me over was the build quality of the AW and also the warranty of Dell.

Keep the 3080, 3090 ain't worth it for the small power increase and fuck 8k for now, it's irrelevant

Or you can wait 6 more months, and pray Amd delivers.
So that Nvidia will repackage the 3090 as 3080Ti and sell it 30-40% cheaper.

True...

This isn't a brag; it's a statement that's relevant to this thread. Also, everyone in this thread already knew that I've wanted to order an RTX 3090. The PNY model of the RTX 3080 that corresponds to the PNY RTX 3090 that I ordered is reviewed in the foreign-language video below, though it's under a different brand name (Gainward).stealth brag

Or sell the 3080 and upgrade, second hand market for gpus right now is insane. I paid 300$ cad for my 1660 super and they're going for 250$ used still.Or you can wait 6 more months, and pray Amd delivers.

Lol, almost thought this was my rig. Everything is the same in appearance (idk if that’s 570x) except for the card obviously. Are those x16 sticks or x8’s? Is that the 570x case too?Ask and ye shall receive!
Can’t wait to get a 3080, I mean 2080TI will still be solid but I can use the extra FPS in GTAV with “RTGI” to make it a locked 30. Yeah, it’s taxing at 4K.

Nvidia's ampere have this tech (which they call Reflex) to reduces system latency, but the games have to release a patch for it. COD, Apex, Fortnite, and Valorant will be taking advantage of it and others will follow soon I'm sure. This is pretty incredible and it gives a massive edge for competitive play.

This 3rd party amazon seller shipped the MSI Ventus OC 3090 today!
(Still prefer the Strix with its 2 HDMI and 3 8-pin power)

Putting that beast inside a coffin? That's an insult!
Jokes aside, the cooling system from the FE can't work properly in such a small environment.

This video proves that the cards are absolutely fine no matter which capacitor configuration are used.
Rushed launch equals teething problems.
If I had a card that crashed before the new driver or even afterwards I'd be find with reducing the clocks by 10, 20 30 etc mhz as the fps difference is minute.
I still do believe I'd choose a card with at least two MLCC capacitors though.

Dell is selling the PNY 3090 for $1900 and with a November 30 ship date at the earliest.
They were also selling the PNY 3080 for $200 over MSRP. With shipping it came out to right around $1k. At that point you might as well just push to try to get a FE 3090 for $500 more.

I see GameStop sold the 3080 for a few seconds. I never knew they sold graphics cards.

Ordered at 7 different stores. 6 of them had delivery dates at the time of the order. 5 charged directly.
Inside of one and a half weeks, all of them changed the dates multiple times and all ended up with an unknown delivery date.
What a mess. (Germany, FYI)
At least they're slowly refunding the money.

I would not even have enough cash on hands for so many preorders. The delivery date of my TUF now also changed from October 9th to "unknown". :/

I didn't order them at the same time, but throughout the last 2 weeks. So money left and came back all the time
Curious why all these dates got changed. I had one order with a delivery for this week, one directly at launch, the rest with dates between 8th and 20th of October. All changed to "unknown".
Sounds like something happened to the supply chain. Weird that so many shops had delivery dates and now don't anymore.
