Bought a Gigabyte NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8GB Gaming OC that was amazingly in stock. Paid over the odds. 620 Pounds, but at least I'll be able to play some 1440p games on my new PC over the Christmas.

Ridiculous, you have to do without unless you get it at RRP, and spend all the time you wait grumbling about prices, availability. Then when they are RRP you need to drone on about the next Navi release or Nvidia release and how it will be better. Admonish anyone that pays even a euro over the odd just cause they want to play their games and have nice new things....you are a amateur at this graphics card malarkey. :pac::pac::pac::pac::pac:

Enjoy the card, the market will set the price and if you can afford it and want it get it.

With the 6800XT going for €900 Id rather bite my lip and get a 3090 with all the loverly GDDR6x memory TBH.

Yeah thought that was odd, got my evga 3080 xc gamingblack for around €700 at launch

That's pretty steep. The MSRP of a 3070 FE.

I wouldn't spend any more than €400 on 1 at this stage. Even that is steep. €350 would be a fair price.

LineConsole

For someone who’s out of the loop, what’s a good price on a used RTX 2070 super? Looking at one for 499 Pounds Sterling which seems a bit steep.

BloodBath

Second hand market is the way to go if you want mid range or lower.

ShadowHearth

Its kind of a joke right now. Definitely one of the worst years I remember for gpus. There only handful high end cards, that scalpers taking away and on top of that retailers scalping too. No mid range gpus out at all. You can't even get old generation ones at this point as they are out of stock or extremely over priced.

Are you nuts? Are ye all paying massively over the msrp for these things?

Dont mind paying maybe 50-70 euro over msrp but not playing into the hands off scumbag tactics that AMD seem to be implying with the new 6000 Series.

Managed to grab an ASUS 3070 TUF on Amazon UK for around €663. Won't be arriving until 22nd December, but I'm glad the nightmare of trying to get a card is finally over.

I ordered my Evga 3080 from alternate.de last week and it arrived today. I was kind of surprised - I got the invitation to buy and they said it would ship within two working days which it did.

I'm glad i managed to grab the 3080 in the end... Still haven't cancelled the 3070 as thought I could just sell it and recover the cost, whereas I might loose on the exchange rate or something.

In September GBP was 110 to the euro, now it is 112. So the chances are you'd actually win about 12 euro on the exchange rate (if you used a card with good FX).

I ordered a 3070 on Scan on release day, was 39th in the Queue, this is the current position:

LN110436 - Zotac NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 8GB Trinity Ampere Graphics Card
Your current queue position is 27.

And did it actually spill over 8G?

All this talk of VRAM. Has anyone actually had an issue with 8GB being a bottleneck?

It's not much of an issue atm unless you play at high resolution with improved texture packs in a handful of games like Microsoft flight sim and doom eternal.

Texture budgets increase over time. We've seen in the past many times where cards with low vram have ran into problems a year or 2 after release. This year will see more games that want more than 8. Spending 550+ on a card in late 2020 with only 8gb is madness imo.

If you upgrade every year it's not much of a problem. If you're buying a highish end card to last 2-3 years it will be a problem.

10gb, still terrible. Especially as it's the regular gddr6 and not the x. Why not 12gb? **** why not even 16?

If the 3070ti had 12-16gb, better performance than the 3070, closer to the 3080, and was priced around 600-650 I'd buy it np instead of a 6800.

Tweet I saw was GDDR6X but who knows how reliable that is.

It's strongly rumoured that the 3070ti will have 10GB of VRAM - is this enough for 1440p raytracing (with DLSS) and VR?

I'm convinced* AMD's answer to DLSS will become the standard - will DLSS see wider support than it currently has? Will nVidia cards be able to support the (presumably open) AMD standard?

Wondering people's thoughts / links?

Man I feel stupid for not buying a €500 RTX 2080 Ti when the 3000 were revealed :pac:

Probably they will support the standard DirectML API but probably DLSS will be better in terms of performance and/or quality.

Anyone chanced one on Currys? Few popping up but think I may be preordering.

Saw that but at least one of them earlier was for in-store collection only. Even if it was available for delivery, they only deliver to the UK and I don't think I'd risk a 3080 going through Parcel Motel. I'm in the same boat with a monitor I want to pick up too
