RTX 3080 - Order Megathread

Hasney · Sep 17, 2020

Seeing so many Tweets about stock issues on eBuyer after paying, while my order is still order placed. They're claiming they're going live at 2pm, so I have no idea what the fuck is going on anymore. Still in limbo!

pavaloo · Sep 17, 2020

so a lot of outlets are doing the typical "free watchdogs + geforce now" bundle - does anyone expect amazon to do the same? have they ever?

It's an Nvidia offer, so I imagine the code will be included with all the cards, IIRC they have been in the past

What's the deal with Amazon pages with high prices. If one were to order these could they get a pre-order in advance with amazon bringing the price down later? For example: https://www.amazon.co.uk/EVGA-GeFor...?dchild=1&keywords=EVGA&qid=1599814949&sr=8-1

Wondering about this also! Would be good to get an order in and then have the price adjust after...

Never mind!

Your order for MSI GeForce RTX 3080 10GB GDDR6X GAMING X TRIO Ampere Graphics Card is being processed and payment has been taken successfully.

This means your order is moving through our warehouse and will soon be passed over to our couriers for delivery.

Hoping for a Founders today :)

Hoping for anything. My poor 1060 is crying these days.

I pre ordered a PS5, but might cancel that if I can snag one of these.

Fuck it, I'm gonna buy vouchers for Currys and hope I get one. Either get a card or stuck with £700 of vouchers and waiting for a restock 😬

BraXzy · Sep 17, 2020

Is there consensus on which aftermarket cards or manufacturers are usually best for performance / thermals / reliability? Without spending an extra £1-200 on top?

Scan are terrible. Definitely don't use them. In fact, that goes for everyone in here. Don't use Scan, ok? Definitely not. Nope. No-sir-ee.

(Scan are actually brilliant)

You had me in the first half haha!

NovumVeritas said:
Yeah that sucks somehow. Lets see how it plays out.

Yeah, lets see. I have about three cards in mind, the main one I was interested in was an EVGA card but I don't know if it will be available.

Hi! Just woke up, anything new in Germany/ Europe?

Anjoys · Sep 17, 2020

I'm 20 minutes away from a currys pc world, I wonder if I should just go down there and see if I can buy one in-person...

xyla · Sep 17, 2020

Also interested in this - gh.de has a few listed but the prices are inflated I think.
Gonna try and grab a FE today even if I'm more in the market for a 3070 with a WQHD setup. Would undervolt a little since that seems to deliver good results still.

Darktalon · Sep 17, 2020

I think EVGA accidentally priced these as Australian xD

Gushu · Sep 17, 2020

You can preorder some EVGA cards on amazon.de for the nice of just 2600€. link
Maybe the price will be adjusted at launch?

I will probably go for an MSI 3080, I have a 2080 Super and I like their fans.

Indeed.

I have a glass window, and the FE is the only card I've seen that you can look at without cringing.

Yeah, glad I'm awake now, time to prepare some tabs! :D

These listings are more than 12h old, I don't think inflating the price like that is allowed in Germany. #thatsillegal!

Etrian Darkness · Sep 17, 2020

Thanks. Still not sure about what card to get. Hoping reviews for 3rd party go up today before release.

I really wish it was as easy to get a 3080 as it was to pre-order a PS5.

Cobra · Sep 17, 2020

Hopefully, I can get one. haven't had any luck with the PS5.

Ventus

Amazon + Caseking, Alternate and Mindfactory, yes. Notebooksbilliger has bad customer service, I don't buy from them.

FirewalkR · Sep 17, 2020

Gonna try to snag a 3080 FE, but if this is anything like PS5... no chance lol.

Same here. 3 hours left!

Greenlock · Sep 17, 2020

Looking at any card below 315mm. Distributor for nvidia in sweden is shite though so FE feels kinda uncertain. Any ideas on the quality on the other cards?

YonderOne · Sep 17, 2020

For Australian friends: PLE also confirms 11PM AEST for sale launch and they're also hosting a livestream beforehand with a 3080 Eagle up for grabs? (Starts at 10:45PM AEST.)

Also this (don't know if this is indicative of how many they're getting or not):

Lashley · Sep 17, 2020

Come on NVIDIA UK gimme a founders

eBuyer, the ones that went up at midnight that a bunch of people got the order status stock issues for. Mine seemed to go through, must have got in early enough.

RevanIkari04 · Sep 17, 2020

I had an order for a Ventus and I cancelled it because it was not the model I wanted. Really regreting that now

Nooblet · Sep 17, 2020

So 2x 8 pin card or 3x 8 pin?
Decisions decisions.

Don't care much for OC but a factory 100 MHz boost would be appreciated, wondering if I can get that on a 2x8pin pin card without much trouble.

They most likely won't have one in shop.
I asked them yesterday if Liverpool store will have stocks today and they said no, and instead said they will have stocks for online order from 18th.

i double checked my 2nd trio order, and it survived somehow. i still dont trust it. but ventus probably will ship.

Gushu · Sep 17, 2020

The adjusted the price oh the EVGA cards on amazon.de. Go Go Go! 840€ for the FTW3 Ultra

Not a launch card tho. I will leave this as my backup and try to snag a MSI Trio

~~yes 100mhz is nothing. They were pushing 2050mhz in gamers nexus review at 375w limit, which is 300+?~~ nvm looks like boost actually goes higher automatically than specified. here is exact chart. they are entering +100 to core, which should come out to clk 1810, because boost is 1710, but the reality is boost is going much higher than that automatically.

Braag · Sep 17, 2020

I'm seriously contemplating selling my 2080TI and getting a 3080 but dunno if I will bother. I bought the 2080TI for 700€ as our company gives us huge discounts on these things at times, otherwise I would kicking myself right now.
