What other stores have the 3xxx up on their site besides Jimms?It lines up with times stores in EU are giving out for when GPUs come available for orders.

This is the same launch time overclockers.co.uk has posted on their forums.

I think that confirms was was mentioned before - 2pm BST/9am EST?
Ah thanks! Will bookmark Multitronic and Jimms for now :D Been refreshing Verkkokauppa too all day but nada on there.Few UK based stores like Overclockers.
Edt: Multitronic too now: https://www.multitronic.fi/components/graphics-cards/geforce-rtx-30
PcComponentes (Spanish site) also added today some RTX 30 series listings:Alternate.de got their first listings: RTX 3090 TUF for 1599, RTX 3090 TUF OC for 1629; 3080 is 759 and 788 respectively
No pre-orders obviously
An Nvidia Community Manager over on /r/Nvidia has possibly confirmed that the launch time for the cards will be 6am PST!

Sweet baby jesus. Good thing I have a large case lol

Yea, probably a 10 cent difference at best. But will definitely have all sites up so I don't miss it.I don't trust Verkkis to bring any hot deals on the table with 3000 series.
But if going for multi-store order approach then it can't hurt.
It won't. Or at least not before RTX2080Ti hits VRAM limitations. The memory bandwidth of the RTX2080Ti is 616GB/s. On the other hand, the memory bandwidth of the RTX3080 (thanks to GDDR6X) will be 760GB/s. As such, the RTX2080Ti will be the first GPU that will be bottlenecked in 4K.
As for HardwareUnboxed's 4K video, here are the memory bandwidths of the RTX2080 and GTX1080Ti.
RTX2080: Memory Bandwidth -> 448GB/s
GTX1080Ti: Memory Bandwidth -> 484GB/s
So yeah, from the get-go we knew that the GTX1080Ti would perform better in 4K (at least when it comes to more demanding VRAM games). That's not the case this time with RTX2080Ti and RTX3080.
Launch is still days away and some vendors are probably still deciding on their final pricing.EU stores getting updates for the new cards and I am still waiting for at least one big US store to refresh their site for the new cards...I know, I know....1st world problems...but still....
7700K will be fine.Going to get me a 3080 next year. I wonder if my i7 7700k can keep up though, because Id rather not exchange everything the same year. I know its a bottleneck, but as long as the cpu isnt what keeps me under 60fps once i get the 3080, then im good for a while at least.
I'm guessing by Wed/Thurs because Monday is a holiday here in US (Labor Day).Launch is still days away and some vendors are probably still deciding on their final pricing.
Next week probably most stores will have their listings up.
Can't wait to constantly refresh 20 tabs on the 17th.Pro tip, pick a couple of AIB models to choose from.
So that if you don't get your 1st choice you're able to atleast buy your 2nd or 3rd choice.
yeah, I already resigned myself that I won't be able to get one until Spring 2021.The demand for 3080 at launch is going to be absurd and I was starting to have my doubts about grabbing one too.
I contacted one of the small online stores at my place and they told me they can't accept pre-orders but they will block and keep one 3080 in stock for me in advance :D
Sept 17th can't come soon enough now.
One of my cousins who's generally knowledgeable about computer hardware said that he doesn't see what's a big deal about any of this pricing (as it's not a good deal).
Seem like he's way off here?
So 3 pm in Europe, 2pm UK
The angle in that picture makes it look wrong, an ATX mobo is 9.6 inches long, the 3090 is is 12.3 inches long for nvidia ver, and it won't be any longer than 13-4 inches or so for that AIB model. But that picture makes it look like the motherboard is half the length of the 3090.
OMG this is ridiculous haha. At that point, just add 1 more slot to install CPU & RAM and you have a PC that is just a GPU.
With the 3090, you mount the GPU on the motherboard or do you mount the motherboard on the GPU?
It's a mini ITX mobo.The angle in that picture makes it look wrong, an ATX mobo is 9.6 inches long, the 3090 is is 12.3 inches long for nvidia ver, and it won't be any longer than 13-4 inches or so for that AIB model.

Ah I see.
Faux outrage maybe? The photo is using a wide angle lens too and the perspective makes in look much larger too. It's the photo equivalent of click bait.Ah I see.
Well what do people expect then lol?
We've had cards almost this long before too.
Ah I see.
Well what do people expect then lol? Who's putting a 350w 3090 in a mini-ITX case.

You will be fine. Overclock the cpu for more performance. I know the 7700k overclock very well.Going to get me a 3080 next year. I wonder if my i7 7700k can keep up though, because Id rather not exchange everything the same year. I know its a bottleneck, but as long as the cpu isnt what keeps me under 60fps once i get the 3080, then im good for a while at least.
I feel like the only way they have a VRAM advantage is if it's just in quantity i.e. it uses GDDR6 and not 6x. Additionally if they are aiming for $550 and reduced the price from $600 to that like the rumour from today suggested then it's likely gonna be sitting between a 3070 and a 3080 in terms of performance as well as price. They wouldn't decide on going from $600 to $550 of it was faster than the 3080 as at $600 it'll still be cheaper than 3080.I hope AMD releases details about big navi before the 17th. If the rumors are to be believed, big Navi could have significant advantages over the 3080 with respect to power efficiency, memory bandwidth, amount of VRam and rasterization performance.
On the downside, it would probably trail in ray tracing and won't likely have anything like DLSS.
Normally, I would just wait before more details were known before making any decision, but all the talk of supply shortages might be triggering my FOMO.

Bought a 1070 EVGA at launch and came with no backplate. Reports started popping about it noticeably bending. At least EVGA shipped out free backplates in response.I'm kind of worried about sagging issues with these cards as well. If some company released some sort of bracket or plate that will help hold it up I'll pick on up. Kind of hard to believe so much weight is being put on some thin PCIE slot with these cards.
Something like this:
It's amazing that not a single person asked about review embargo until he was already gone.An Nvidia Community Manager over on /r/Nvidia has possibly confirmed that the launch time for the cards will be 6am PST!

Its all relative. Should gpus cost as much as they do now? I dont think so, but we have been conditioned to it.One of my cousins who's generally knowledgeable about computer hardware said that he doesn't see what's a big deal about any of this pricing (as it's not a good deal).
