First post, be nice. Have been looking for a cheap priced 1070 ti for awhile and stumbled upon this today. The price yesterday was literally $680ish and now its $563.
Price below is possible if you are able to claim the GST back and 1% on cashrewards.
Price: $574.49
GST: $51.7
1% cashback: $3.50
= $519.29
Not sure what deal this is and how long this will last.
danke. short and sweet seems to be the way with first posts.
7nm AMD Navi 10 RX 3080 8GB GDDR6 150W $249US will be a better buy then this in a very short wait for those who can wait :)
Wanting the G-sync so amd not an option. otherwise its a good deal.
gotta wait for actual performance numbers before I believe the rumors. The last GPU's from AMD were supposed to be much better than they turned out to be as well.
Looking forward for them along with free sync monitor
Hardware unboxed did a video about this, they said pricing is never decided upon till about a week out from launch. So this is a false rumour.
7nm AMD Navi 12 RX 3060 4GB GDDR6 75W $129US = RTX2050/GTX1060
7nm AMD Navi 12 RX 3070 8GB GDDR6 120W $199US = RTX2060/GTX1070
7nm AMD Navi 10 RX 3080 8GB GDDR6 150W $249US = RTX2070/GTX1080
3 months from now competition is going to be strong in the low to mid range market

lol. I like the way AMD named them looks like next generations of NVidia cards. Reminds me of iPhone releasing iPhone X after Samsung 8 or 9.
Pricing was it looks good. Looking forward for them and I hope it wont be far away. For last few years, AMD has been in low end to mid end cards and not touching the high end ones.
They still wont be touching the high end ones until at least the end of 2019 or most likely 2020.
RTX2070/GTX1080 isnt high end anymore
Those are the GTX2080/GTX1080Ti
And ultra high end GTX 2080ti and now RTX Titan at a whopping ripp off price of $2499US
10% Faster then GTX 2080ti at its now much more attractive price of $1199US when compared to the price of the new RTX Titan
Nice tactical move by AMD to leak this and get people holding off on spending dough.
not the best as it also has the same effect of people holding off buying RX570's and RX580's along with Vega 56 and Vega 64 :)
Going into the holiday season too..
This doesn't stop anyone from buying a RTX2080 and up.. Once Nvidia moved to 7nm we are going to see some crazy high end stuff. AMD's high end on 7nm cant come soon enough to bring down Nvidia GPU's back to earth
@vid_ghost: I thought of that, and considered there is really not much stock of any AMD gpu's. Very hard to find Vega and the RX 570/580 are at budget pricing anyway - that is, they are tempting to tide people over until next year. There is the announcement of the RX590, but how many of them are around, and they can be made cheap anyway.
@vid_ghost: i ordered a vega 64 on newegg a few days ago, having second thoughts but too late to cancel now
Nice first post op
danke.
Nothing wrong, except it's from newegg :(
whats wrong with that?
slow shipping.
Really slow shipping (unless you pay a tonne).
Deal is good though.
@elitistphoenix: My first order of ram took about a month, then ordered a mouse and it was at my door in less than a week. Seems to be random. One came auspost, other was TNT. Free shipping both times.
I've found their shipping quite accurate.
@magic8ballgag: Depends on how item is shipped. My PSU was shipped in 8 days with paid shipping, RAM is still on way with free shipping.
Got shipped this morning and meant to be arriving on 12th Dec.
Bought a keyboard on the 26th…it's the 10th today, still haven't even received it yet :(
Warranty
How does warranty work in this case?
@ash7503: Newegg support are beyond rubbish. Double charged me hundreds when i bought RAM and took a drawn out paypal dispute to eventually get money back.
@DardyMate: Think of it as 6 months warranty, using PayPal. If the price is good enough then it's ok. In this case, I'd buy only EVGA from them.
@follow: Thanks for answering. I'm torn if I should go for Newegg (save a bit) or just go get it from PLE which is $699 and save the stress.
@DardyMate: https://www.amazon.com.au/EVGA-RTX-2070-Black-08G-P4-1071-KR…
Good price. Wait for 10% cashback. Comes very often. $681.78.
Amazon and EVGA warranty.
@follow: Hey Tarquin,
Thanks for this.
Are they significantly better than this? https://www.ple.com.au/Products/630206/eVGA-GeForce-GTX1070T…
Sorry for asking too many questions. I'm noob asf and just started to build my computer.
@DardyMate: Not sure about significantly but the 2070 is in between the GTX 1080 and GTX 1080Ti.
Seeing as it's cheaper, and better, it's a no brainer.
Also, Amazon's global return policy is pretty neat. Read more
@follow: Thanks for this information. I just don't know now.. GPU is the only thing missing to complete my tower!
I was reading a thread about them last night: https://old.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/a32idt/done_w…
Also, I ordered some sdcards from them a couple of weeks ago.. They still haven't left the states :/ Must be hard to pack and ship those.
I was surprised at the difference in shipment times from Newegg.
I bought a Ryzen 1700X CPU + board + RAM from Newegg during the black friday 'tech week' and had all these components within 4 business days (FedEx)
I ordered that giant Noctua CPU Cooler separately from newegg which came from one of their 'partners'… arrived within 2 days from Taiwan via DHL!
Then I ordered a new keyboard to take advantage of that $30 off offer they had around Nov 26 and it's only just hit Sydney this morning with DHL (i'm in Perth)
Cool on the Taiwan order. There would have been no requirement for GST on that order, did Newegg charge it?
Really? I still got charged gst…
Isn't the Fedex one the quicker one? If you opted for the free shipping it could take up to 3 weeks
Free shipping on everything except the noctua cooler, that was 10 bucks shipping
One of the better first posts
Well played OP
How do you claim back GST?
Claim TRS when you travel
By having a holiday outside of Australia
You have to be a real ozbargainer to take a graphic card with you on holiday.
A dual slot card is quite fragile and it's not something I'd really want to travel with on your carry on and the box is huge as well!
You're assuming they always request to see the items you're claiming GST on.
I did! Took a 1070Ti, Threadripper and some RAM in my carry on. It was a work trip though so it wasn't going with me to the beach or anything like that.
You might be able to just take the box by itself without the card, and hope the guy at the counter isn't clued enough to check the contents (and understand it).
Questionable if legit (though technically, you are bringing at least part of the item), but worth a shot, since you can just flatten the box after going through TRS and hence it doesn't really get in the way much (or throw it away if you don't care about warranty). If it doesn't work, well, then you know.
I've claimed laptops on TRS and have never needed the original box, so it doesn't seem that packaging is required.
Also have experienced cases when the TRS booth is closed, in which case, they get you to fill out a form and include the receipts in the envelope. Obviously, this means there's no-one there to check whether you brought it along or not. If you're leaving in the middle of the night, you may not be required to show items at all.
I am holding off for Christmas… I have a feeling RAM, SSD and GPU will be lower around that time. Hope I am right 😅
Hope you're right. Didn't want to gamble and it seems cheap enough so I bought it.
The sellers would be silly not to maximise profit until after christmas. There is also a shortage on Intel cpu's which is pushing some pricing up.
I don't think you are able to claim GST if it's shipped outside AU is it?
you can if it's on the invoice and it's for your business.
Business, c'mon what business do you need a GTX 1070Ti?
Even if you're doing graphics design, you would use a Quadro
I've used them for bimolecular modelling. The cost-vs performance of the consumer cards are hard to beat! You can replace these regularly for the same cost of the Quadro which makes up for the durability. Also this works if the double precision isn't as important.
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/jcc.24030 For reference
Yea assumed for TRS it has to be aus? Or does TRS still work
Its off the AU page and some post before I saw that they have registered australian business number that goes with it. so it should be fine. correct if i'm wrong.
Update on GST. I received the invoice and it has the company with australian ABN on it.
Newegg International Inc:
https://abr.business.gov.au/AbnHistory/View/63510908402
So I think it should be fine. That proves that the GST is paid to the ATO which is claimable.
It is a piece of paper and does not prove anything. They are outside of Australia's jurisdiction but they as a mainstream store would be a bit silly to ripoff too much. Being a bigger "corporation" there is not two owners in a back office manipulating things either.
I do not know the process of that happens at the TRS counter but based on my knowledge, that piece of paper with the registered ABN means that I can claim it at TRS. The TRS isn't going to trace to the exact GST which the entity reported. If as a result they found out newegg isn't reporting gst and have been collecting them is not really our problem in this case. So to my knowledge and the person refunding my gst at TRS, it has been done.
By law they must provide their Australian ABN on all paperwork etc, and denote the GST paid.
Significantly better value than the 2070 currently for very similar performance.
I have only ordered once from them and agree shipping is very slow. I think the issue is that they are just not upfront about how long they take to ship. My order wasn't processed for a week even before shipping started.
Wow, this looks great
This is my pc right now, https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/FN8bD2 if I upgraded, would I have enough power? Also, how much of an upgrade is it?
The r9 290 is still a very good 1080p card and has aged quite well despite running hot and loud.
Take a look here for the performance uplift. A r9 290 should be somewhere between r9 390 and gtx 970 performance so it looks reasonably significant in my opinion.
If your existing psu is good enough for a 290, it's enough for a 1070ti.
Questions to ask yourself:
Are you happy with the performance you currently get with your 290?
is the above upgrade significant enough for you?
You can also consider trying an undervolt + overclock on your 290 for some free performance.
Where does R9 280 sits compared to GTX 970 or R9 390.I can play 1080p games on medium settings.
The 280 is quite a bit weaker than the GTX 970 and r9 390… It's a bit slower than the r9 380 in my link above (basically slower clocks).
As I have kill a watt and measure my system with 3570k and r9 390x tri-x. Power draw from the wall with game like f1 2016 or heaven benchmark running at full speed and OC to 4.5 ghz and + 100 for core clock on gpu and CPU is around 400-450Watt, even with furmark running it still only 500watt still far from 620watt if for only single gpu. Crossfire or SLI is another story, so I think with your PC for the whole system without the r9 290 maybe 100-130 watt max, and with 1070 ti I guess all the power draw is only around 390 watt. And for the upgrade I think you gain about 35% to 45% speed from gaming depend on the title.
not bad considering I bought a GTX 1070 mini around a month ago for $495
WTB Asus ROG Strix 1080 Ti please :(
I have one, how much you offer? Good condition minimal actual gaming use, never overclocked.
Which state are you from?
Very far
Hey folks, I'm a long time perv, first time poster.
I almost purchased the i7 8700K and an Asus Z390i Mobo from Newegg a few weeks ago, but started to freak out incase of warranty issues.. I'm stressing about spending $880 - $900, and then being on my own for warranty.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Solid first post!
