        In comparison to a heavy smoker / couple smokers = $1,500 a month, something that will give you at least 5 years of enjoyment I think is not too bad a deal.

          It isn't that much.

          The point here is that we're being ripped off thanks to the card having 2 fancy features 2 games (games most people won't play). They've effectively just -1'd the last gen and thrown in some faster VRAM and some fancy tech that isn't being used.

          Nvidia had really better hope AMD don't have a high end with Navi, and that Navi screws up. Otherwise I don't think even Nvidia's mindshare will keep them at a GPU monopoly.

    I really don't understand the new import duty laws. It says the retailer "can" collect GST, but doesn't stipulate any necessity… Does the retailer just keep it? Are they obligated to pay that to the ATO? It's so unclear….

    https://www.abf.gov.au/buying-online/buying-online

    • Jase2801 on 03/02/2019 - 22:57

      This is interesting. Thanks for posting it.

      For goods with a value of AUD1000 or less, there are generally no duties, taxes or charges to pay at the border.
      However, From 1 July 2018, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) may be collected by overseas vendors of such low value goods when imported from overseas by consumers in Australia. GST will be charged at the point of sale and not at the border.

      • tromboc on 03/02/2019 - 22:58

        "may" be collected. Doesn't say "must"… brain freeze

    • qyst on 03/02/2019 - 23:10

      I'm not a tax lawyer (or any kind of lawyer for that matter) but:

      Under law they do have to collect taxes on purchases from Australia and pay them to the ATO. That said, much like tax fraud in Australia, if you're not conducting business at a high enough volume it would likely go under the radar.

      If they did catch wind that an overseas company was not collecting GST I don't think the ATO has the authority to audit to find the full scope (unless the company has an Australian business), but it certainly wouldn't be a good look—especially if they're publicly traded. I'm guessing they could ask customs to confiscate any shipments to Australia after that point, and/or collect tax at the border from the customer?

      • Diji1 on 04/02/2019 - 01:30

          • daiwai on 04/02/2019 - 07:56

            @Mixhael: That is why the tax will be collected at the border.

              @daiwai: Correct. I have experience buying a 2080Ti from this exact shop 3 months ago.

              B&H (this retailer) uses DHL has their shipping company.

              When the product arrives in Australian shores, DHL will check if the taxes (GST) has been collected. If not, they will call you and ask you to pay the GST before they release the item.

                @reddead2067: This most likely wont happen if the declared value is under $1000, a 2080ti is certainly well above $1000.

                @reddead2067: Are freight carriers obliged to collect GST? I thought is was only the sellers?
                I think freight carriers may be obliged to collect customs/import duty?
                Not sure on all this… just putting it out there.

    • oy-vey on 04/02/2019 - 06:36
      +1

      The reason for the ambiguous wording is because it all has to do with how much a company sells into Australia. In other words, if it’s a small business selling $5k worth of fishing reels per year for example, they are excluded from having to collect GST because the compliance cost will be too high.
      However, if a company sells over $70k of goods into Australia annually, they are required under Australian law to collect GST and provide it to the ATO. B&H would likely fall into this category, as would Amazon and the like. The ATO has contacted companies that are required to pay GST and the big guys are all aware of their responsibilities.

      Goods over $1000 AUD will continue to be taxed at the border by Customs, regardless of how much business a company does in Australia.

        Every time someone asks for advice on whether they should upgrade/buy a PC component, there's always someone telling them to wait.

        Screw that, buy it now, enjoy it now. There's always something better/cheaper/faster/stronger on the horizon.

        • FabMan on 04/02/2019 - 18:14

          Very true, but 1070 is still pretty awesome, so its not like they are dealing with a 750Ti. 2080 just seems too expensive for my taste though, nearly a thousand dollars. Just because there is a new product, doesn't mean the one you have suddenly became rubbish or that the new one will offer significant benefits.

      I would say no. I feel like upgrading should be the next 2 generations up, as i do wanna upgrade my aging 980 but can't afford an RTX 2080. Perhaps a 2060 will do.

      • Velocita on 04/02/2019 - 00:11

        I feel like I should upgrade too, but my 980 is still performing just fine. Can’t really justify it, especially with this lacklustre 20X0 series

    • Kingduytan on 04/02/2019 - 07:55

      I also upgraded from 1070 2 months ago. I say if you have the money then it's worth every single penny at $900 (price I paid for 2080 new at that time, 1080ti used was around $800-$900, doh!). Performance increase is like +50% I finally can push 1440p 100fps at high/ultra settings, I couldn't believe how much did I miss. 1070 is very good for 1080p, but if you want to play games at 1440p, then the 2080 is a no-brainer. Tech price will always go down so if you hesitate you'll just forever wait for next gen. The 2080 will keep you happy gaming for a few years. At under $1000 and the fact that you can buy cheap freesync monitor, it's pretty reasonable, so why wait?

      • Bid Sniper on 04/02/2019 - 09:00

        THanks for this want to 4K gaming. 1070 does some older games at 4K but struggles newer games at 4K

          +1

          Then RTX 2080 is the right card to get! I'm playing on my 4K TV occasionally and the 2080 did a respectable job at keeping the frame rate steady at 60 in Witcher 3, FF XV and AC Odyssey (yeah I only play RPG). I do have to turn down a notch or 2 for some settings, but usually those don't have real visual impact or are undesirable anyway (like the volumetric cloud in AC Odyssey).

          • Bid Sniper on 04/02/2019 - 10:31

            @Kingduytan: Thanks also Freesyc is available on the 2080 and not a 1070. Recently got a Samsung QLED TV has freesync. If it can run Witcher 3 at 4K then its the card to get!

              @Bid Sniper: Freesync IS available via the 1070.

              And freesync from an Nvidia GPU is via displayport only, current Samsung TV's don't have displayport.

    • Hogey 74 on 04/02/2019 - 10:29

      No I don't think so. I'm considering picking one up second hand in the low 300s… A solid card at a reasonable price. I'm waiting for navi, and will spend $500 on a major performance boost, but those second hand 1070s are the benchmark for me.

    Not sure if you are a gamer but that feeling you get when you unbox a new powerhouse graphics card and you can't wait to install it. After you install the first thing you normally do is run benchmarks. When we see the final result with high FPS the feeling we get is indescribable. We then quickly install a game so we can run an FPS software to see how it performs and again we feel joy when the result says 120 FPS on ultra high settings with 1440p/144mhz. After a few days of doing this over and over again and then reality sets in an we think damn I just spent a $1000.

        A. Since this is an NVIDIA sponsored promotion, if you purchased your card from a participating retailer, then they would provide you with a promotion code.

        Guess i will need to ask futuregear

        • SardineHead on 04/02/2019 - 11:23

          Instructions:

          Register your EVGA Graphics Card with us at EVGA.com
          Request your code from the form while logged into your EVGA.com account
          Once approved your code will show on this promotion page under the "Collect Your Code" section
          You must redeem your code(s) through NVIDIA GeForce Experience.
          Install your qualified graphics card.
          Update or install the latest version of GeForce Experience (Version 3.16 or higher).
          Open and log in to GeForce Experience.
          Go to the Account drop-down menu in the top-right and select "REDEEM".
          Enter your bundle code from your qualifying bundle purchase.

          If im reading it right, you need to register the card here - https://www.evga.com/support/register.asp - then request a code while logged in here - https://www.evga.com/articles/01295/game-on/

          You need to make an evga account first though.

                    @SardineHead: I would expect they should give it, I havent left feedback yet so we will see what they say

                          @Zabuza: upload your paypal invoice. thats what i just did. says "request" and allow for 5 business days for confirmation!

                          • Zabuza on 04/02/2019 - 23:34

                            @SardineHead: it looks like a different page to the one you linked and paypal receipt? would that be enough in the thing it says it must show the evga sticker

                          • Zabuza on 04/02/2019 - 23:54

                            @SardineHead: Mine says this when i uploaded,

                            "For security reasons we do not show your invoice here. If you see this message, we have successfully received your invoice for this product."

                            Seems like we uploaded in different sections?

                            • SardineHead on 04/02/2019 - 23:55

                              @Zabuza: mine said that too. it simply means the invoice has been uploaded. click save

                              • Zabuza on 04/02/2019 - 23:56

                                @SardineHead: :D, wish me luck and hopefully you will get it too, cant you delete and reupload? pretty sure i saw a delete button there after i saved

                                • SardineHead on 04/02/2019 - 23:57

                                  @Zabuza: i should be alright. compared it to the ebay invoice and the paypal has all that plus transaction id and more.

                                  • Zabuza on 04/02/2019 - 23:59
