I might see if I can get one of Dan's business grants to buy one of these…
Use your own money, withdraw some Super.
I already used my super for cosmetic surgery.
Govt are discouraging us from withdrawing Super, but encouraging to apply for grants.
Just trying to do the right thing.
Good price, but i would personally wait for the 3000 series and Big Navi.
My guess is, these would've been sitting somewhere for Gigabyte to use as replacements under RMA's.
Looks like stock is finally being cleared and prices are coming down now, ready for the 3000 series soon!
Lol @ rrp
RRP $2399
I just choked on my Corn Flakes…
corn flakes. Sure..
Buy with confidence knowing all the manufacture refurbished mainboard & Graphic cards come with 12 months return to base warranty
Not very reassuring when these normally have a 4 year warranty.
Great find. But like everyone said above.. 3000 series will be out very soon!
Really tempting with my current bottleneck'd system :( …
Pretty crazy to think that this was $1399 + delivery at one point not that long after release also.
Wait was it really 1399 at one point? I haven't been keeping up with gpu since gtx1080.
Yes but over a year ago.

Was for a very short period of time so unsustainable it seems.
Damn I was thinking of the extreme version
Not the same card, but yes, those were reasonably cheap.
Lol a second hand 2080ti this close to the new models?
Awful.
That's more than I spent on my first car lol
3 x more … lol (dont ask)
Oh but I want to…. How much did it end up costing in repairs and maintenance and how long did it last?
haha only thing i changed on the VC commo was the battery, oil and filters etc i changed with my father in law who was a mechanic so not much cost wise just materials… i sold it after about 18 months (with 6 months left on the rego) for the same amount i bough it … 1 rego renewal cost more than the frikin car.. lol dumb sh*t i did when i was younger boggles the mind… car barely even had paint on it but it got me to places i wanted to go LOL
@scud70: And that's all you really want anyways just to get from point a to point b.
How much do you reckon you spent on petrol that year?
@AlienC: on that vc with an after market carby… i'd say more than what the car was worth in the end (not that the fuel gauge worked.. basically you'd go from full to half then it'd drop in to empty pretty soon after LOL) , i used to go to Wollongong uni from stgeorge area (so about 50 mins to 1 hr highway drive if your in another state) my math was never great when logic was brought up… mind you it went ok for a car that was 20 years old (this was close to 20 yrs ago)..
Why are these cards still so expensive? Every generation in the past has seen steady price drops. What's special this time?
Has to be supply issues from corona doesn't it?
The 2020 curse
Directed to raise prices… on already jacked prices! Going to price themselves out of the market if AMD can fix their issues with their new cards.
first AMd needs to catch up to current gen
The chip used (the TU102) is enormous at 754 sqmm. Memory and board prices were expensive at the time as well due to cryptomining demand.
As you go up in die size (to a maximum of about 850 sqmm) yield rates go down alongside the total number of dies possible for the silicon wafer (300mm diameter). The 2080 Ti die was an aggressive SKU not only in its size, but how little it was cut down from the full die, and how early it was launched.
If they'd instead decided to push the die size further, then let the supply trickle down more from professional cards (Quadro, Tesla) as a refresh, it's possible it could have been a bit cheaper, but every aspect of the economics involved were stacked against it.
What a joke of a price for a refurb graphics card.
I wouldn't even pay that much for a brand new card.
benchers and hardcore gamers
Anyone wanting to profit by reselling asap the stock they manage to buy.
Someone that needs a GPU for starters
A bit hard to swallow given that new 2080ti's were as low as $1400 at one point.
Yes they are "premium" variants as opposed to the windforce or EVGA black. But used, repaired/refurbished and with only 12 months warranty….
Yep, prices got inflated with the cryptoboom and never came back down, seemingly through plenty have kept buying Ti's @ near $2000 so will be interesting to see what Nvidia do with the 3000 series.
Well those $1500 JobSeeker and JobKeeper payment and Early Super withdrawal have to be spent in something.
You actually don't get any extra with JobKeeper. Am on JobKeeper and the $1500 is for the company to take. That's why government give that to company and not directly to staff. I wish I get $1500 extra…
It aint meant to be extra wtf you on about
u could have both if u work barely any hours….
Very good price but I'd rather wait and pay $2500 for a new 3080ti :)
It is sad but your prediction on the price is probably correct.
No way we will be seeing $1500 AUD 3080ti any time soon.. I'm thinking I should have just waited and got the $1400 2080ti while I still could have.
But here is to hoping.
We’ll be lucky to see the vanilla 3080 for under $1500. Covid + Supply chain issues + Australia tax is going to make next gen really hurt our wallets at release.
I think his estimate of $2.5k for the Ti variant is a strong possibility 😔.
I know just wishful thinking on my part as always.. sometimes I gotta dream because reality is dreadful.
Lol no
Thank-you 🤝
And get underpowered buggy tech?
go away
Good video on if wait/sell/buy 2080ti. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zJL99lb7F4
Manufacturing of 2000 series is rumoured to stop.
3070 is expected to overtake 2080ti and be available in September .
This could easily cut value of your 2080ti by $500 once those benchmarks go official.
Like the 2000 series before launch…
Dang just bought a used RTX 2080 Super for $900 :D if only you posted this earlier I would've bought this instead ha!
