inb4 someone negs me because this is RRP… but technically this is discounted from $899 to $809.
3070 is on par with the 2080Ti/S variants of last gen. So not a bad price for a new release. Get it while it lasts!

@tyme: Cost of running a console? I bought an X box S for $350 in 2016 and sold for $250 2 years later then bought a Series X for $500 2 years ago and sold it for $400 last week. So total depreciation over 4 years was $200. People have just lost $500 on RTX 2080 this year! Gaming PC's lose so much money over 5 years its crazy. Also most people got on the 3 year Xbox gaming pass ultimate deal for $120. That's $40 a year! I'm not saying for sure a ps5 or Xbox series X will blow 3070's away but its likely to be very close considering the new gen tech. We will find out soon anyways because next gen consoles are actually going to be in stock!
