      not long enough

        Already have a 3080 but I still look back to when I wanted to wait for the 3070 instead. But the 8gb Vram put me off.

        • LordNoon6 on 04/01/2021 - 21:23

          Good decision

          • [Deactivated] on 04/01/2021 - 21:45

            @LordNoon6: absolutely - it was $1,139. so $190 more than the card in this deal but performs much better :) although not so sure how easy it is now to find a 3080 at absolute retail. or even around 12-1300.

        • bobvegas on 04/01/2021 - 21:24
          +3

          and if you use the card for video editing, the 3060ti and the 3070 perform about the same due to the 3070's extra compute speed being cucked by 256mbit bandwidth, but this bandwidth much better matches the 3060ti which doesn't get affected

        • [Deactivated] on 04/01/2021 - 22:50

          It's not just the 8GB VRAM that should put people off. The 3070 uses GDDR6 while the 3080 uses GDDRX which is twice the bandwidth. There a huge difference between the two cards not just a matter of a step up or down.

        • Budju on 04/01/2021 - 23:29

  • ozvictor on 04/01/2021 - 21:02

    Same price as the 6800 reference model, but I think the 6800 has better value. faster in raw performance and double the vram

    • AlienC on 04/01/2021 - 22:03

      I did my solid research last night and its 6800 XT or RTX 3080 for me.

      Depends highly on price but I am leaning towards the 3080 unless there is a more than $300 difference most likely.

      6800 non XT is too underpowered for my liking but it does have its purpose for a less powerful build.

      Ultimately I want to see the 3080 Ti and how it is priced and performs before I make my ultimate decision.

      Definitely not going to get a 3090 and 6900 XT seems to overpriced unless it comes down a lot which I doubt it.

      • Budju on 04/01/2021 - 23:33
        +7

        So you're basically determined to spend $1500-$2000. Why wouldn't rx 6800 meet your requirements?

        • Jugganautx on 05/01/2021 - 03:57
          +1

          I should be getting my 3080 this week, my brother gave me his preorder got the xc3 ultra for 1235 delivered

      • [Deactivated] on 05/01/2021 - 18:24

        A reference 6900XT costs $1599 which is similar to higher end 3080s

        Also reference 6000 series aren't going to restock in Aus so if you find one buy it. They are great deals, no markup. Even the 6800 is a great deal considering it's already 10% faster than the 3070, and can be overclocked another 10%

    • dynamite on 04/01/2021 - 22:20

      Yep I thought the same and so I got the XFX RX 6800 reference model instead.

    • botchie on 05/01/2021 - 00:13

      6800 all the way if the price is the same, that card will only get Better and it's 16gb

    one of the best priced models
    $140 more than MSRP
    only 8gb Vram

    • TheContact on 04/01/2021 - 21:51
      +2

      $140 more than the very limited FE cards. MSRP of this is the also $949 on EVGAs site. Googled to see the rest of the card wondering if it had the red highlights, and learnt along the way there's an AU EVGA site.

      • botchie on 05/01/2021 - 00:14
        +2

        This card is not worth more then 800

      • kaleidoscope on 05/01/2021 - 03:57

        $140 more than the very limited FE cards

        Limited count or not, $949 is way too much for a card like this. The $140 is better spent for a higher vram model except they aren’t available yet. Imo, either spend bit extra for 3080 or wait for more vram model.

        • boydbino on 05/01/2021 - 20:21

          Even the 3080 isn't a high enough VRAM model, and not to mention overpriced.

          You are much better off waiting a few months and see what is to come in the future, then at least you can purchase something of better quality or save some money along the way by buying an older card. 20 or early 30 series.

          • kaleidoscope on 05/01/2021 - 20:50

            @boydbino: 3080 due to supply issue of vram, 3070 because it will sink 3080 sales if higher vram model is released. pretty much a paper release

          and at this price it still wouldnt make sense apparently.
          Oh that won't stop some people. During the last mining craze people were paying such stupid amounts for AMD cards that they'd never pay them off

        • ln28909 on 04/01/2021 - 23:45

          it doesn't make sense to buy a 3070 solely for mining since the return is the same as a 3060 ti, though you could also buy it to use mainly as gaming and mining on the side when idle, with proper undervolting, I'm sure you'll make a profit.

          Unless COVID becomes less of a concern to the world, you should be well covered with cryptomining

          With current pricing, if you mine 24 hour a day, I think you'll make between $100 -$150 / month with the average electricity cost in australia

      2070 super is enough for 1080p and 2k，only upgrade if you wanna play in 4K. But I think 2070 super is still enough for most game nowadays.

      I kinda think 3080 is a bit overhyped. People willing to pay a large premium for it. it might be a 4K king now but with 10gb of vram it won’t age very well. And it’s overkill for 2k.

        When you consider that a 2080Ti costed $2200+. The 3080, being considerably more powerful suddenly presents itself as good value.

      • cille745 on 04/01/2021 - 23:00

        The 3080 will run out of performance long before it'll run out of VRAM.

    If only evga was more popular on ebay then i would have gotten it. Couldn't find a store to price match.

    Picked up a msi gaming x trio 3070 for $927 through ebay gift cards/price match vs Harvey norman.

    • Bob Lou on 04/01/2021 - 22:39

      How could you get price matched, as it's not currently in stock on Harvey norman (I see it's pre-order)?

        they didn't notice it . quite common when price matching harvey norman they won't read that one line as you can still add to cart and estimate delivery etc.

        i had a backup to price match scorptec which was slightly higher but i managed to get through first try.

        i bought the last one from bpctech on ebay.

        just a note the MSI gaming x trio is ranked slightly lower than gigabyte and asus but you are talking like a tiny bit of performance which u won't notice. I just liked the build quality as my 3080 was a msi gaming trio as well.
