Doing my daily perusal of etailers and noticed this model of 3070ti going for less than the galax dual fan deal. Things seem to be looking up for gpu prices - rejoice.

Its not easy I am telling you, seeing incredible prices like these haha
I know soldier !! my ageing 1080 on my 34" hurts my soul running everything on low settings, but none the less fall in line !!
Me too! I have an asus rog strix gtx1080 running a 27" qhd @ 165hz so I feel your pain on the lowered settings! Still though, from what I have seen it's about as fast as a 3060 which still go for $800 for a cheapo and almost a grand for a strix like mine. I bought my card on sale for $740 in 2019 so the prices are still definitely way too high.
Still rocking with GTX970. signed up with Geforce Now (paying about $20 per month for 2080 performance but only 1080p streaming).
Hold the line boys and get 4080 when price is reasonable!
I feel you brother. I am in exactly the same boat. $1600 monitor with a 1080. Still, it runs okay.
Incredible prices would need to be below RRP
Just buy it and move on
why? ASUS TUF is premium card, at this price isn't it a bargain? we've been seeing gigabyte gigabtye gigabyte in the past.
Because like I said my 1080 still does its job and if it drops in the next month I could save an extra $100-200..
hopefully we'll reach around 1k in the next couple weeks
us/eu prices have come down more suggest waiting
Unrelated to this post. I've been going thru the forums and comments. It seems a budget and decent card to get is the 1650 Super. But on FB and gumtree the going price is 400-500.
Should I just keep my eyes peeled for a 1660 or 1660 Super? As 1650 doesn't seemed to be sold at the major stores. (Plus what's the difference?)
Thank u
1650 Super was good value at around $200, at $400 hard pass.
There aren't really any good options below probably $600 so despite the negs to that guy above who offered, that I think is actually a decent deal.
Keep waiting is the answer if your budget is for a $500 or less GPU
Ok I don't mind waiting. Ill monitor the prices for the 1660
The numbers are kind of like a model number. The last two digits of NVIDIA give you a relative price/performance level. 30, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90.
The lower the number the lower the price and performance (in general).
The first number(s) give you a generation number. 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 20, 30 … The lower the number the older the generation.Thx
The cards you mentioned on FB can be found cheaper on pccasegear. If you have 500 have a look at this card it's much more powerful than the 1650 and 1660. https://www.pccasegear.com/products/56997/asus-geforce-rtx-3…
Ok thx. I'll look into this
You'd have to be a fool to pay ~$500 for a used 1660 Super when the same money can get you a brand new 3050 with better performance and a much more robust feature set.
Miner is trying to get rid of their card too, price is accelerating downhill. HOLDING
I'm actually not a miner, I don't know the actual price of a preowned 2070 S is.
I know $800 is a robbery despite sold listings on eBay but I'm happy to let it go for less than inflation
Don't buy from miners, those cards are out of warranty the moment they messed around with thermal pads and paste. Miners already reached ROI and scores some profit, they should just give away their cards freely instead of keep scalping on ebay, gumtree and fb.
Agreed.
Would have to be crazy to buy a second hand GPU that had been running 24/7 the past year or more with it's warranty void just to save a hundred or two.
Wouldn't even consider getting second hand since most people would just lie about what they've been doing with it.you won't be saving a hundred from ex-miners FHR cards, they tend to scalp it over like $2200-$2800 for 3080 FHR: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/637731?page=3#comment
whilst brand new LHR one is just $1500, no difference on gaming between FHR and LHR.
just look it up on ebay now the're plenty of them.
3080 will buy
HODL until 3080s are this price.
They are dropping them bit by bit….but reality is they should be back to RRP or less.
3080s will never be this price, unless they are firesaling them for 40xx stock
They absolutely will if no one buys them.
"this price" is no big deal, its just the RRP, which was already pretty high.
You've just been conditioned to accept these shitty prices.
Exactly. Remember when the XX80 GPUs were selling for $800 a few years ago? Even at those prices they were still making profit. Current prices are just pure greed, the retailers want to hang on to the huge profit margin from the past one year for as long as possible.
@edfoo: Exactly right. Theyre reluctantly dropping prices by $50-100 every day or so trying to get desperate gamers to jump on it.
honestly, even at RRP I would still hesitate. These cards simply dont have enough VRAM. At launch, most didnt realise this, but 2 years on, even at 1440p, 8gb isnt enough.
@Ahbal: buy 3080 Ti, it has 12gb vram. you want 7 seaters car for the price of 5, the car salesman not going to make it happen, like ever.
@edfoo: 7 years not a few years, you and your imaginary $800. why don't just buy whatever you can afford and move on. your constant whinging is not helping.
@[Deactivated]: You're right buddy. It was 1080 TI's for $700-$800. Not base XX80 cards. And that was deep into 2018 so not even 4 years.
Finally some cards other than gIGabYte
This is a great model - excellent cooler and two hdmis plus three DP ports.
The most reassuring thing about these deals is that they're not going out of stock quickly, either! That means either there are tonnes of cards or people are successfully HODLing
Very good price buy it.
no buying, only waiting
Yeah wait for measly $50 less down the track whilst you could be having fun now.
you don't need a 1k gpu to have fun ser
NOPE.
GPU market for the past year has been played out like a science fiction horror film…
just for you, for others more like the wolf of wall street, where the wolf are the profit makers….
Whoosh!
Thanks!
Ordered one.Think this is better than the gigabyte 3070 Ti OC?
Yes, this card is better.
HODL
I've never heard of gamers that can hodl.
'budget' set by their parents
welcome to adult life. You have never budgeted before? not very ozbargain of you LOL
No budget, perhaps I just got too much moolah…
The temptation is killing me, if it wasn’t for the fact that I’d need a new PSU too then I would have bought this already…
A decent PSU that matches Asus' recommendation (750w for most systems) is only $93.14 ;)
Based on the TDP of the card though, you could likely get away with a 650w, even if running the CPUs listed in Asus' table against 750w.https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/Accessory/Power_Supply/Ma…
https://www.amazon.com.au/Cooler-Master-100V-240V-Voltage-No…
The one I was looking at was the Corsair RM850x. I acutely have a 650w currently but I’m worried it won’t be enough.
Also it isn’t the cost so much of the PSU, just mine is only 5 years old and it’s a hassle swapping it out haha.
650w will be completely fine - I'm guessing you have a i5 or AMD equivalent? The RTX 3070 Ti has a TDP of 290w which you'd only hit if you were running games in 4K with Ray Tracing etc turned on. In an i5-10400F system, I used a 500w PSU briefly with one of my RTX 3070 Ti cards and it was stable in games, no crashes.
@akyeeeahdude: Oh you’re making it interesting or me haha. I have an i7 7700, don’t do any overclocking and no intention to do so either. I got a 1440p monitor so tempted now to try getting the GPU first and trying it then only getting the PSU if I get crashes lol
Out of stock. Quick everyone panic, buy the others and drive all the prices up
👍 deals don't last long.
Another loss for clueless hodlers!
lol @ anyone who would pay $1200 for a gpu
Boohoo, as if there won't be anymore 3070ti at this price or cheaper forever. Another pathetic attempt.
I know it's sold out but how does this compare with the evga 3070 ti ftw?
both beefy heatsinks, i would say their comparable and really comes down to aesthetics and brand-bias
Keep holding the line boys
