Great price for a 3080 - $100 cheaper than the asus deal.
$30 off if using Afterpay as part of the Afterpay sale - This is applied to the Afterpay cart and is not reflected on the JW site.
see https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N3080EAGLE-OC-10GD… - for more info on the card.
I got an eVGA Black for $1139, which was the RRP when they launched in Sept 2020
How long did ya wait. I got mine after 9 Months. 😂
I got an EVGA 3080 FTW3 for $1200 - I think I ordered in November 2020, got it in July 2021 😂
@floplikeafash: I went for the craptacular zotac at that price point. It's a fine card if you're happy running stock, on the flip side got the card in November 2020 so didn't wait as long.
@BargainKen: Love Zotac.
I bought 2 Gigabyte GTX590's and they refused to repair one when it died 3 weeks past the warranty period.
Ordered in Sept, got it in Dec. So not too bad
MSRP was US$699, $1139 was just the EVGA price from that retailer.
Bought MSI GeForce RTX3080 VENTUS 3X 10GB GDDR6X (RTX 3080 VENTUS 3X OC) for $1379 on 17/09/2020 and picked up 11/11/2020.
still hodl
Hodor?
I expect them to go well under MSRP as the market correction occurs. Miners will be offloading cards in droves.
No longer profitable for Crypto mining?
Still profitable, but not as much.
second hard mining cards? nar i'll take a new card with warranty and just pay the extra.
you really think people will continue to pay 1500 when miners are sellin them for 1000? all prices will drop not just second hand
@abjsdhasehasee: No, i think people will continue to pay $12-1300 like a whole bunch of the ones on here have.
I don't think you realise just how much mining takes out on those cards operating 24/7.
yep, still falling fast enough to wait a little longer.
Bloody after pay
So sick of it
What’s next?
Buy your milk in easy 4 instalments?gtfo
BNPL can EAD
Pretty sure you can do that with some of them
Prices starting to look realistic (as of late 2020 😂)
I assume these are LHR though?
Yeah true. Non-LHRs were at this price point in 2020.
Bought an EVGA for ~1200 ish that covered its cost in few months 😂
Same, $1139 for an EVGA that has paid for itself several times over :)
I got my 3080 back in December of 2020 for 1499$. Glad to see them go back down as this card has been serving me well.
Hopefully these more sensible prices carry over to the 4xxx series; don't feel like I can justify buying a 3080 with it so close to EoL and my 1080 chugging along just fine. Congrats to all the HODLers who've been desperately tryna replace 780's and 980's, tho - enjoy!
Good job guys! Keep holding!
ASUS cuts prices by 25%. More will follow

You should credit people with previous post of this, rather than try to take credit yourself.
Are you the author of the post dude?
You have seen my post of it, stop being so obtuse.
@[Deactivated]: Sorry mate, I ahvent honestly. I dont even know where your post is. I read a lot of technical stuff and my google news only shows a list of technical stuff and this was present there.
Wonder when AMD cards going to start firesale…
I'm waiting for the MSI 6800XT… still stubbornly sitting at around $1800.
Won't be long now, they must drop prices soon to keep up with NVIDIA.
Id love to get a 6800 strix lc around the 1200 mark. Might be wishful thinking but at least i can hold till next gen if it doesnt get there in price..
Can you believe people are still selling 3080's on fb marketplace for $2.5k because they are FHR?
Can't wait for those douche bags to get burnt. Especially given mining profits are at an all time low.
Especially given mining profits are at an all time low.
They're not man, 10 years ago you'd be getting > $1 / gpu / day.
"All time" low perhaps not correct, but they are the lowest they have been since 2020, maybe earlier.
A fully unlocked 3080 would be lucky to hit over $4 a day, which is going to take a long time to pay off 2.5k.
Especially with news like this coming through: https://thedefiant.io/ethereum-merge-test-eth2/
you assume they start mining today, they started early last year or even before, it was $15 a day early last year. That's half a tank of petrol back then.
@[Deactivated]: Not sure if you read my post, but buying it off marketplace right now would mean mining with it right now?
That's why they are selling it for 2.5k.
Not sure how you could mine with it before buying it.
@thedean: They selling it for 2.5k coz they're greedy. They already made ROI ages ago and still milkin scalper profit. are you miner?
@[Deactivated]: I gave my rx580 to my brother in 2020 and purchased a 6700xt on release.
Been mining on and off with it since then and have about paid it off (inc electricity costs).
My only goal was to actually pay off the damn thing, but I am well aware how much mining profits have changed. I work in data so I actually graphed it out last night with the raw data you can get from Nicehash.
@thedean: not sure why I got negged by saying it was $15 last year, which was true. and petrol was cheap back then.
nothing wrong with mining on your only card to offset the cost. people might really need the card last year to work or something.
not everyone can HODL just to reach their 'ultimate bargain price' which they have no clue anyway what the ultimate price is. retailers and distributors know the bottom price, not hodlers.
@[Deactivated]: You got negged because you missed with your first comment the point entirely with "I assumed they started mining today". This is for cards available to purchase today that are higher because they are FHR.
In validation of selling a used FHR card for $700 more than a new LHR card, the previous mining price from last year is completely irrelevant.
A used FHR card should sell for lower or at least the same price as a new LHR card (especially given they are 70% unlocked now). It's basically a scam selling them higher, especially when they all say "never been used for mining".
A used FHR card should sell for lower or at least the same price as a new LHR card
Not true. A FHR card can do everything a LHR card can do, plus mine 30% more efficiently. Why wouldn't it sell for more?
If you look up FHR cards on ebay and look at active listings with bids, or "sold items", people are still happy to pay a premium for them.
P.S. regarding the 2.5k listings on FB/Gumtree, that's just the asking price. I doubt any of them have sold for that price recently lol.
@idonotknowwhy: I understand that, and without context of value that sounds great!
But lets actually look at it from an accounting perspective for a moment.
A FHR card is 30% increase in mining efficiency at the moment, will decrease overtime while they unlock more of LHR cards.
How does that efficiency return on it's investment?
Using Nicehash's profitability estimator on a 3080 FHR, at current market prices, we see you can earn $3.56 a day. That's approx $1.02 more than a LHR card.
Assuming you are buying the card for mining and you pay $300 extra for used FHR (which is low by resale standards) over the cost of a new LHR card. That $300 would take you a year to gain on just buying the LHR version of the card, a YEAR!.
Lets also take into consideration that ETH is about 45% down on it's ATH and make some very poor assumptions that it leaps to $6500 again and mining difficultly stays the same (very very unlikely). You would still be mining for 5 months before you broke even on just getting the LHR card.
Lastly, lets remember these cards are USED, usually 24 hours a day for mining. That =! a new card in any way.
It is objectively a bad idea in every way to purchase a FHR card at above current prices for a new LHR card.
I'd suggest the figures you are seeing on ebay are a lag from the current price adjustment awareness not yet being in the market, I envisage if all prices stay static or decrease, the complete ass is going to fall out of resale FHR market, as it bloody well should.
How do you get $30 off with afterpay?
Where is this afterpay sale you speak of OP? My afterpay cart says the same when I throw in $300 pc case
I assume it is part of https://www.afterpay.com/en-AU/afterpayday
This is what it looks like in Afterpay https://ibb.co/k0YWc2V
Would my non-LHR 3070 sell for a similar enough price that upgrading to this would be cheap?
No
because its non-LHR, like mine.
Yeah that's what I mean. I have a non-LHR 3070, and I'm thinking of selling it and buying a 3080.
Looks like it would only cost me about $250 for the upgrade for gaming / downgrade for mining, plus it's fresh card with a fresh warranty (mine is from 2020)
sell it now, selling non-LHR cards is about timing. only miners desire them, and clock is ticking for them.
if you're lucky you get $1400 for it.
@[Deactivated]: What about people who game and run NiceHash while they're not gaming? The non-LHR version is more desirable in that scenario.
I wasn't a miner, but then learned about NiceHash 3 months after I got my 3080. Thankfully it was before LHR was a thing :)
@chromium: the non-LHR reaches 74% efficiency at much lower price (now). so there's plus and minus in terms of dollar value.
Hi guys,
Regular browser, just made an account to share that this 3080 10gb is going to be $1198.5 after the afterpay 15% off deal. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/265573508163?
At least I believe the store is part of it as someone mentioned another of their items would be yesterday
Note that most people won't be able to put this through on Afterpay though because the sign up cap is about $600 I think. I've been signed up for a while now, and made a few purchases, I think mine is still less than $900
Mine started out at $500, went up to $2000 not long after and now sits at $3000 because I use it to pay for anything I can that allows afterpay.
Maximum I can use afterpay for is $2000 total value of order.
Then I pay it off instantly or 2 of the 4 payments up front.
Yeah you're right, mine's now up to $1500, I hadn't used it in ages.
Anyway, my point still stands for people who aren't already signed up
my afterpay limit is $6000, anyone need help purchasing please pm me.
And there gone , sorta glad the temptation would have been too much.
Must… hodl……
But you will miss the dip!!
Napkin ballpark math time:
MSRP USD 699
Assuming Exchange Rate at 'launch' Sept 2020 ≈ 1.40 AUD/USD
w/o inflation AUD Launch + GST = 699 * 1.40 * 1.1 = AUD 1076.46
inflation adjusted for 18 months since 'launch' assuming inflation 3% p.a. = AUD 1125.26
So good to see gpu's hit the 2022 floor price around $1200! (I like to round up)
Now to see how discounted they will be from msrp in coming months..
Great price. I paid $1349 for the original (non lhr) version of this back before all this price jacking crap started.
jeeeez. whats all time low?
