Sale currently on for specific model. Likely to stay that price while stocks last.
Edit: Don't forget about the RDNA3 annoucement 03/11/2022 I forgot to mention that :)

same, if amd don't try and scam us with stupid pricing then i'll be selling my 3080 and going amd
My fingers are crossed for good price and productivity performance
But why you’d want to upgrade from a 3080? Seems like a more than capable card
Same waiting for announcement here too. I'm holding on to my 3080, haven't bought a 4090 yet, not that I will any time soon with these prices.
if they put all the effod into cuda, I'm in. fk all the rt bullshit.
AMD can't put effort into 'cuda'. These are nvidias proprietary version of a stream processor. They just throw money at companies to develop software to be aimed at them, rather than being generic.
Make sure your home insurance covers total fire damage.
still over launch MSRP of 2959, wait for AMD's announcement within the next 48hrs.
Since when are partner models RRP?
$2959 is the launch MSRP of partner cards in AU. I didn't see any founders cards here.
This is an OC model. I'd hazard a guess its rrp is higher.
MSRP hasn't been a thing since Covid. Probably won't be for some time to come too.
if you want to pay more for a higher clocked bios, be my guest.
MSRP, RRP whatever you want to call it. 2959 was the launch price for various better 4090's in this country.
Who said I am. You can't compare an OC model to a base variant. Of course they'll charge more for the OC. Like the absurdly different Tuf variant pricing.
And how's that price trending? Up overseas.
I can compare and I just did, the difference is the bios. The TUF is a great example of this.
Sorry is this Overseas Bargain? didn't think so. Just because the something is low in supply in a different market, a higher price does not mean its a deal.
@goig986: OK. That's great. OC models should be RRP because reasons.
I guess standard clocked models should be what then?
No one is justifying OC models. But it's pretty obvious why a company is going to price those higher.
@scuderiarmani: Yes to sucker people in and get a bit more margin on these products. Just to clarify not all AIB cards are like this, some have more premium designs and liquid coolers etc that warrant a higher price tag, this like many others isn't one of them.
@scuderiarmani: I'm not saying an OC model should be RRP, i'm saying an OC model carries basically no extra value so should not be used to justify a higher price on as a "deal" on a site like this.
@goig986: It's 2022. Deals aren't what they were.
Availability is unfortunately half the deal now.
Does it come with a free desktop?
You'd have to be a real moron to buy this within days of AMDs new GPU announcement.
and is that a reason to neg?
Isn't that the point of negs? To deter people from wasting their money on bad deals?
@scuderiarmani: Found the Nvidia fanboy 😅 it doesn't really matter if the new AMD gpus are good or not - it's competition and it will force Nvidia to drop their prices.
@essent1al: I ain't a fanboy. I'm just not so fking clueless pinning my hopes on a company doing me favours in 2022.
Nvidia aren't dropping prices if they are more powerful. You must have come down in the last shower.
@scuderiarmani: We shall see ;)
@essent1al: cough fanboy
@scuderiarmani: Why are you so salty, I could care less if my card is Nvidia or AMD. I just know bad value when I see it.
@essent1al: I ain't salty mate. I'm just not delirious enough to believe another company is going to undercut their only competition with any real difference in this market.
@scuderiarmani: I don't know why people had such high hopes for the 7000 series, new platforms always have an early adopter tax and they weren't releasing any x3d CPUs with the initial launch either.
Even still, AMD is absolutely dominating CPU sales currently. Intel can't match the Zen 3 value.
@iseeyou1312: They aren't outselling the 13th gen. 13th Gen is dominating.
@scuderiarmani: An actual fanboy of nvidia and intel, or should i say an amd hater xD
@LuslecGrace: this back and forth stuff is why i lost interest in the pc enthusiast world, its just people shilling for any of 3 companies and accusing one of fanboys then the other and its pretty pathetic
@LuslecGrace: I guess previously having both a 3600 and 5600 makes your AMD fanboy look pretty stupid?
Geez people here are cooked.
I don't care for either. You live in denial and expect AMD to smash Nvidia in pricing and call me the fanboy…. Right.
@scuderiarmani: I literally quoted you the weekly sale figures of Germany's largest PC component retailer. The 5800x3d alone sold 1,400 units. The 13700k, Intel's best selling CPU, sold 130. AMD is smoking Intel.
13th Gen is beating Zen 4 in sales though, but both are selling terribly.
@iseeyou1312: I meant latest Gen, both sides. Intel is dominating sales atm.
I know older AMD is doing well. But AMD wouldn't be happy about that.
Ive seem Amazon figures on YouTube. US. Probably far more significant then Germany too.
@scuderiarmani: AMD would have insane profit margins on the 5800x3d thus is quite happy to keep selling them as fast as they can make them. There's always room to increase Zen 4 sales when Zen 4 x3d chips launch next year.
Possibly for some other CPUs like the 5600, 5700x, 5900x the margins are a lot smaller. From what I've heard Intel's 13th gen is being sold with razor thin margins, so even if they outsell AMD, their earnings won't reflect that, which is what shareholders really only care about. It also means they don't have much room to offer discounts if AMD wants to price their new CPUs aggressively, but for now AMD seems to want to keep on milking the early adopters.
@iseeyou1312: I can't see the 7000 series ever going well personally. Board prices killed it.
Everyone said, oh wait for 650 boards….
Well, they were terribly priced too.
This is my point. Stop pinning hopes on what you don't know. You'll set yourself up for a huge disappointment.
@scuderiarmani: Who is everyone? Board prices will be terrible for another 3-6+ months. This happens every launch. X570 and B550 prices were shocking on release, X570 was honestly quite overpriced for at least a year.
When DDR5 comes down and B650 prices are reasonable, say Q2 next year, and the 7800x3d is out and is 20-25% more performance over the current Zen 4 chips, then Zen 4 will be sweet. Right now it's very sour.
@scuderiarmani: it's a bit disingenuous to say anything from intel is dominating.
intel has always been the incumbent (src: https://www.techpowerup.com/img/uUVtAwO7cOgvPQWe.jpg)
AMD's ryzen has gave intel a run for their money, that's pretty much it.
always has been the case. the end result of competition like that is good for consumers, whichever camp is picked.
@slowmo: From memory, the only 7000 series CPU selling in the top 20 on Amazon US recently was the 7950. All 13th gen Skus were above, including KF variants.
People are choosing to only switch to buying the 5000 series, and obviously the very good x3d chip instead of upgrading their platform.
@scuderiarmani: fwiw, the chart i posted is the last 20 years of desktop cpu market shares of intel vs amd.
credible sources out there. not just amazon stats.
intel has always been incumbent, and in comparison, amd made a blip at equalisation at some point.
that's it.
what amd is doing is a good thing for competition. keeps intel on their toes and stops them from trying to milk users with pisspoor marginal upgrades while still selling and ignoring security issues on their on chips.
don't care which direction the 7000s goes, since i don't have skin in that race. However, don't go pretending that the prices intel is putting out now for their chips are solely out of intel's good will and charitable side.
@scuderiarmani: Friday happened, I’d argue there’s reason to not be disappointed
Well, if Toyota were to slash the price of a GR Corolla, knowing that the FL5 Type R is coming, would that make the GR Corolla a bad deal?
@dukeGR4: i'm all for price slashes all around
.
price slashes from incumbents are generally attempts to 'retain' the market segment.
literally wait for amd announcement. even if they were marginally slower it would be a much better deal. plus even this deal is considered atrocious https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/731270
I actually cant believe people are buying these at these prices.
you can believe that at least one person (me), set aside budget for it based on the projected covid lockdown + mining prices.
i am a bit slower to pull the trigger on purchase, that's what saved my wallet (a few times i admit)
this time round would be a bit different with the rdna3… it is an emotional decision this time (very pissed with nvidia).
;) yeah I set aside 1200 for a 3090 and my computie still runs like a shower of shyte.
my computie still runs like a shower of shyte
Why is that?
i had my eyes on the evga 3090 kingpin, so it was the stock levels and the subsequent LHR BS that came about. so the budget is already set aside. evga pullout was the final nail in the coffin.
I run my gpu for hours every day for stable diffusion for work, which afaik is only really viable on nvidia cards. It's tempting to look at these crazy upgrades to dramatically increase the speed of that, but I don't think my increased income would really balance it.
Also expecting prices to drop after an initial release aimed at getting however much they can from those who will pay anything, and can wait.
i ran deepracer local as a hobby… so it's not like even there is an income to cover what i do with GPUs. lol.
i'm counting down the hours to announcement….
it would be incredibly naive to think the prices are not going to fall any further.
18 hours to go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhwd6UgGVk4
Terrible price.
$2999 clams…I guess if you say it quick enough, it wont seem as expensive as it is…
HODL for 5000 series around the corner
I wouldn't be surprised if OP works for JW computers tbh. First post and thinks this is a deal, sus.
“Likely to stay that price while stocks last.”
How else they know this?
Yeah, worded very strangely lmao
You mean the new account who posted and ghosted?
Not the cheapest 4090 available and this card was also ~$2,800 on Ebay yesterday with the 10% flash sale.
Wait for RDNA 3. Don't feed NVIDIA with these ludicrous prices.
You forgot to add the monthly subscription price to replace burnt cables.
good burn
Suspicious account, bad timing with pending announcement.
oh no no no no no, ada lovelace buyers dont realize nvidia is near at tsmc's 5nm wafer limit and the next series will be a slight improvement. amd's gpu chiplet design about to end nvidia's run.
Nvidia is about to experience the Intel 2017 pain train Ryzen run.
Not sure why you're being downvoted, on the 3rd of November Jensen is about to get Lisa Su'd. Nvidia is more competently governed, thus won't experience the same pain Intel received.

yes quite strange
Typical Ozbargainers who see $3K as expensive lol. To people who know the real purpose of cuda cores and tensor cores, we laugh.
same as people who buy sports car to travel faster to the next red light.
i don't see anything wrong with that. people buy what they like.
if you need the cores, there's always the rent from cloud route. the sky's the limit if you are loaded.
Oyyy. Jacketman is a lunatic. Thats twice the cost of my pc without the card
Announcement is actually 4th for us
id pull the trigger, if i could plug my mouse and keyboard to it, oh and a monitor.
Monitor is easy. Displayport to USB-C cables will let you plug your mouse and keyboard in.
Enjoy your new GPU.
If you need the CUDA+VRAM then this a reasonable basic model card. It does not have dual bios and only uses a 3x 8pin adaptor so power limit is locked. It's huge so check you have at least 20-30cm clearance to your side panel and even then you probably you will need the Cablemod 180° adaptor once they are released. This card has also been on sale for $100 less so maybe wait for a better deal if you can.
hope you mean 20-30mm. No one has a foot of clearance to their side panel.
mm's yeah. need more coffee :P
So as long as something is under what the RRP is, it’s a deal to this website?
It's only 2.93 times faster than my 6600xt. 4k isn't worth it lol just play 1440p
Welp, 7000 series has released, Jesus Christ they did nvidia dirty
i love they ribbed them about the adapter and the power requirements.
i'm happy. getting the xtx that hits the shelf.
I’ll be keeping an eye on the 7800/7700xt when they release, might even buy one
the rrp usd999 xtx falls within my earlier 3090/4090 range.. so will just grab that one.
i'm pretty sure in that entire demo, i feel that they are focusing a bit too much on the ram/caching. so unsure if that would translate in real world performance if i'm doing pure unique throughput workloads like ML tasks.
and DP 2.1… hot damn. it's 2022. i was just complaining the other day we are still sitting on DP 1.4 for wtf reasons.
@slowmo: Yeah my main reasons for a powerful gpu is blender and occasional 1440p gaming, so I’m hoping the productivity performance is good
AMD announcement this week, will be interesting to see their offering. Very likely to switch to them :)
