Just noticed that Umart has a flash sale on the the new Nividia GTX 4080 cards.
https://www.umart.com.au/pc-parts/computer-parts/graphics-ca…
They've reduced the price by up to $200 for quite a few of their cards. (only 1 card at the $200 discount, but quite a few Gigabytes are $100 off).
Comparing other computer stores, Umart flash sale prices do seem to be less than other stores.
I haven't posted this as a bargain, as I don't believe that the 4080 cards are value for money, but to discount a new product after less than 2 days potentially shows that the Australian pricing for these cards was too high.

a 4080 should cost $1200-$1500 mark, nvidia are really trying to milk all their customers
It sounds like there is a lot of stock on shelves world wide. People who don't care about the cost buy a 4090.
Then there is the RX 7900 XTX coming out soon.
I just don't get who would buy a 4080 at these prices.
$2,139 from eBay Computer Alliance if you were thinking buying one. You'll need to use Zip pay though and have a sufficiently high enough credit limit to get it.
As for me — don't think I will pay more than $1k on a GPU. I don't play games enough to justify spending so much on something I don't use for work and can't claim as business expense for tax return
Down from two kidneys to one?
I'll probably end up getting a used 3080ti for $1k
Just wait, it will come down as it was over priced when released
They still appear to be incorrectly priced.
I am not paying fkn scalper pandemic prices.Stuff Umart. Charged a 30% markup on a product through their amazon store and told me to shove it when I flagged the price difference to their site. Not that they're up front about it, going by the name "TRAMU" there.
second hand 3080 mining card will do the job for years.. if your invested in nvidia, probs time to sell your shares.
maybe they were expecting more hype and people snapping them up in FOMO
