Promo deal on Gigabyte RTX card
Till sold out or till 19th
Gulp. Really hard to buy those. 9070XT has 80% of the performance of this for 45-50% of the price.
not to mention ppl were all going HODL when 4080s were under $1500 last year bahaha
where are they now i wonder
they still using their 1080Ti on their 1080p monitor at medium settings.
5000 series is built on the same lines as 4000, so the simple answer is they were all sold through.
look, if an idiot like me could have put 2 + 2 last year that this years gen was going to be a dud then all the nerds could have done so too and bought up cards when they were cheap, whoever is buying 50xx now is just ignorant or dont care for his hard earned $$
The 9070 XT at half the price is an infinitely better option, not a deal
Is it actually available at that price though? It's relying on stock and rebates to make that happen.
If there's stock and competitive pricing, RTX 5070 is in that same conversation if you're using all the eye candy more often.
I just checked and there's stock at $1329, so even at inflated prices its still half this 5080's price
Where has stock at that price? Can only see nitro over $1500
i got one for $1180 from centercom a few days ago. 5 week delivery time but im in no hurry. They seem to come and go off the website. Took me a while to get lucky and seeing one when it was for sale.
the 9070 XT pricing will hit > $2k soon with all the scalpers and their dogs.
Nah. AMD is steadilly resuplying. It will be going on and off. NVidia are the ones trickling nearly no stock at the moment. But the general expectation is that stocks for both should gradually improve in coming months
Holy mother of God. My thoughts were "Gee 5090s are expens…WHAT THE…
Very poor pricing on board partners for Nvidia and the fact that these GPUs were artificially inflated in price by reduced production are just very shit from Nvidia side.
Should not cope at this price. As ppl pointed out, 9070XT is better than the 5070Ti at almost 30% cheaper is the better alternative.
Putting the complexity of the RTX 5070 (non-Ti) vs RX 9070 XT debate aside, only AMD rebates for MSRP models are keeping them in touch, and those are out of stock.
They were not rebates on MSRP. The MSRP is planned to be the long term MSRP according to AMD.
The early rebates were back pay on prices retailers paid before AMD announced the MSRP prices.
There is a talk about temporary bump in MSRP card prices because of mid-term orders that rrtailers made before AMD settled pricing with AIBs.
So far those new shipments at a permanently low price haven't materialised anywhere, so it's still being maintained by rebates.
@jasswolf: Sorry but what you just wrote somehow does not make sense to me. Kinda reads like "We don't have low prices so the current low prices are based on rebates"
Yes, the long term MSRP shipments are not around yet. One of the YouTube channels explained that we are just seeing pre-launch shipments get stocked that were based off buying prices that were set before AMD push for long term MSRP price point that they have announced later.
@goodwillN1: All we have is the comment that AMD are committed to working with board partners to provide more MSRP cards, not the how and why, and how receptive board partners are to that.
For all we know AMD is breaking even after R&D costs to sell the 9700XT at this price, while board partners continue to try and feast for what remain largely basic board designs that offer very little difference between their peak efforts and the reference designs.
NVIDIA is right to clamp down on these guys when the only truly useful things they can do are maybe make cards a little quieter and maybe the odd bit of current balancing. Their work isn't worth a 15% profit margin, nor is that of the retailer.
@jasswolf: You are not wrong about AMD. We know nothing for sure.
How is NVidia clamping down on AIBs? All I see them doing is not delivering enough chips to them, likely due to their capacities being mainly used by the AI accelerator variants.
@goodwillN1: NVIDIA sell RAM and chip as a bundle to broadly improve costs for their clients, but also stipulate what aspects of board design AIBs can modify (hint: basically nothing).
"Promo Pricing"
Y'all taking the piss.
You should probably have a chat with your supplier for Gigabyte as to how a card with a launch price of $1199 USD came to get a 24% markup after GST.
Even with the current situation, you can only justify $2349 max to account for a little logistical, retail, and competitive bidding overhead for orders.
But stock's coming back in soon enough, and you've just given confirmation of that, cheers!
All of those things are factored into US prices as well…
It's not something that needs to be added to aus prices…
Shipping and shop overhead are higher here, and comparatively the ordering volume is lower as well so that's compounded. In the US right now you're seeing things at about 9% above launch pricing when there's a decent flow of stock (excluding tax and tariffs).
I am literally setting an upper limit here that reflects the worst possible value (which is actually $50 above the AU launch price) and you're giving me a negative vote that will remove my negative vote on the deal? What's your thought process here?
I don't like the AU MSRP of $2099 for the RTX 5080 and think it should be lower, but this isn't an MSRP card, and I'm using the card's global launch price as a guideline.
But the price jumps are still high in the absolute number compared to what used to be charged for prior models. Surely this is not just inflation in play but a simple capitalist greed to ride on a high yield wave while possible.
@goodwillN1: There's other factors involved that have slowed production/supply and allowed for people to do that without enough protest.
@jasswolf: I don't disagree they can do it. The market is buying. It is more the false justification that I am having a laugh at.
@goodwillN1: It's not a false justification, it's a partial explanation. Some of it can be reasonable with the outcome being not reasonable enough.
People get mad at the price of the 40 and 50 series MSRP, but NVIDIA have rapidly expanded their staffing since about 2019, and these days have double the employees.
The price of a wafer on the leading node from TSMC has almost doubled in that same time, and the cost of a wafer NVIDIA were using has more than doubled from the 30 series to the 40 & 50 series. Others will always try and get a cut of that action, even with little justification.
Something will give at some point with NVIDIA's staffing, but NVIDIA can justify the margin they take, TSMC can somewhat justify their pricing but need better competition from Samsung and Intel, while the AIBs and wholesalers can't, and NVIDIA aren't the ones taking extra right now once you account for staffing.
Hopefully pricing will ease substantially as volume grows over the next 12 months, with AI demand slowing, and TSMC customers moving over to 2nm or taking their business elsewhere.
What's the RRP in AU?
With everyone pushing prices up I can't figure it out.
For this particular model its $2300 AUD , the Base model is $2200 AUD
4090 was this price and under 2 years ago… and it still beats this card.
Grabbed both 9070 XT Red Devil and Reaper models on launch day for the missus and I for cheaper than one of these. How ridiculous.
this is not a deal mate.
stupid price
There's many other models available at this pricing and possibly slightly cheaper, maybe not apples to apples but this is just becoming OzInStock at this point…
I would personally get 9070xt (1,300 AUD) with 9950x3d (1,300 AUD expectedly) at this price.
Sad to think it's okay to promote this ridiculous price
Ridiculous. ‘5080’ is a total crock. What a crap product for the terrible price
Not a bargain, well over MSRP, as soon as more stock comes in these prices will drop.
LOL
When are the $2019 versions coming back in stock
