I think 3080 FE is the best card for the dollar out there. The problem is still finding that exact one though. It’s still just a “get what you can” situation, almost a fucking year later. That’s how I ended up with a 3070 when I was originally going for a 3080. It’s just what I could get for msrp. Fuck paying a scalper.

Speaking of fucking scalpers, T Tide27 maybe Xexx will cut you a decent deal, and would be safer in terms of not getting scammed. Shipping wouldn’t be bad, he’s one state up.

I dont even sell cards anymore! Last card i had was the Gaming Z Trio 3080 i sold for 1300 - i stopped doing cards and went back to system building since its more enjoyable and i dont need a bunch of cards at a time.

Hell i havent gone in a discord cook group in a month or launched stellar in the same amount of time. Sure getting AMD cards isnt hard anyways with the script but i dont even bother to try anymore.

3080ti FE is only sold in store at best buy, its been basically 1 drop every 3 months or so. I wouldn't expect another one for a while, and virtually all of them require you to wait in line for 8-15 hours (overnight) in store to get one. 3080ti FE is $1200+tax MSRP

3080ti AIBs (third party) is pricier but easier to get, online or at microcenter. evga, aorus, etc.

personally i'd say just get the 3090 instead, its just a little more and far, far easier to get. when best buy had its last in person drop people were strolling up at open and buying 3090 AIBs at some stores. Since its $1800-2000.

also newegg product shuffle -- Popular Product Drawing Event | Newegg.com - does 3090 bundles frequently, pop in on those. I've "won" that multiple times but passed, 3090s seem far less popular in the reseller crowd.

Actually BB did in store FE drops in July and in August!

Any place to sign up for bb drops other than watching this thread?

Its usually announced a week in advance so people can buy tents and sit outside of BB for days to assure a 3080 FE

Bitcoin doesn't use graphics cards sir. Ethereum does

What does it use then?

ASIC miners

Good to know, thanks. I was being a bit generic when I said Bitcoin, but I was assuming.

Is it known how much demand and supply is related to hashing?

?

Use this and go on amd site Wednesday and Thursday 10am to 11am and check cards by trying to add to cart. If you get captcha it means stock is happening then or within 15min. If no captcha then no stock.

GPU's being scalped is in the overlapping area between capitalism and communism.

The FED printing gobs of money, driving up demand for cheap goods is your Communism, comrade.

I bought my RTX 2070 for $300 from Best Buy 2 years ago. What happened since then? Hmm...

LachiusTZ · Sep 7, 2021

More dollars, same production capacity.

Thats 8th grade math at most.

Got my queue email from evga saying I can purchase a 3080ti. $1400. Its expensive and id rather have a 6800XT, but seeing as how I can probably sell my 980ti for $250-300 it makes the price easier to justify.

How much you want for it?

Xexx · Sep 7, 2021

I doubt ill actually buy it - especially since i ordered a 6600xt for a budget build im making with a 3700x. The Ti i had in a Torrent build then took it out, but someone started inquiring to buy the PC so waiting to see if that goes through or not. Somehow Phoenix 3080Ti is cheaper than mine, he maybe has some codes left over so you can likely get him to buy it for you if you pay him - id do same but i have on codes and mine shows up as 1550 after taxes and shipping.
