    Almost $100 dearer than the Eagle, but worth it. Would get WANDA OC in red instead if they have it.

    • Nah eagle runs at 1710mhz core (reference speed) and vision and gaming oc run at 1800mhz.

      • +3

        So that made me feel better about the purchase thank you.

      • +5

        not just the core speed, the heatsink, thermal pads, fans, etc better on vision.

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_VC_00wcMU&t=1138s

        • Yep instead of plastic, vision has aluminium shroud. Makes it feel less tacky. I'm pretty sure eagle has steel back plate so the same in that sense, wonder if they use better thermal paste/pads than they did for the FHR eagle

          • @Jazza2400: Thermal pads got changed (upgraded) and they also added 1 MLCC to vision R2.0 cards so its now 5+1 (previously it was 6 spcaps)

            • @Dalgona456: did the eagle rev.2 also get the thermal pads upgrade as well?

              • @babolimp: They should’ve but eagle is Gigabyte’s lowest end card so not sure about spcaps/mlcc on that. If you can, get above Vision/Gaming OC

        • is this for rev 2.0? review was from jan 1 2021. considering cancelling order on eagle OC for vision OC

          • @sxgen: vision is better than eagle, regardless of rev 1 (non-lhr) or rev 2 (lhr).

            • @[Deactivated]: i can't find any resources on vision>eagle cooling etc. other than the marketing, there are no solid details apart from the clock speed (which i assume can be modified - not that i plan on doing it)

              • @sxgen: plenty of articles and youtube, tl:dr take my word for it, get vision or gaming oc than eagle if you can.

                I was using eagle and it feels cheap and plasticky, that's just me.

                • +1

                  @[Deactivated]: alright, an additional $70 over ~4 years doesn't seem like a big deal. I'll see if i can cancel my order and get the vision

        • +1

          I have rev 1 and Was hitting thermal limit constantly even in flight Sim.

          For benchmark, 75mh/s, when most 3080 get 90-100.

          Changed front and back pads, and temps went from 105 to 65-70@full load. Hash went to 98ish.

  • +5

    can't bring myself to pay more than the $1200 that these were when scorptec had em in stock - but definitely worth the premium over the eagle model.

  • +4

    T E M P T A T I O N S D A W G

  • +1

    Only $100 more than RRP!

    • +1

      Big change from $1200 over RRP just a few days ago, if you paid that would be very painful now.

      • +7

        I like u photo profile, its a mandarin character that symbol wholesome life..

      • Update to say its closer to gaming oc than eagle with the faster core clock, aluminium shroud

        I think main difference between gaming oc and vision is gaming has 4 years warranty and dual bios

        • Would be nicer if its Aorus, even the elite, master and extreme would be much more expensive.

  • -5

    Looks like shit.

  • Price is dropping. Why? Are people buying gold now instead :D

    • +8

      When they realised ppl weren't buying the card at $2k and they have 6 months to clear stock before new cards become available and they have a shit ton of unsold cards?

      • +1

        How low can they go. That is the question…

    • +3

      We all buy at the price we are comfortable with , Afterpay discount is also a huge incentive to buy now before Sunday. We don't have crystal balls a week from now we could be paying less or the opposite , all I have to do now though is sell my 2080ti to offset the dent in my CC.

    • Nvidia and board partners scared of Intel release, dumping stock.

  • +11

    Pulled the trigger, no more HODLING. RIP 970.

    • +3

      wow! that's a huge upgrade , mucho fun to be had soon for you!

    • +2

      I'm in the same position. The 970 is still going strong but I need to let go.

      • I used to run sli with 970's and wow they used to run so hot I recall , but yes sounds like you have had a good run and last I looked 970's still fetch about $200

    • That's better than my AMD RX 480

  • Damn thought I had afterpay but didn't. $600 limit rip. I hate buy now pay laters but I want my discount…

    • I think you can still use ebay giftcards?

      • ebay gc mutually exclusive with apt payments.

        • have tested and can confirm you can combine them

          • @OzBargainingPower: damn, you're right, so you can pay the whole lot with ebay gc up to $1500, and the rest with APT and still get the 15% off. nice.

        • Facing this issue myself - so I buy multiple cards from giftcards.com.au to get $680 worth then I can use them all at once in this purchase? Appreciate any feedback

          • +1

            @Sonnyjimbo: I did the same thing earlier. Bought $700 worth of gift cards and then added that at checkout. Got the full AP 15% discount.

            • @Hasquarl: Cheers mate, so you used say a 500+200? Just want to dbl check myself since first time AP and ebay gift cards. My reading is that the gift codes can take a few hours to come via email?

            • @Hasquarl: where do u get discounted gift card? i dont get it?

  • +1

    Much better than eagle but will get 3080 ti instead

  • +8

    Wow! Who would have thought a 3080 would cost around the same as a tank of fuel in 2022!

    • except 3080 is not consumable, unless you chewed on it.

    • Car owner disease

  • Lack of RDNA2 deals is doing my head in. Super Tempted by this but i feel RSR is perfect for ultrawide, especially for games like Elden Ring that have no DLSS.

    • +1

      Prices would never had got so high in the first place if AMD wasn't hamstrung.

      Rtx 3000 is made by Samsung's 8nm fab, which isn't doing much else.

      RDNA is made on TSMC 7nm, same as AMD CPUs, and both consoles. It is sad irony that AMDs choice to use the more advanced TSMC fab is their undoing

      • well said, AMD really had nvidia by the balls but couldn't produce the stock. RIP my 6800xt FE preorder, it's still in the system…

        • I imagine they are not making rdna2 cards now as the refresh is due in April. So probably low ish stock.
          Still they should be clearing them out!

  • How would I go about getting support from the seller if something goes wrong or if I need to go ahead with an RMA? I'm overall a bit sketched out about buying from ebay but this is a ripper deal.

  • +1

    Is it worth paying extra $250 for a 3080 vs a 3070Ti

    • +3

      If you can afford it, yes. The 3070Ti is more like a 3070, the 3080 is ~ 25% increase but asking $ is around the same. It's not that you wont benefit, it's that if you can afford the extra, it is with the AP code, worth the extra imo.
      You are paying for the extra perf, just that it is actually worth it.

  • +2

    Bought this for 2k last year. No regrets, been dunking on kids on Fortnite in 4K 240fps. Good price !

  • Is the 3080 overkill for 1440P gaming or should I look at 3070ti. Games I play vary from GTAV, RD2, Forza, to CP2022 and Assasins creed etc. I guess I know its kind of future proofing as well but just curious what the brain trust think. Cheers.

    • +5

      Not overkill, especially when you want consistent higher frames. 3070Ti is more like a 3070 than a 3080. 3080 is ~ 25% better perf.

      • cool thank you.

      • If you want > 60 FPS at 1440p or more future proofing get the 3080. It's the best price / power / heat / performance balance in this series, and has 10G RAM Vs 8G.

    • didn't know there's cyberpunk 2022…

      • That's actually Car Pooling 2022

  • Lord give me the strength and deliver us from ebay

    • +2

      You can get express delivery or use couriers from eBay.

    If I wasn't still using a GTX 770 I probably would have waited for the new cards at the end of the year but these prices are finally not so horrific and will probably do me for a number of years even if it's not the best value.

    Just confirming for those that don't have a high enough AfterPay limit I bought a digital eBay gift card from the Woolworths website which unlike many lets you enter a specific dollar amount (rather than buying 5x $X cards etc) and received the digital card in 5-10 minutes. No issues using the AfterPay day discount plus the gift card to get the amount below my AfterPay limit for it to process the transaction.

    • dang… still waiting on my gift card 30min later

      • The listing still says 10+ available so hopefully it comes through in time. I missed out on the EVGA FTW3 3080's because I couldn't find a source for eBay gift cards fast enough :(

  • I ordered a 3070 ti yesterday for $940 and now starting to think maybe I should have waited and paid the extra $200-$300 for the 3080. Upgrading from a GTX 1080 running 1440p/165hz.

    Kinda wanna cancel my order and grab a 3080 lol.

  • This versus ASUS TUF 3080 at $1.4k? I've got the TUF sitting next to me and I am wondering if I should return it. Seems like the vision doesn't have dual bios, I wonder if the thermals/noise/clock speed would be different.

    • It will run much cooler (10'ish deg or so) and quieter to boot. It's up to you whether thats worth the extra $150-$200.

      Most 3080's and 3080ti's need to be undervolted (such as this). You'll loose 3% or so performance for much, much better thermals.

  • I'm running on GTX 970, I don't really NEED this right now.. but what do I do, Ozb?!

    • Follow your heart.

      Follow your wallet.

  • I'm torn between - Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3080 Vision OC Rev 2.0 or Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3080 EAGLE OC Rev 2.0
    Any advice/recommendation?

    • Vision. I actually like gaming OC with 4 years warranty, but not on this deal. So Vision. No eagle.

      • Thanks! That's what I ended up going with!

  • Pretty annoying that all these deals require Afterpay. I just want to pay and get an Oz-worthy deal.

    • +1

      Takes minutes to setup Afterpay , you can log in straight after the purchase and pay the remaining 3 payments immediately.

      • Point is would rather not mark the credit rating for the sake of small purchases.

        • Agree

    • +1

      there's a loophole where you only pay $1 with afterpay and the rest with ebay gc and still get 15% off discount.

      you'll end up with 25c afterpay repayments each lol.

    is this good for mining?

  • +1

    thanks. bought. will be quite an upgrade from my 1060 3gb.

  • this is LHR version?

  • Thanks OP.

    Looking forward to an upgrade from the 1070 Founders that I'm running at the moment!
