Massdrop is offering the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 WINDFORCE OC 8G for $450 USD + I got $17.95 shipping, adding those gives me a total of around $468 USD converts to around $618 AUD, which is still pretty cheap considering cheapest we can get here in AU is around $800

I don't know, I was reading the discussions on the mass drop about it, maybe we don't get it, would bring the price down to $617
That was a reply to someone who was asking about UK and Ireland.
Yea I fixed it, thanks. Cheaper than umart now :p
I know AMD cards are the worst offenders here but isn't it a pretty bad time to be buying a GPU, even Pascal cards, due to the Ethereum mining craze?
1080 is not a good choice for mining. 1070/1080TIs on the other hand…
Depends. If you have a rx470/480/570/580 etc, now is a great time to sell your card and upgrade.
I flipped my 4Gb rx480 on Monday for $450 and lucked out by finding a second hand 1080 for $463.
Or u could have mined for 2 months and got both cards
Doesn't the cost of electricity in Australia make mining infeasible?
@iMagoo: Pretty much, but everyone just reads click bate articles and regurgitates the info even if it doesn't apply to them.
@KLoNe:
No, not even close!
It is many times profitable on the right cards,
e.g https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator/eth?HashingP… (GTX1060 6GB) Just convert from USD to AUD.
@Namesareapain: Sure, with difficulty sky-rocketing every day you should make your money back, like never… if your rig never goes down.
Where the profanity did you find a 1080 so cheap? I've had such bad luck trying to find a decently priced 1070 or 80.
Ebay
got a brand new gtx 1080 from PNY for 670.
@Reggienator: lol you missed out duuuuuuudeee, what GPU you have now?
I'm upgrading from Gtx 980 to 1080 Ti, waiting is what we can do, more tax return deals
@TheMoDz:
I was hoping to sell my rx 480 on ebay and upgrade. But seems ive missed out on all the bargain 1070s/80s.
@Reggienator: patience, we wait, because ive pulled the trigger on many things here then the next day i see a better one, I die a little bit inside :(
That wouldn't happen to be the MSI 1080 a couple nights ago? Which seller said had tried to use in sli? If so I clicked buy it now and it was sold :(
It gives you a reason to save up more for the 1080.
Drop ended. No more stock I guess
"customs will be 20% extra?"
Whats this about?
BTW Umart sells this for $699 http://www.umart.com.au/umart1/pro/Products-details.phtml?bi…
