Mod 13/9 (copy paste of the report reply): For those reporting that RRP should be in the forum or similar, there is no such guideline. As always the community will decide if it's a good deal or not via the voting system and/or comments. In general, a deal can be good value or of interest without being discounted as such, whilst a deal can be discounted but still be of little interest or poor value. In any case it's up to members to decide. In relation to potential issues about the deal details, should the deal not go ahead as posted, or another issue that breaches guidelines, it will be removed at that time. Please use TWAM for other issues and keep comments respectful. Thanks

Mod 2 15/9: Mwave has now announced there will be a raffle to purchase (that's a new one). The main deal link has been updated and the deal post moved to forums. Please join the raffle should you be interested in purchasing and continue discussion in the comments below.

    In a way, quite glad they're not offering the 3070 so I don't get tempted by any of this until I have multiple brands and choice later.

    Might even have a 3080 that is cheaper then founders like Galax that way.

      AMD's drivers were bad enough for me that Ampere cards could be twice the RRP for their entire lifetime, and I'll still buy one.

        Ditto - the 5700XT has huge sound issues running on my LG C9 TV and AMD have never fixed the issue. Switching over to Nvidia going forward.

    Obviously not a bargain but why is this being negged and not all the Nintendo stuff that gets posted here? I assume OP is posting since it is an item is in high demand and will sell out very fast, much like the nintendo stuff. thnx op.

    • Hybroid on 12/09/2020 - 21:37

      You cannot SLI RTX 3080, only the 3090…

      • AussieZed on 12/09/2020 - 21:38
        +2

        Why would you want to, though? SLI is dead and who would ever need more performance than 1 3090?

        • Hybroid on 12/09/2020 - 21:40
          +2

          RTX 3090 isn't really a gaming card. It's basically a TITAN focused on AI/ML and other use cases that need more CUDA cores. There's certainly a need for some. Not most of us.

          • DmytroP on 12/09/2020 - 22:40
            +1

            @Hybroid: 3090 is even better deal for ML than 3080 for gamers, 24GB card of such performance has never been so cheap. Certainly useful to have two or maybe even 4 of them (PSU allowing, hopefully 2KW should work) for larger models training.

        • ColdFusion on 16/09/2020 - 10:20

          Maybe if you need more GDDR6X then 24gb not sure if these will share the memory…

        You can SLI anything with a dremmel and gaffa tape mate.

    • OzLocutus on 12/09/2020 - 22:38

      Except only the 3090's will support SLI!

    • Flapjack Fire on 12/09/2020 - 23:50

      FYI: the 3080s don't have SLI connectors

  • Budju on 12/09/2020 - 21:33

    I think we can expect this sort of pricing for a few months

  • Osiris on 12/09/2020 - 21:35

    This news is everywhere post and send it to whoever you want.

    This is just that, news and full rrp that can be found on nvidias site..how are we even divided on this everyone & even the OP knows this belongs in the forums.

  • cdaddy on 12/09/2020 - 21:35

    RRP is not a bargain.

  • Skramit on 12/09/2020 - 21:36

    The same people negging probably also upvote PPSR every time it’s posted at RRP every 3 months as a “deal”.

    Unless you know how to modify it with water block, do not buy, or it will probably burn your memory and CPU by hot air blowing from strange ways.
    Deep Learning or Mining rigs rarely use FE cards since the bad thermal will ruin its performance.

    • scud70 on 12/09/2020 - 21:49

          I'd consider it but i have a nr200 itx setup and 650W PSU… Sooo it'll be borderline power wise.. So not sure. And its frikin $1.1k!!

    FYI These cards are NOT compatible with watercooling blocks from what I’ve seen

    • Budju on 12/09/2020 - 22:05

      lol yea, go the AIB models if that's your thing.

      • JMxoxo on 12/09/2020 - 22:12

        Yeah, wish there was some pricing and what was coming from those, gotta wait some more I guess.

        • Budju on 13/09/2020 - 11:00

          Demand is gonna be big for a while - hopefully their manufacturing is going into overdrive.

    • XeKToReX on 12/09/2020 - 22:08

      Think there's a Byski block for FE but that's all I've seen. Rest should be for "reference" PCB's

      • JMxoxo on 12/09/2020 - 22:14

        Hmm interesting, nice, I hadn’t seen that one yet. That’s a damn small footprint! Reminds me of the R9 Fury’s

    This is actually a bargain though.
    You can only get founders edition from mwave in Australia, so if you were to buy overseas, it would most likely be more expensive with shipping and currency conversion, assuming they are not sold out.
    So I suspect the negs are just a ploy.

  • xyron on 12/09/2020 - 22:19

    I think it's a deal especially because, now we're getting the Founders Edition cards, that should put some restraint on retailers selling the AIB models.

    • netsurfer on 12/09/2020 - 22:23

          +4

          You're in the minority. +250 likes and counting, clearly people want these cards and we didn't expect them in Aus for FE, so either way they're doing us a favour by telling us its available. And a lot of people in the market for GPU's check ozbargain so its helpful.

          • Osiris on 12/09/2020 - 22:49
            +7

            @Torch000: Kind of got nothing to do with whether people find it useful info or not. You want news visit a gaming or gpu based site, people come here for bargains. This by its very nature is not a bargain. But the mods seem happy for this site to become a mouthpiece for product announcements so I look forward to wading through more rrp in the future.

              @Osiris: Ozbargain have mouths to feed. Let it be.

        • netsurfer on 12/09/2020 - 23:56

          Site is evolving, it needs to anyway.
          With the Covid-19 situation, we are getting less bargains. PS Plus and XBox Live Gold monthly "free" games are now regular posts. So "early announcement" has been allowed.

          This series is hyped up (as it generally exceeds most people's initial expectation) so it attracts too many + votes. Anyway, nVidia has to do this as XBox Series X's GPU specs simply means Turing's lineup is not going to be good enough.

          AMD insist on announcing RDNA 2 after Zen 3 CPUs. I guess Zen 3 CPUs will give Intel a hard time and investors will be happy. AMD already released BIOS updates for X570 to support Zen 3 CPUs it seem.

          • Yve on 13/09/2020 - 01:34

            @netsurfer: Covid shouldn’t really change anything going forward with regards to the site once the situation has been dealt with.

            There’s plenty of places for you to wade through RRP posts and Ozbargain shouldn’t be the site to do so.

            If the future of Ozbargain is just product launches then god that’ll be the end of this site. Leave that stuff to the forums or elsewhere, it doesn’t belong here.

            Imagine if someone posts every AIB model of a 3080 simply because it’s a new product. Then do that for the 3070 and 3090. Yeah, no that makes no sense

      Depends on many things including big size differenve between the two cards in this deal. Not sure which you want.

      Case manufacturers provide gpu size limits, and 30x0 FE sizes are published already. You should find an answer with a quick Web search
