        GTX 3080. The 6800 is a step down, you'd want the 6800 XT for the equivalent AMD GPU.

        The 12GB variant is actually pretty close to the 3080 Ti in performance, so definately the 3080 unless you get the 6800 much much cheaper

        The 3080. To everyone else, I don't think he was asking for suggestions, I think he was asking which one I found tempting… Which in hindsight, I should've specified, seeing how many cards were mentioned.

            @[Deactivated]: Because the difference in performance between these cards is what, 5-10% max between highest and lowest? And you've given car brands, rather than specific models. So people might assume you're saying there's no difference between a Hyundai Getz and a BMW 1 series (they're both small cars after all).

            Yes, there is differences between high and low end GPU models, but the performance difference is actually fairly minimal with the exception of some outliers. The premium models are premium because they feature things like quieter fans, better cooling, RGB, power limits, etc. They may have impacts on your system on the whole as better cooling may mean your CPU throttles less for example (12900k Intel 12th series says hi), but overall the actual performance difference is quite minimal and you pay for the quality extras (or marketing for some cards).

              The funny thing is that this is exactly what the car analogy was saying - there is basically very little differences between different brands of cars in a particular class, with the exception of some outliers.

            • BargainKen on 26/03/2022 - 17:02

              @Yekul: The differences are minimal because anything beyond stock performance provides diminishing returns. The power levels essentially need to be cranked right up into the 400-450w range to get the few extra percentage points which the higher end models seem to provide with better quality components. IMO the gains arent justified by the additional cost, typically with these higher end cards you pay 30-40% more for maybe 5-10% gain. With the 3090 at least you get the extra RAM to use for work purposes.

              The comparison was simply not valid and should be corrected.
              It would be like if one company designed the engine and car manufacturers would each design the chassis using the same engine but that’s not how the car industry works.

          Those car brands don't have an identical engine with different engine management systems and cooling. So I'm afraid it's nothing like that at all.

            Comparing 2 small cars with similar power, one a kia and the other lexus. Similar power (speed/performance), different level of quality/inclusions (basic vs better cooler on gpu).

    Hi BPC, I have a question/suggestion not entirely related to this posting: Would you be able to let us choose our own shipping methods (even if comes at a cost) and/or drop aramex as your shipping partner? They are seriously a bad company and it will start to put a dent into your business and your reputations. Just have a look under this thread: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/690560

    Don't get me wrong, I love the deals you guys been putting out and Ive basically being promoting your kraken laptops on every second gaming laptop thread here in ozbargain-because they seriously are good deals. But as good as your prices are, the weak link in your whole business is your shipping partner and no good price will make people buy your stuff if their stuff never ever get delivered on time at a remotely reasonable pace and that neither aramax's tracking nor CS system functions at all.

    • KBZ on 26/03/2022 - 03:33

      They used SF express for my delivery to SYD, arrived intact only thing I can fault was took a week.
      Tracking is terrible.
      Sms out for delivery 10am
      Sms saying was delayed at 6pm same day. Delivered next day.
      So pretty crap if you waited at home all day.
      :/ little inconvenient but getting good deals.

    • Avatar on 26/03/2022 - 08:52

      This. Aramex completely failed to deliver a package of mine in Adelaide and I ended up just losing my money.

      Every day of the week it says it's on-board for delivery but the driver will only deliver it on a random day. I spent numerous days at home expecting delivery but he came on other random days. Then they wanted to charge me for a third delivery which I refused.

      They couldn't just leave it because I live in a city apartment.

      They don't drop to Australia post.

      They don't have any drop off points in or near Adelaide CBD (they had one on their map but it was a lie and they don't drop there anymore).

      In the end they said they sent it back to the ebay seller, the ebay seller claimed they never received it and PayPal refused my refund because this whole process dragged on for more than 3 months or something.

          They rebranded from Fastway couriers, probably to help get away from their terrible reviews.

      For big purchases like this I would happily pay $20 extra shipping to have my parcel sent Auspost. Especially in my location. Aramex here are hopeless.

      Aramex shipping updates just don't work at all. Auspost tracking I get notified once onboard, and sometimes even the ETA for that day once driver starts the run.

      Hi Brrrrt,

      First of all, we really appreciated your kindness to help us explain the hardware specs/software issues under the Kraken laptop post and many other posts.

      Your professional explanations impressed many of my colleagues.

      One of our colleagues did notice the issue and related discussion under the post you mentioned above.

      Our software team immediately looked into the system. Now you can see the Auspost Shipping method poped up with most Gaming PCs when you input the suburb & postcode when checking out.

      The Software team is still figuring out why Aramex popped up as the only shipping option. There is something wrong with the Auspost API. But we should fix it soon as all developers will be back in the office on Monday.

      Personally, I did have quite a bad experience with Fastway too, so I totally understand why everyone complained about them.

      We will start reaching out to Couriers like StarTrack and see if we can offer more premium shipping options, especially with Gaming PCs.

      Please understand that we do have customers looking for more affordable shipping options. Therefore, we have to keep couriers like Aramex on the service list.

      Again, thanks for your valuable advice.

      Sincerely,
      BPC Team

        Thx BPC so much for really listening to customers comments, if we definitely can choose other couriers but NOT Arsamex, I will sure come back and consider your prebuilts as I am very impressed with all the exact brands and models of individual parts listed for each system on the description page.

      Are you sure? There seems to be a 12Gb 3080 ti too.

      I suspect that you are referring to the 10Gb 3080?

        So little difference and even outperforms 3080 Ti in some games

      The cheapest 12gb was this, it wasn't part of afterpay sales: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/689394

      How much better is a 12gb 3080 over a 10gb 3080?

      • Jiv on 26/03/2022 - 15:10

        I forgot which Steve said this, GN or HU, but gaming performance wise the better performance for the 12GB version was considered poor value given the price AT THE TIME.

        Now that the prices are falling, that observation may be a moot point.

          $60 for 12gb over the gigabyte 10gb would be worth it.

      Not according to this benchmark though:

      It seems 12GB 3080 is closer in game performance to the 10GB 3080. 3080Ti is significantly faster.

      Until they stop making them then HODL some more?

    Good deal

    This card ranked as 53th among all 55 3080s according to https://youtu.be/q_VC_00wcMU

        that video doesn't seem to test those cards individually, he probably just copy pasted other sources. Didn't see actual temp measurement, just bunch of graphs.

          It's not completely scientific as they are comparing across multiple review sites which all have their own methodology, but even someone having a look at all the data and making a subjective decision is worth something. Like doobes said, don't treat it like gospel, but it's a useful resource given most tech sites have completely given up with big comparisons of AIBs within a given model range
