But as far as deals go, this is an all time low i believe. 3 year warranty and they have stock at most stores at time of posting. So local pickup for the price in the title should be available.

      1440p average fps wont even use a 240fps 1440p monitor to it's fullest extent.

      https://youtu.be/aQklDR8nv8U?t=895

      4k won't even utilize a 144hz 4k monitor let alone the 240hz 4k monitors out now.

      Yes all games don't need to be maxed out or high fps but you also don't NEED to play games at anything more than 1080p 30 fps, Need should not be in your vocabulary when it comes with buying the most powerful GPU on the market, this card is purely a want.

      • picket23 on 24/02/2023 - 22:16

        As @Axelstrife above said, 4090 can't even dominate some current titles at higher res and refresh rates.

        But sure, if you only spend $250 on your 1080p monitor don't spend $2500 on your GPU.

        I would say don't spend $2500 on a GPU regardless but I guess some people take more pride and/or enjoyment in playing games without visual compromises than me.

      Training a Stable Diffusion model without cutting corners requires 24gb of vram, and unfortunately the 3090 is long discontinued so can't be bought new. Both are very big upfront costs but a second hand 3090 doesn't come with warranty if things go south somehow, and many of the recently sold ebay listings look like they were imported from China where they were potentially not treated well in crypto mining farms.

      It's a tough situation to be in when my income is currently boosted by AI tools but getting the proper hardware for them requires balancing two very off-putting choices.

      There's pretty much no reason to buy this just for personal use unless you just have too much money to burn.

      Tbh what people can afford or justify varies dramatically among the OzB demographic. If someone has been saving up for a GPU upgrade, or has an income that can accommodate this as a discretionary expense, why wouldn't they buy this for personal use?

    Just reposting my experience trying to purchase an RTX 4080 from Centrecom during the previous deal:

    Placed an order early Sunday morning. They requested credit card verification by transferring a small amount to my account and asking for that exact amount, fair enough.

    Noticed that my order was stuck in the "Further Action" status, so reached out for what that could mean. Got an email stating:

    In order to validate this order, due to the value and risk indicators, we need to request the following information:

    • Obscured copy/photo of the card used showing last 3 digits and expiry date (doesn't need to be entire card shown/pictured).
    • One recent utility bill (power/water etc), rates bill, bank statement, or similarly acceptable document showing the purchaser's name and the shipping address.
    • Photo ID/Drivers License.

    We require ALL information above…

    We apologize for the inconvenience, however, due to the high risk of this order and no bank coverage we need additional information.

    What the hell is that all about? Are they trying to renew my passport or something? You'd be insane to hand over all that to any company.

    Asked to cancel and refund the order. The deal is "good", but it's not worth that.

    This might only happen for some new accounts (which mine was). However it doesn't seem to be limited to just credit cards, as a couple of people on reddit experienced the same thing with paypal (one, two)

    Not going to neg the "deal", as if you already have an account with a previous purchase it will probably go fine, but if anyone else gets the same request from them, I'd strongly recommend against proceeding.

          Although it could also be one party working there that's using this Avenue to collect this data to sell or use, as paranoid as it all sounds it's definitely data we shouldn't have to share just to buy from the store. Especially when Reddit has examples even with PayPal who do all the required checks for CCs added to their platform

    Very nice price, but I really get the impression that the GPU market is in free-fall right at this moment, and trying to buy a high-end card now would be like trying to catch a falling knife. I'm thinking I'll wait until a 4080 Ti is released which uses the same AD102 die as the 4090 just with a few cores disabled and a few GB less of VRAM. I'm thinking a GPU like that will be going for well under $2k in 12 months from now… Assuming of course that the Fed doesn't crank up the QE again…

    • Axelstrife on 24/02/2023 - 22:36
      +2

      Nvidia wants to hold onto the mid covid/crypto mining prices so there no chance we will see under 2k for a 4090 performance card when the 4080 is around 2k (1.8k on sale). AMD's offering isnt much competition but it's also high in price.

      • Gamer Dad Reviews on 24/02/2023 - 22:47

        Rumours I'm reading is that a massive price cut is in the wings for the RTX 4080 because no-one but no-one is buying it for its current asking price.

          I think you have have old info, those rumors are from back before the 7900 xtx and xt was released and we all know how much of a let down those where so i really don't think there's any massive price cut for the 4080, maybe a slight one but nothing massive.

          • GandalfTheCheap on 25/02/2023 - 00:50
            +3

            @Axelstrife: The "prices will stay this high long term" narrative ignores basic maths.

            Even if these double prices are netting them triple the normal profits, that's not enough for them to lost the entire bottom 90% of the market.

            There are many many times more buyers who simply can't afford a $1500-3000 GPU than can. And another large percentage who simply won't.

            Besides, they don't have to lose these buyers. They just have to wait until every last gullible sucker (who can afford a high-end card) has bought one, and only THEN discount and release 4060/4050/etc.

            That way they milk every last dummy, AND make a profit from the sensible buyers too.

            It's frustrating that the numpties keep delaying discounts by buying them at full price, but it can't last forever (and all sales numbers I've seen point to it not lasting too much longer).

              @GandalfTheCheap: People have short memories. This happens every gen, high end cards only, midrange don't get released until May. And every time without fail, people are surprised that the midrange cards aren't available on 1 January because they were "promised" in Q1.

              This generation is particularly bad as Nvidia have no competition at the high end, these cards are selling to people using them for Ai/GPU compute. Those buyers are obviously going to run out soon so I agree, big price cuts soon.

              However Nvidia's board partners learned not to pass on discounts last gen, we will see a return of bundle deals first.

      • theadeptus1 on 25/02/2023 - 16:45

        actually here in aus the 4080 is a much better deal (with the pny model at $1800) than the cheapest 7900XTX for roughly same price.

    • Kazusa on 24/02/2023 - 23:29

      Nvidia should still be fine with the current drive in demand from AI technology so I don't believe it's in free-fall.
      I suspect they'll try to keep prices high such that when they release business variant cards they can price gouge enterprises.
      Considering that they charge 3-4x the price of an equivalent performance card for the previous generations of Quadro RTX, it's likely they will earn significantly more by holding the current prices of consumer grade gpus once they release Ada variant A100 and A6000 cards.

      Yep people who paid 3k to scalpers back then have ensured the flagship/halo/vanity cards will always be crazy priced at launch, and for as long as possible after.

      But in 10 years we'll see 4090 performance for a more reasonable price, from used 4090s, 5080s, 6070s, and 7060s…

      Until then, I can live with
      - using DLSS,
      - using high settings instead of max in games where that makes no real difference,
      - 1080p in games I want 120FPS in,

      etc.

      Why have you set such an arbitrary target price?

      Not picking on you, plenty of commenters on gpu threads saying similar things.

      If you're willing to spend $2800 , why not splurge +7% for $3k and get the card months earlier? (and save yourself time hunting it).

      If you can't afford an extra $200, why are you willing to spend $2800?? Why aren't you buying an rx6600 for $300-350?

      I just can't fathom this sort of reasoning at all.

      • pharcyde on 25/02/2023 - 19:44

        It's so weird but I think it's some mixture of stubbornness and entitlement. I've seen GPU deals in the past where people comment something along the lines of "I will NOT purchase unless it is below ($20 less than deal price)".

        It's because in their mind, they are reluctant to spend this amount of money, or they feel this price tag is still too expensive. So they wait for a 'bargain' to feel better inside. It's to justify the amount of spending on such an expensive toy.

          These replies make sense.

          Why do I know? Because I'm doing the same, and thinking as the same…. You got a great point there tho - buy early, enjoy early.

          Either buy early for a few % more and enjoy earlier, or… resign yourself to put the money toward your mortgage and have a more modest entertainment budget ;)
          Everyone's budgets and wants/needs are different, although personally i lean to the latter more than the former. I'd love a 4090 but wouldn't spend anywhere near that amount on a single source of entertainment until my mortgage/car/whatever is paid off.

            @ssfps:

            then you'll be in your 40s, 50s or even 60s, when you are too old to play games anymore….

            remember, buy early, enjoy early, yeah? Life is unfair, and aging is scary.

        My card can't go above 3k also I don't think 4090 is worth more then $2800AUD…
        I'm not buying until another 2 or so months anyway. This is a budgeted purchase.
