Pre order ETA 12/10

Not the best price when compared to EOFY sales around late June. This model has dropped as low as $1629 at centrecom but that was only for a few days according to pcpartpicker price history.

Prices generally seem to be on the rise due to a weak AUD causing higher import costs which will eventually be passed onto consumers but ngreedia is the real reason these cards are expensive.

Retailers have recently been aggressive and have already begun pricing the 4080's towards $1900-2000 which appears to be the new 'norm' with few models under $1900.

Cheapest 7900XTX I can find is $1599 at PCCG so AMD is still the better price/perf value option but with the 4080 being $130 more a case can be made for it here.

Edit: Thank you mods for fixing up the pre-order and delivery in the title

      Last week it was the 7800
      This week it is the 4080

      GPU "deals" where the OP is talking to themselves and trying to convince someone a bad price is a good deal

      Not the best price…

        Meh, I don’t mind the public service commentary and airspace to see what’s happening price wise, as part of my general OzB browsing….

        Sure, take the point not a deal per se in the scheme of things, but if you’re in the market looking to buy now/shortly, this type of post can still be helpful i reckon.

        We can all just scroll on and ignore if it don’t float our respective boats…

        Edit - though I guess that’s more what the forums are for…..

      Most used 4090's I've noticed on marketplace are around the ~$2500 mark… I would think a brand new RTX 4090 for $1900 is likely a scam.

          How do you negotiate on new GPU prices? Does your dad own the store?

        • magic8ballgag on 11/10/2023 - 10:07

          Ah, so you're one of those people that offer 25% less than the asking price. 🤮

          • JerraJones on 12/10/2023 - 19:57

            @magic8ballgag: If only it was just 25% less…

            People start by offering 50% less, facebook marketplace is such a sleezy place.

      It's a scam. I know because I dealt with him back in June. Looks like he's changed his username now to @GiftCardGuru (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/779340).

      So this is how the scam works - after you pay him, he ships a dummy parcel to a different address within your suburb. He provides the tracking number and after a while, it will say packaged delivered to XXXX postcode, but obviously, you've received nothing. The purpose of this is that he can use the tracking number as evidence in the case of a PayPal dispute and claim the item was "delivered" since the tracking number only shows the suburb it was delivered to and not the exact address and you can't prove otherwise.

      So what I did was call the courier and get the consignment note stating the exact delivery address (which clearly wasn't mine). I submitted that as evidence to Paypal and they refunded me the money.

      Funny thing was, he maintained communication all the way to the end and vehemently denied it was a scam. He claimed he couldn't find the consignment note because it was never emailed to him and he would contact the courier to investigate. One excuse after the next. I thought it was pretty funny, credit to him for trying so hard.

    4080ti rumored, Q1 2024 release, $1200 usd msrp

      I think it will fill the gap between the 4080 and 4090 but I doubt it will be $1200 USD. That would require aggressive price cuts for the 4080 and potentially cannibalise 4090 sales. My gut says it will be 1400 US

        The 4080 isnt selling well. It needs an agressive price drop. It would make sense to drop it to $899 ( theyll probably only drop down to $999) and have the ti at $1,199. Not many people are buying at the current ridiculous prices

          The question is, does nvidia care? They could push every spare mm2 of wafer into hopper and still not meet demand, so I'm not sure they really need to move units?

          • S1nn3r86 on 11/10/2023 - 08:53

            @incipient: nvidia is extremely competitive, they dont want AMD to catch up at all lol. look what the did with 4070, as soon as the 7800xt came out they dropped the price of the 4070 because it was actually competitive. they know the 4080 is a garbage price, the xtx isnt a great price either so its not much of a threat but they still want to sell cards and make AMD look worse. dropping the 4080 down to $900 usd or even just matching the XTX price makes amd look bad

            • incipient on 11/10/2023 - 11:00
              +1

              @S1nn3r86: Oh yeah absolutely if the 4080 had competition. But as you said, it doesn't. They haven't dropped prices on us 4080 for a while now, so as nothing has changed, I'm just not sure they'll drop them now is all - slow sales or not (as they don't need the sales)

        • DmytroP on 10/10/2023 - 23:05

          NVidia has a huge queue for H100 cards (with much larger margins), so the only reason to sell the consumer cards instead would be to keep the market share I guess. We need AMD/Intel to compete better.

    Thanks OP. Prices have definitely been rising due to weak AUD

    • AlexMX on 10/10/2023 - 21:56

      I would recommend most people HOLD but I have been struggling with my 1070 and I've been waiting over a year to upgrade so I pulled the trigger.

      • Watanabe1995 on 10/10/2023 - 22:02

        Same here, I even took my friend's GTX 1070 for SLI.

      • Commodore64 on 10/10/2023 - 22:05

        I would’ve held. But I need to drive 5k2k now

        • AlexMX on 10/10/2023 - 22:06

          I bought a 3440x1440p monitor so the 1070 can't drive it at all

          • Commodore64 on 10/10/2023 - 22:11

            @AlexMX: I eyed the 7900 XTX..
            But at 4K and with ray tracing the 4080 catches up or even over takes it.

            Not to mention DLSS3 and FG

          • incipient on 10/10/2023 - 23:03

            @AlexMX: Just go play factorio space exploration for 12mo, get half way through the game, and then GPUs may be cheaper! 😁

    Good price based on current market… Just not sure whether to pull the trigger now or wait for Black Friday potential deals. AUD heading south is my guess so upwards pressure coming there.

  • S1nn3r86 on 10/10/2023 - 22:25

    The 4080 has been down to $1,499 before back in june, as you wouldnt just wait for the black friday sales which is only around 6 weeks away lol. This isnt a great price, it only seem like it compared to to absurd rrp. Its by far the most insulting price of any card this gen lol theres also the rumoured 4080ti thats going to be announced at CES in january, so it would likely mean an official price drop
