INNO3D RTX 5080 X3 16GB GPU Graphics Card $1989 + $16 Shipping ($0 NSW Pickup) @ UMKLOGIX

80

Lesser known retailer that I hadn't heard of until now but a quick google leads me to believe they are legit, sub 2K price for 5080's are hard to find. Express Shipping seems to be a flat $16 tried a few states around AU, all seem to be the same price. They say to contact in advance if you wish to pick up (I'm assuming from their Paramatta address).

Note the product page advertises a coupon but it doesn't work. Still a great price without it though.

They also have the white OC model for $2099 which is a pretty banger deal for people with white builds.

Surcharges: 0% bank deposit, 1.9% PayPal & Credit/Debit Card, 2.9% Zip.

    I heard a rumor that a 5080 is actually a 5070

      I heard a rumor that all the 5000 series are -10 series for every denomination.

    • If we go by the naming rules of the 10 and 20 series, then the gap between the 5080 and the 5090 is so big that the 5080 honestly should’ve just been called the 5060 Ti.

      That's factually incorrect. These cards are ~15% faster than the 4080 Super across various benchmarks (stock) but also have ridiculously strong / untapped overclock potential that bring them very close to and even better than the 4090 (at stock) in some games and benchmarks.

      This card was very poorly reviewed by bandwagoners at release. People didnt take the time to tinker with them at all. Recent drivers and optimisations have also helped with performance, which is more Nvidia's fault for a shitty launch.

        which is more Nvidia's fault for a shitty launch.

        Tactical launch to justify the price of the 5090. Obvious that Nvidia have handicapped the 5080 to keep that huge gap in performance with the 5090.

          No, it's because the last time NVIDIA made such a large chip for consumers, the wafer cost was maybe up to $5,000 for the node in use.

          Now it's up to $20,000, with the maximum bus size used (hasn't been used in over a decade due to cost) and with more VRAM than has ever been on a consumer GPU. Other hardware development costs have similarly increased.

          NVIDIA have also more than doubled their staff since 2019.

          The reason why the rest of the stack is so far behind is:

          1. It makes it remotely affordable
          2. It disincentivises enterprise from scooping up the chips & cards set aside for consumers to repurpose for AI servers
          3. The architecture still doesn't scale well for most gaming workloads (4090 averaging +35% over 4080 @ 4K, 5090 averaging +50% over 5080 @ 4K, 40% @ 1440p)

          AMD have the same issue, they've just been trying to solve it with a chiplet/MCM design for 4 years.

          If they're successful enough on TSMC 3nm, NVIDIA will roll out a competing model for anything that pushes past Rubin's GB202 equivalent (probably back to 600 sqmm).

        Is the link correct?

        I get this: "This video isn't available anymore"

        • +4

          The link may not work, but the info is correct, you're looking at about a 7-10% performance boost while staying within the reference power draw:

          https://www.guru3d.com/review/review-asus-tuf-geforce-rtx-50…

          Also closes the gap a little on the 5090, which can't clock as high and isn't as power efficient, but the 5070 Ti remains far better value for 4K IMO.

          @morphio Sorry that was my bad. People will downvote me to oblivion in denial. But i’m more than happy to pay sub-$2k for a GPU that competes quite well against (and even beats) a stock 4090. Hopefully this link works. The 4090 was like >$3k after prices stabilised (and dropped to like an ATL of 2.7k much later on) and won’t even have the latest DLSS and MFG features. Yes we can argue MFG isn’t great but most youtubers still prefer to have it for non-competitive games that they can get >60 base fps.

      Hadn't heard that rumour.

      Are you saying the 5080 is this gens 4080 12GB?

      The other way to look at it is that the 5090 is a larger leap over the 4090 than usual.

      One thing we can agree on is the 5080 is a rip at over $2000.

    • +5

      Yes, 5080 is crippled and should be priced around $1000 AUD.

      • Thank AMD for not competing at the top end and their weak ass performance in ray tracking

    • OFC it is and 5090 is actually a 5080Ti with more RAM.

    2K for a 16GB card is very bad.

  • +4

    I’m voting with my wallet this generation (and probably the next). $2K to play games? Stuff that and their price gauging.

    Their top end cards doubled in price.

    And they can get stuffed with their fake frame generation marketing nonsense.

    very solid for sff builds
    I think this is the smallest variant other than FE

    • Nah, smallest is probably MSI Inspire.

      • Thank you for the correction!

      • MSI inspire is 50mm (2.5 slot) and dosen't fit in a lot of smaller 2 slot cases.

        For the cases with only 50mm support, it results in intake vent turbulance when this card won't.

        The InnoX3 is strict 2 slot / 40mm and has far better compatability for SFF, especially if you are looking at cases in the 5-7L range.

  • Wait for Super Series

    • Probably a year away

    • +2

      Wait for 6000 series….then someone will say wait for 7000 series. It's never ending.

      If you don't have a card already that does what you want, need it now and can afford it, then just buy what you need.

  • ATL for a RTX 5080 was $1,895 delivered https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/906265 I think anything at that price or below is a reasonable deal if you need this card.
