I was going to get a 3080 and tried for a while. I am putting it off now, maybe black friday or after Christmas, dunno. The 1080 ti will have to handle business for a while. I am getting gutters for the house. Gutters are not much more than a 3080 and less than a 3090. Weird times.

The new batteries are supposed to be cobalt free and according the Musk there is enough Lithium and Nickel in the US to supply the batteries. Musk has been openly recruiting Nickel miners that mine responsibly.

I have an EVGA 980ti and an EVGA 1080ti. I have had both cards since they were released new and the EVGA cards have worked well. At this point I plan to get an EVGA 3080. My kiddo is using the 980ti and is looking forward to my 1080ti. He is the real reason I am upgrading LOL. The HDMI port...

I signed up for the EVGA card. I can imagine that line being very very long right now. :(

I saw that too. I just clicked the sold by newegg to get rid of that.

Don't tell me that, I already feel angry about this entire thing :mad:

Dang, I nearly got this one just now, but .... :(

OH wow, the same card is now magically for sale on amazon for $1,399

I had one in my cart on newegg, but it was gone before I could finish the transaction :(

For some insane reason I figured I needed a 3080. I kind of regret it now. What a mess.

If you buy it today there is a $20 rebate available. Get the rebate form from the main newegg page. EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti DirectX 12 06G-P4-0998-KR 6GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card - Newegg.com

I won't be able to use the fancy cover, but I have an AIO bracket from an older setup that should fit nicely.

I picked one of these up and an aio cooler from amazon for it.

I was waiting for a good used 980ti, but after this, I will probably get a 1070.

I just got my 6700k and motherboard in today. Have everything but the power supply and that should arrive tomorrow.
