Just an update to this old thread - I ended up buying a PNY 4070TI Super from Dell for $750 which after some cash back and an Amex card deal ended up around $630 after tax.
Sold the 3090 for $700, which was about... $630 after shipping and fees!
The 4070 is a little faster, cooler and uses...
Oh I agree, but from recent sale prices it looks like they go for more for whatever reason. Certainly only getting 5-600 for the 30xx makes the math worse. Probably wouldn't go through the trouble then!
Most threads I see people say the 3090 is still perfectly fine, which it is of course -- but it also looks like my 3090FE would go for $900+ on ebay, which is still $800 after fees. Maybe 'only' $700 on forum like this.
Even with the 40 series being considered overpriced, is a $1000 4080 Super...
Got it with Pixel 8 Pro purchase but already use a Galaxy Watch 5.
$210 shipped lower 48, or come pick it up for $200 around Holmdel NJ (07733).

I could see myself using this. Not having to deal with people... especially ebay... could be worth whatever cut Newegg is taking. Instant cash towards a new GPU vs dealing with listing, scams, fees etc.
Of course plenty of people on the forums here think their 3 year old computer parts should...
Selling my 34" Asus VG34VQL1B purchased in July 2021 from Amazon. Great monitor - almost perfect screen besides a stuck pixel/blemish in the top left that I didn't even notice until I was looking for it to create this post. Have the original box and can provide HDMI/Display port cable.
Still...
And just to add to this, am I crazy or was Far Cry 2 considered bad? I remember the first being a considered classic and then general disappointment about Far Cry 2 before 3 revitalized the franchise. Then again it was 15 years ago so maybe I'm misremembering...
People are gonna be suuuuuuper annoyed if DLSS 3 is very powerful and not available on 30xx cards they probably paid 2x MRSP for over the last two years.
That seems really egregious, even by evil nvidia standards. Unless there is a serious hardware limitation but even then...4
I have a...
It'll probably be a fine looking game but of course have to come out on consoles and be limited by 3-4 year old xbox/ps5 hardware when PC's have GTX 4090's in them.
I don't expect anything to be the punisher Crysis 1 was -- they waited 14 years to remaster that and used the console version...
On the surface, people complaining/returning/crying about only 2 hours for less than 10 bucks is embarrassing.
However, I wonder if the length was noted prior to purchase, would a ton of people still be returning? Or not have purchased to begin with? If I were playing a game and got...
Yeah the actual bots and fights are great. Everything else about the production -- the commentary, interviews and especially farooq, is just a total cringefest.
I guess kids are the target audience but man... I wish it were more fighting and bot weapon/battery/armor technology talk and less...
What do you mean for now? Cloud or no cloud makes zero difference in this situation, nothing more could be found that would make your comment make any sense.
Yeah, we upgraded our version today, and will apply the second patch ASAP after its available.
Rebuilding or blocking traffic to all hosts is not a realistic option for many operations.
I'm not complaining, and I'll probably buy some version of a 3080 if one becomes actually available - but its interesting how NV/AMD have just 'turned' the $1000 price point into yeah, whatever, that's an actual price bracket now.
I know there have been Titans, 2080TI's etc for a long time but...
We've been migrating to a hybrid cloud setup with AzureO365 and some AWS -- with the vendors talking our ears off about how bulletproof and redundant their solutions are.
Well, we've had more 'surprise' downtime's in the last few years than we ever had with our private cloud, which has...
I just don't care about these cards when I can't get one.
I'm not asking to be able to randomly stroll into a store and pick one up, but I'm not camping outside or setting up a damn bot to auto purchase online.
Can I get maybe 10 minutes of in stock time? Or a Microcenter hold I can go pick...
I don't remember much about the actual game/gameplay but I do remember being blown away by the graphics in the intro scene. I remember googling if it was live action, CGI or some kind of combination.
Still looks great!
First that debacle of a console "remaster" and now another Battle Royale?
I'm not even mad, I'm just disappointed.
Outside of ultra-wides, what is left of enthusiast PC gaming?
The pricing is fine, not everything has to be an amazing deal. Doesn't all have to scale perfectly linear with performance.
I get that kids have no money, but these are all high end cards and given the current competitions' pricing this is about as good as one could hope for.
If I could find...
My company switched from on site 1 day a week to 1 day every other week.
If/when I look for a new job, WFH is required -- I'm never going into an office 5 days a week again. They could offer 2x what I make now and I wouldn't go in.
Nothing to do with the pandemic, though that doesn't help!
I'd love to grab one of each, or at least a 3080 (FE). I'm not waiting in line at microcenter or maniacally refreshing a page at midnight though.
Have a feeling they will be grabbed by scalpers, miners, bots etc... I am not optimistic.
Well, if the 30xx cards are as fast as they say, we don't necessarily need DLSS for RT to be usable. Even a 'lowly' (lol) 2080 gets over 100 FPS at 1440p right now without RT.
