Various Custom RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 Graphics Cards Priced in Germany
The $1,499 "starting price" of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 is beginning to look a lot less suggestive, as pricing of custom-design RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 graphics cards surfaced on German e-tailer Caseking.de. Prices of some of the higher trim custom RTX 3090 cards can be as high as 1,719€, including taxes, which converts to a little over $2,024 (USD, without taxes), making pre-announcement speculation of custom RTX 3090 being effectively "$2,000 cards" a lot more credible.
That said, the cheapest custom RTX 3090 we could spot in this selection goes for about 1,576€ including taxes ($1,855). Much like its MSRP, the RTX 3090 is on average 50% pricier than the RTX 2080 Ti. Prices of custom-design RTX 3080, on the other hand, are closer to what custom-design RTX 2080 went for at launch. The cheapest custom-design RTX 3080 can be had for around 756€ including taxes ($890), and the pricier ones going for 804€ including taxes ($950). It's important to note here, that prices on US retailers are quoted without taxes, whereas the EU enforces prices to be quoted inclusive of taxes.

i.e.: a 2080Ti is still 1200+ chf
(taxes excuses? nah, even with taxes include, US would still be cheaper, slightly closer to MSRP, although on import the custom taxes would level it ... :D oh and taxes should always be include ... EU enforcing it is only logical.)
man, that 420 chf RX 5700 XT is looking more and more like a sensible upgrade ... since even a 3070 will be priced like it's made of solid gold ... if i can't wait till RDNA2
i guess close to a 2070 Super is enough for 106 chf less than what my 1070 was priced at :laugh: (well ... i should change the mobo and CPU before that ... )
Pro/Gaming :) it's still gaming. Just giving a hint of what sort of performance to expect. Just like 1080ti back in the days was Ultimate Gaming. 3090 is gaming segment or Desktop if you like that one better nothing else but you can use it for whatever you want.
It is not meant for workstation workloads but it can do that as well.
You don't always have to be the arbiter :) Appreciate it anyway :)
No but really, I get itchy when I see bullshit & twisted logic, that is all.
For the record. I'm allergic to bullshit :)
3070 : 570€ - 750€
3080 : 740€ - 1000€
3090 : 1590€ - 1950€
Differences in prices are huge and it seems that the more expencive ones are heavily overclocked. Cheaper cards have two power connectors and lower power requirements. More expencive cards have three connectors and at least 100W higher power requirements. There are no information regarding clocks or other things yet.
Interesting to see how the performance differs between cards. And can AMD take its part on competition later this year.
If I were building a new rig in near future, I'd be tempted buying one of the cheaper cards. Upgrading just my RTX2060 is not an option atm, as I think none of them will fit in my (diy) itx-case anyway. Cpu, MB, memory and monitor is on the menu first, because I need them more than new gpu.
But yes, very interesting times indeed.
So you argue that 3 times the (cost) in 3 generations for the same spot is perfectly valid? Whose income other than apparently yours went up 3 times in roughly 6 and a half years? :shadedshu:
I’m not begrudging the advances in tech and performance, rather you defending this extreme rise in cost where even the 3080’s may be out of most people’s reach.
Similarly, cheapest listed RTX3080 is 740,16€. Without 16% VAT, that is 638,07€ - roughly $754.
These are also prerelease prices and will probably go down a bit.
Nvidia's German store lists RTX3090 at 1499€ and RTX3080 at 699€.
I blame AMD to some extent, they didn't launch anything remotely good, Navi was good but too late to the game and overpriced to a lesser extent than nVidia but still overpriced.
Hopefully, they try to gain back some market and bring a competitive GPU on time, to stop this insanity with prices.
I don't disagree, Navi are very good compared to Turing, price for price they are faster especially the 5700 once unlocked, but both Turing and Navi were overpriced.
Especially Without performance metrics, validated by a third party and expecting prices to drop on a launch that's over subscribed is mental.
They're not going to be cheaper , a blower cooler version isn't likely given the wattage except for the 3070 perhaps.
