ZOTAC GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER & 4070 Ti SUPER Models Appear on Amazon
ZOTAC's new range of GeForce RTX 40 SUPER graphics cards have frequently hit headlines since an unveiling at CES 2024—the Hong Kong-headquarted hardware manufacturer set the tone early, with certain models sticking to NVIDIA guide prices. Hardware sleuth, momomo_us, has continued to keep track of ZOTAC-related activity—their latest discovery being the premature sale of GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super Trinity Black Edition 16 GB models on Amazon USA. The listing popped up over the weekend, with customers greeted to a $899.99 asking price—so $100 above MSRP. It is clear that this product page was activated by mistake—the card is not available to purchase (at the time of writing).
VideoCardz proceeded to investigate further, following the initial find (courtesy of momomo_us)—their weekend sleuthing efforts have outed additional premature ZOTAC listings on Amazon.com. In the GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER category we can see the AMP Extreme AIRO version ($1399.99), Trinity OC White Edition ($1349.99) and Trinity Black Edition ($1299.99). Moving down the line—with 4070 Ti SUPER cards—listings appeared for AMP HOLO ($969.99), Trinity OC White Edition ($939.99) and the aforementioned Trinity Black Edition (non-overclocked) coming in at $899.99. They also tracked down PNY's GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER 16 GB XLR8 Gaming VERTO EPIC-X RGB graphics card—its Amazon price listing was reported as being a semi-wallet friendly $1049 (prior to deactivation).

They are wild.
On the other hand the extra L2 Cache (64MB vs 48MB) might help the 4080 SUPER a bit.
It's really them who set that price since they're the ones who allow it to be shipped and sold by Amazon.com itself here in the US.
But there are some rumors that none of the Super cards will come in any significant numbers. So they might as well push the price, they can't sell tons of them.
Nvidia can still channel some revenue from AI to gaming sector in their financial report, and claim a pure win with the new releases. The fact that Mindfactory sales numbers, Steam Survey show that almost noone buys Ada cards isn't really relevant.
