It Was Only A Matter Of Time- 3090TI, 16GB 3070TI & 3050 Announcing Next Month

[JUNI0R]

Well ladies and gents, I'm sure you're all aware it was only a matter of time. It looks like NVIDIA has yet more new cards on the horizon. Somewhat excited by the 3050, will be interesting to see what it offers, less so by the 70TI and 90TI.

Maybe the existing 3070Ti will drop in price as everyone goes for the latest thing (hoping)

They've already ceased production of existing 3000 series cards... crazy, such a con job.

Nvidia Allegedly Stops RTX 3000 Production In October To Keep Prices At Peak Until 2022

© Sources claim that Nvidia is trying to manipulate the market by stopping production of all its RTX 3000 gaming GPUs at the end of October to keep prices high until next year, when updated models at that price are the norm. The move could also be planned to mitigate a possible drop in prices […]

Wh.... What?

 

[SpyderTracks]

Wh.... What?

I know, it's infuriating.

Apparently the SEC (Securities Exchange Commission in the USA) are opening an investigation into price fixing.

But this kind of behaviour is unforgiveable in normal times, but NOW???? With everything that's going on in the world??? I mean, that's just pure greed.

Bummer, maybe any in stock will drop though, mind you there aren't any 3060Ti 0r 3070Ti on the upgrade configurator at the moment

Absolutely insane.... Glad it's being looked into. Think its time to get a 6700XT 😏 😂

Think its time to get a 6700XT

That's always the other option (£742 at the moment)

Yeah, I'm really behind AMD in everything at the moment, from what I'm hearing their 7000 series GPU's are going to be pretty exceptional and possibly push nVidia into defence territory.

Think it's purely based on stock (well durr). If they have it actively in stock, you can get it as an upgrade, if it's a pre-order or OOS it's not available. As the 70TI is currently Pre-order, I'd assume that's why it's not available

That's always the other option (£742 at the moment)

I can't quite remember what the 70TI was before it went out, have a feeling it was around that though

At one point it was just under £800 (about 3 weeks ago)

Prices are insane

I got two Sapphire 6950's a load of years ago for £630 total. Can barely buy a mid range card at that price these days

My R9 390 was £300 and I think I got a 1060 for like £270

 

[AgentCooper]

These prices are beyond mental. It’s mad to think that I got a FE 3070 for £469 a year ago.

Even that was expensive but for the FE worth it

yep totally insane, think the lowest the 3070Ti has been recently is about £600

Absolutely mental. Can't believe you've never mentioned this before!
I am also a bit sad I didn't manage to nab a 3070ti at MSRP when they first dropped

yep were some good deals going then............ 😁

 

[AgentCooper]

The 3070? You know me, I don’t like bringing up the fact that I got a Founder’s Edition 3070, it’s gauche. And I don’t think people would want to know that I have a 3070 (Founder’s Edition) so I don’t try to broadcast that I managed to procure one on release day 😶

(Coop quietly prepares himself for a savaging)

Capitalism has lost it's way me thinks, now it's just daylight robbery.

Always was, they're just seeing how far they can push it which is apparently as far as they like
