Third party willl offer you a plethora of choices, so you might want to wait until the cards are out and there are reviews available .I'm looking to upgrade my old 1080 to a 3080 as soon as they launch later this month. Should I try to pick up a founders edition card, or a third party? Are there any benefits to going one route or the other?
Also Founders Edition will be expensive as will vendors renditions as well. You can forget the pricing nVidia gave that is nonsense. Your going to have vendors with overclock editions and you will end up paying 300 or 500 more then what nVidia stated especially during these times with covid-19 and what not.
Definitely not the case in the UK. Several 3rd party versions listed at NVidia’s RRP https://www.overclockers.co.uk/pc-components/graphics-cards/nvidia/geforce-rtx-3080?sSort=3Also Founders Edition will be expensive as will vendors renditions as well.

Didn't know that, however the MSRP in your country and US is different. Your paying a lot more. Basically no one will find these cards for MSRP in US Dollar. 🤷♀️💯😲🚔Definitely not the case in the UK.

Once you adjust for VAT and FX which are not in NVidia’s or retailers control the prices are effectively the same.Didn't know that, however the MSRP in your country and US is different. Your paying a lot more. Basically no one will find these cards for MSRP in US Dollar. 🤷♀️💯😲🚔
I understand but at the end of the day other countries are paying 200 or 300 dollars more for any technology that is this big. You guys pay more for everything. So in US dollar what your paying is probably about 300 or 400 more then the US Dollar MSRP ya know. ✌♻😲✝Once you adjust for VAT and FX which are not in NVidia’s or retailers control the prices are effectively the same.
