News GeForce RTX 3080 Ti's Final Specs May Have Just Been Leaked

This article is written from the perspective that we live in normal times. The general public will find it next to impossible to snag a 3080Ti at MSRP. It’s as if we live in a bubble and it’s 2019.

The other question is what kind of real world gaming performance will this card have over the 3080?
 
We're past the point of gpu tiers. MSRP is an illusion. retailers will mark these well above that established baseline and there wont be any availability because people will buy whatever gpu happens to be on the shelf at the time.

Another paper launch incoming yay! Does anyone even care anymore?
There haven't been any paper launches. There are plenty of people that have gotten cards at launch. And if you really think none are going on sale, feel free to check out Ebay which will have plenty of cards listed within hours of the official launch. If you have enough money you'll be able to buy a card.
 
That MSRP makes no sense, the 3080ti on paper is almost a 3090 and 12gb vram does not make up for $400. 1300 MSRP or higher is more realistic that is if MSRP carried any value, in term of performance speculated the 3080 ti should cost about the same of a 3090 since it is almost as fast

Have you ever hear for premium price? 6900xt is 6800xt's price +50% for almost nothing - 5-10% more performance and same memory size.
 
Hopefully, this will lower the price of RTX 3090. I tried to buy either an RTX 3090 or RTX a4000 for rendering, but the exorbitant prices make it impossible. And RTX a4000 is unavailable.
 
Yay! Yet another GPU launch for, well, who? Miners? Newegg shuffle? A few here and there at exorbitant prices around the Web? Scams galore on ebay? Another launch of another unavailable graphics card. Lovely.

I'm just going to comment, "Duh." And if you want, you can go out on EBay and purchase used mining GPUs as well. Honestly, TH just needs to stop covering GPUs until we're through this nonsense.

I am currently in my second GPU buying debacle on eBay. The first was misrepresented and malfunctioning. The second never arrived. Mysteriously, the day after I open a case, a complete shipping history appeared for the item claiming it had been delivered 7 days prior. Not so much. It never arrived. Seven others have experienced the same problem.

The big point here is, the atmosphere on eBay is not safe for buying these products. It's especially dangerous to consumers with the severely inflated prices. Just because there is an auction or buy it now button, doesn't indicate the actual availability of a/the product.
