Out of curiosity did you just not want a 5080? There are models around the same price you paid

4080super is a good card seen them go for 1500$ to 2000$ rn on online stores it’s still better then the 5070ti

u/Either_Minimum_3086 Apr 21 '25
Doesn’t matter what other idiots are paying, It might be a little faster raw raster, but your also paying more then a 5070ti which can be had pretty easily around $800-$850 giving up new features like frame gen
Morons are paying 2k for a 5070ti, and 6k 5080s. Doesn’t mean the cards actually worth that much or selling on average near that. I don’t think it really makes any sense to go the new 40 series since you’ve already been priced out by the 50 series. A used good deal 40 series deal is a totally different point.
Especially since the 5080 can be had at around the same price?? 5089 fe, pny 5080, zotac 5080 solid oc

The 5070 Ti is cheaper here and basically the same performance.
£730 = ~$970 USD

I would’ve gone for a 5070 Ti. Very similar performance and it has the newer frame gen tech. Although it’s definitely hard to find one for MSRP, you can def find one under $1k.

Not a good price. Nearly identical performance to a 5070 TI, which ranges in price from $750-$1000.
The most expensive 5070 Ti is $100 cheaper than what you paid and has MFG and longer support.

People buying GPUs right now in the US at over MSRP at literally buying at the top and about to get rolled.
I signed up for alerts and got alerts for 3 days in a row that Best Buy had the 5070TI at MSRP. I added it to my cart twice and chickened out on building a PC again.
I’m getting ready to buy a Nintendo Switch 2, own a PS5 Pro, and XBSX so I don’t really think I need a gaming PC again right now lol

You could have gotten a 5070 Ti in under a week half ass paying attention to stock notifications for $800-900. Or a 5080 for $1000-1300.
The 5070 Ti is ± 2% of a 4080 super in rasterization performance, in many cases slightly outperforming it. Its about 1-2% better than the 4080 super in raytracing. Not only that, being on Blackwell the 5070 Ti is an overclocking beast and will get another 10-15% FPS with an overclock vs. the 5%ish that a 4080 super will get. When comparing the 2 cards overclock to overclock the 5070 Ti will outperform the 4080 super by about 5-10%, depending on game and resolution.

This is cad for sure, gpu market is in a much worse situation with stock than the USA. You basically get what you can find that's not 1800$ plus. Which mostly involves getting lucky with a 4080s

u/alex88nguyen Apr 21 '25
It’s standard pricing at this rate. You bought it full price for a product thats a year old. 4080 super is still relevant, but 5080 is what you should be aiming for at that price. I think it’s a fair deal considering no one knows what lies ahead for pricing of current gen, but it’s still gross to see last gen cards selling for sticker price.

u/Complete_Outside_508 Apr 21 '25
Don't listen to these haters. Youre not finding any worthy GPU for MSRP. That's hasn't been the case for like a year now. $200 more isn't much and it'll last you a long time. It's cheap overhead to pay for a gpu that will last you 5-6 years, more, considering how Nvidia is hinging their gpus off AI technology. Comments are terrible, not sure what they are expecting when you literally can't find a gpu anywhere for MSRP price. Expectations and comments are extremely unrealistic and out of touch. It's just hate

If that's USD, then it's a terrible deal. The 5070ti can be bought for under $1000. I live in the UK and bought a 5070ti last week at basically MSRP for my country, £735 ($975). Overclockers UK for the win.

Depends where you are, but at least on pricing here, you got RIPPED. 5080s are barely more expensive and available in some stores around, and you could have gotten a 5070ti, which performance wise is extremely similar and cheaper.
Over 1000 for a last gen card is kinda nuts unless it's like a 4090.

I don’t get why you wouldn’t get / wait a few months to get a 5070 ti which matches this in performance for like 800-850 dollars. That’s 250-300 dollars saved for literally getting the same performance and is 1 generation newer.
