Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

That's insane. Hopefully it will dampen US demand and they send the stock to us instead at our lovely normal price.

Normal aka rrp 650 bucks fards for 650 pounds ??

Haha yes. Enjoying dreaming of the prospect of actual parity at least, if 650 bucks + 25% tax, though!

Well I know that is the way we think it would work, but the reality is sometimes very different.

For example:

Nvidia US site 1070ti $449.00

Nvidia English site 1070ti £419.00

Sometimes we are cheaper than over there, they probably have to add sales tax on that aswell.

PC hardware to get more expensive - 25% tax due to US China Trade-war

@Gibbo could You share some light on this situation if it goes for UK market ?? We know You get stuff ordered Direct and get good deals for us so interested in the situation. All I see is more missinformation for EU outcome.

You won't like good whisky then

Isn't Volta around 17/18 months in now too? (professional/car use, Titan GV100 about 8/9 months old) If the new cards are Volta then I'm not gonna be v impressed. Just hope the 7nm cards are only a year or so away!

What misinformation from the EU? That only applies if you are in the US.

checked few portalss and seems everyone thinks it will bump EU prices lol

 

[redeye_uk]

do you think we'll get much change from £600 for the 1180?

 

[Squid Vicious]

I don't think you'll see any change - and will more likely need another £50 to buy an 1180

 

[scubes]

waits patiently.....

It’s gonna be more than£600 lol..

Great timing for Nvidia. If the 1180 FE arrives under £700, people will be like OMG, cheaper than I was expecting, bargain... I’ll take 2!!

If this 1180 is £600+ I'll just not buy and play on ps4 instead.

More PS4 for you then, as I doubt it will be under £600 with the pound recently slipping due to all this brexit rubbish.

I will just get the 1170, unless it is also priced silly. At least I have a 980Ti which plays majority of my steam library just fine. Also have a Nintendo Switch so I am more than prepared to not buy if priced silly.
