Do you think that is purely based on the good reviews the tuf is receiving?
OK, well that's the most expensive one.
Yeah but seriously? Why would anybody by a 3070 with restrictive 8gb and 20% slower than a 3080 when you can buy (well could) buy a 3080 for less which will smash it?
I would still rather stump up the extra £60 for the Asus TUF 3080 than pay that much for a 3070.
I thought the 3 series was meant to be offering incredible value for money? Seems customers are now happy to pay 3080 prices for 3070 cards and looking at some people giving in and buying from scalpers on the bay, people are prepared to pay more than 2080ti prices for the 3080.
Directly or indirectly. The reviews may have just led to more people wanting to buy that card over any other.
True, its such a shame a card can jump so much in price!

That is ACTUALLY RIGHT....What.... That can't be right. Jeez. Nvidia really screwed this one up. What a joke. I look forward to my 3080 in 2023 then

How ya missed that ?? AMD will have no stock either all silicone went for new consoles.
I'm tempted just to cancel my order and see what happens with AMD etc .. over the next few months and buy when there is stock available. I think that might be the best thing to do. It's not like OcUK can fulfil my order anyway.

dayum.
i had one in my basket for £650 on launch day but HSBC cucked me by blocking my payment, when i came back to checkout it had alrdy gone up so i bailed out.
gonna try my luck on the 3070's i think.. shame cos 3080 seems like a beast 4k card.

it's only the premium asus card which is 3080 prices (which is always the case with asus).
the rest of the aftermarket 3070's are still mainly around the £500 mark. altho yes if you're prepared to spend that much money on a single component you're almost better off saving up the extra £150 for a 3080.. however GL getting a 3080 for £650 any time soon ^_^
consumers/demand have dictated the prices atm, people are clearly willing to pay well over £650 for a 3080, if you want a cheap 3000 card it's gonna be a lonnnnnng wait.

hang on a second... 3070 prices have shot up by £20 since yday too. f this think im gonna wait it out til next gen.. 1070 still gets the job done for now..

Yeah prices keep going up, never understand why this happens, just because something is popular shouldn't push up the RRP.
Capitalism.
Although, if you want to split hairs, the RRP isn't being increased. It'll always be the same as Nvidia won't increase their FE price (but will likely never have stock), stockists can sell the cards for whatever they want. All down to supply and demand.

£700 for the cheapest 3080 now... That MSRP isn't being hit until mid-2021 I reckon. I'm having horrific flashbacks!
