    Didn't see the launch, but the benchmarks are still impressive. Not something I would wake up early for, but Iooking forward to the 3090. I'm overdue for a new gaming rig.

    Tried to buy one and in seconds it was sold out. Tried several other online vendors and all sold out. Now i’m watching the bot buyers flipping them on eBay.

    I hope they figure this out for the 3070 launch next month..that seems like a great mid-range option.

    @Melvillian Yeah I saw that video. I do think that the hype for this card is a little overblown. It really isn't double an RTX 2080. And it's still 800 dollars, which isn't pocket change.

    The GamerNexus video was pretty good and I understand where they are coming from. Still disappointed I wasn't able to snag a 3080 at launch to upgrade my 1080ti but that's life. I got an order placed on Adorama for a card but it is backordered and I have no ETA.

    Glad I didn't instantly dump my 1080ti earlier this month when I decided I was going to cop a 3080.

    I left a comment about how nvidia has conditioned everyone into thinking $700+ for a video card is a bargain.

    @netforce I have a 1080 and really want to upgrade as well. I’ve been dying to play some games like control with the ray tracing on
