At the price of the FE to buy and what it costs to make? I can't see it.
$155 cooler for a start. Then the die, at around $40 and the GDDR6X and then the rest?
It was a pipe dream from the beginning.
Any one who actually trusted Nvidia? this is what you get for it. Maybe now you can all understand why I dislike them so much.

Heh, I know right. I have found it quite therapeutic reading others sharing my frustration. Sorta feel over it now, but still hope to upgrade at some point, though it may very well be an AMD GPU this time if they deliver.

This morning I was going to purchase a 3080 from OCUK, Not for me I'm helping a workmate upgrade his PC and he wants to upgrade from a 980 Ti to a 3080, Anyway the order was about to go through as I was very early when it suddenly went up £50, I cancelled it, Phoned him up and he said "those greedy bar stewards" that's the clean version of what he said, He's now waiting for AMD

Tell him there there, Gibbo has said there will be loads in October before Big Navi comes out. In the mean while Nvidia have issued an apology.

It is amusing how quickly the perception of Nvidia has gone from them being the good guys this time, with fair pricing (only cos of the 20 series though) to being very much the bad guys due to not actually having any stock.
I genuinely hope prices settle when (if?) stock actually hits acceptable levels and AMD hit the market with LOADS of stock to give people even more options.
On a side note, people's reactions / memes regarding this launch are making me feel better - quite an entertaining day really lol.
