Should I sell my 2080 or wait

[Jedibrysen]

I have an MSI rtx 2080 gaming x trio. And i want to get the 3080 but im not sure when to sell my current card should i do it right now for the best price i can get or wait for benchmarks and lose 50-100$. I want to get the FE 3080 because of the new cooling. and if i sell my 2080 i have to use a 1050ti

its lost a lot of value simply due to the announcement, if benchmarks turn out to show that ampere sucks then youll have wanted to keep it, if ampere actually turns out to be as good as advertised then itll lose more value. ya like gambling?

I'd wait for the inevitable "why can't I find any of these new cards" "damn miners" backlash that will pop up a few weeks after launch.

i would not be surprised in the slightest if supply issues in the next few months causes prices to go higher than pre-announcement lol

Yeah I see that

Adjusting for 24 months and selling the 1080ti the 2080 cost me less than $10/mo over its lifetime and that came out of profits from mining.  Its not going to be the end of the world getting even 350 although it will probably go for 400-450.  I wouldn't sell now because what if you don't get it for a month or two?

i'd keep fishing for offers, there's no way it's faster than a 3070 at this point, by that logic the 2080 is worth like 400 new, if you get 400dollars for ur 2080, thats a good deal for u, 300, ur call. at a certain point, just keep it as a backup or use it on a media pc lol.

Keep it. Build a second system ready for 2080 for folding and wait for navi2 launch. Then make your decision...

[Jedibrysen]

So keep my 2080 and wait a couple months

So if RDNA2 ends up releasing a card with double the performance of the 3090 at $500, you're still not even going to consider them? That's how Nvidia gets to the point of being able to price everything so insanely expensive. (like the RTX 2000 series)

the thing is they wont leaked performance shows $600 for a card in between 3070 and 3080 smh

So leaks are never wrong?

 

Seriously, you really refuse to even consider that AMD could do better than Nvidia at anything?

I have a1080ti gaming x trio and I'm not upgrading nor selling it any time soon...I will wait for MSI gaming x trio rtx 3080 super next year haha

 

I don't want no stock Nvidia card I much rather have a fancy quiet overclocking friendly card.

dude, biking is great. give it a shot. my advice is hold onto it, buy your desired gpu, then once you have the gpu secured and in your home, sell your 2080

I mean the leakers are usually very close. Trust me it isnt going to be double. And plus I like Nvidia inspector. Amd doesn’t have anything like that. I also like Nvidia control panel a lot better.
