Hello everyone,

 

I’m trying to start a new build and I’m ironing out some details. I would like to include a new GTX 3080 in it but, they’re hard to come by. I was wondering, what is the next best GPU from Nvidia under the 30 Series? 

 

Thanks,

 

A. Santana 

 

P.S. I rather new to what is out there with computer tech, but I’m learning slowly.

As far as same performance, the 2080 TI is the closest competition but if I had to pick up a GPU for cheap in the mean time I would just snag a local 1060 6gb from a buddy you maybe know, and survive on that until pricing become reasonable because as of now its just horrible to be buying a card.

While I recommend waiting for a 3080 as I am, I completely understand the mentality as the past month or two has been quite awful trying to obtain one. The next best 30 series card would be the RTX 3070 which is still a solid option, but still hard to come by as the rest of the 30 series as of current.

If you're in the US, keep an eye out for some alerts at twitch or discord.

 

A few days ago Best Buy had a solid drop of FE RTX 3060ti and 3070 GPUs at $399/499 respectively. Several friends of mine got them.
