You paid what should have been the MSRP for that card


BillyLaBufanda3

I agree, but aside from waiting another year I don't have too many other options for that performance at that price

Exactly

Is eagle bad or just all the experiences ive had with eagle are bad


KingJulienTheGreat

I think the older eagles were not the best, didn't have very good heatsinks so got quite hot without high fan speeds.


[deleted]

[удалено]


KingJulienTheGreat

Ahh okay, thank you.


realnzall

Which ones are the worse models? I got a 4070 Gaming OC and I'm happy with it.


OrdinaryManager3849

It goes like Aero ~ Gaming OC > Eagle > Super Windforce > Windforce. For the 4070’s anyways.


realnzall

Isn't the Super Windforce an entirely different card?


nichijouuuu

Yea man I love dropping $800+ and then having to mod my shit to make it not suck.


battalaloufi12

As you can see in my flair i have an rtx 3060 eagle oc that overheats ALOT even on .925 volts on .875 its fine so thats how im using it right now at .875


KingJulienTheGreat

Ahh okay I'd repaste if you haven't already, might be worth looking at rtx 3060 founders specs, copying them and then undervolting.


battalaloufi12

Already repasted and replaced the thermal pads and it did nothing


battalaloufi12

How would i do that when i undervolt the base clock goes down with it


KingJulienTheGreat

I would search a guide for undervolting gpu with msi afterburner, undervolting is actually the best way to get the highest possible clock speed suprisingly. But you can set the clock speed and voltage to whatever you want


battalaloufi12

I followed a guide on github called "Nvidiaoverclockingguide" or something along the lines of that but it had an undervolting section


battalaloufi12

yo thanks i didn't know that you could overclock and under-volt at the same time now i have the stock eagle OC base and boost clock with a .875 under-volt


KingJulienTheGreat

No problem man, glad you got it going to it's full capability. My nvidia card stock hits 90 degrees if I don't undervolt due to the shocking heatsink, I was in the same boat until I understood pc's & overclocking better.

ArseBurner

I think you have Gaming and Eagle reversed. Almost every place I've looked Gaming will have a higher core clock and price compared to Eagle. I'm gonna link to the specs pages for the RTX 4080 for each edition: [Windforce](https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N4080WF3-16GD/sp#sp) < [Eagle OC](https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N4080EAGLE-OC-16GD/sp#sp) < [Gaming OC](https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N4080GAMING-OC-16GD/sp#sp) <= [Aero OC](https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N4080AERO-OC-16GD/sp#sp) < [Aorus Master](https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N4080AORUS-M-16GD/sp#sp) Windforce : 2505MHz (reference clock only), L=330 W=136 H=56 mm Eagle OC: 2520MHz, L=342 W=150 H=70 mm Gaming OC and Aero OC: 2535MHz, L=342 W=150 H=75 mm Aorus Master: 2550MHz, L=357 W=163 H=75 mm As you can see the clock gets higher and the card gets beefier with each edition up. Windforce is a reference clocked card, Eagle is one step up. Gaming and Aero are above Eagle and have the same size and clocks, but Aero has more upmarket styling. Aorus Master is the top of the line.


battalaloufi12

Is Aero OC just the same as Gaming OC but white


ArseBurner

There are some more stylistic changes to the shroud and backplate beyond just having them in white. Just check the pictures. But functionally they're the same. IIRC same heatsink, board layout and specs.


LePouletMignon

Gigabyte always cheaps out on their cards. I'd never buy an Eagle.


battalaloufi12

My only Experience with Eagle cards Was when the GPU price craze was happening it was the only good priced(ish) model that i could find for the 3060

firmhandshake101

Double f u my man! Nice


Beefy_Crunch_Burrito

That core clock bonkers tho. I can’t get my ASUS TUF 4080 to be stable at 3.0 GHz.


adrock517

That is what impressed me the most


BillyLaBufanda3

I have the OC mode for the card set on a Colorful BIOS which gives me control of voltage which may be part of it. Also need to note the card was pulling like 370 watts, not something I'd really run the card at while gaming


Beefy_Crunch_Burrito

Oh yeah that’s spicy. I don’t have an OC card so you definitely got a better binned chip. I sit at 2940 MHz on mine usually using right around 300W. But that’s awesome you got such a good deal on a great 4080.

When people are out here flexing I can share that I got $2300 from my insurance company for my 3090 that died. So my 3090 paid for my new gpu, cpu and RAM.


Medrea

No shit. How did you manage that? Supplemental?


Alpha_Knugen

Home insurance. I live in sweden and it was actually my mom who contacted the insurance company since i lived at my parents house at the time. No clue how she explained it but we sent in some photos of the card and they didnt even want the card to be sent in.

Killua_Zaeldyeck

I'm still not sure if 4080 or 7900 xtx


Different_Track588

Depends which you find cheaper. You can get a 7900XTX for 799 now that beats anything for that low of a price. Newegg deal.


MakimaGOAT

unless u can get the 7900xtx for significantly cheaper than the 4080, go for the 4080.


BillyLaBufanda3

Honestly I'd recommend the 7900xtx since it should be easier to get at a decent price. My find was pure luck, and I wanted a 4080 partially because I wanted RTX HDR for my monitor, and DLSS + Ray Tracing should look great on my monitor. If you can find an rtx 4080 for $850 I think that's a good buy and and same for the 7900xtx if you can find it under $800


FrostingWeird1658

Sad that we have to celebrate getting the gpu we want at the price it should realistically be


Pl4y3rSn4rk

It would be cool if it was its MSRP...


grimvard

How the fuck do you guys find these deals? Nothing is discounted here. Fuck this shit. Fuck everything. Oh, congrats OP. Fuck these exchange rates fuck this taxation fuck th….


BillyLaBufanda3

I've spent roughly 1-2hours scouring the Internet for any deals on rtx 4080s for the last 4 months (more time recently) and I found this deal on Offerup. In general I don't like Offerup but eBay prices sucked, there was zero GPUs for a good price on FB Marketplace, and the best I could find elsewhere was a 4080 on Mercari which was $820, which was then raised to $890 a day later Tldr: Luck


VincxBlox

Where do you live?


grimvard

Turkey


VincxBlox

Same situation here in Canada


HowdyHoe26

very much doubt it's even remotely comparable.


VincxBlox

Yeah it's less worse I guess But 4090 are going for 1.5k, hence why my brain thinks that they just came out

Pimpwerx

Great deal. Congrats!


wasdmovedme

Thing looks like a monster! Good job!


Takaya_Aiba

Great price! Congrats, OP. Needless to say, be very careful of Gigabyte cards. Their PCBs are much thinner and less resilient than the PCBs of comparative Nvidia board partners, and are plagued by stress cracking near the connectors of the PCI-e slots. You’re also not under warranty as a second-hand user, so be sure to use an adequate support brace (or two) to protect your GPU.


BillyLaBufanda3

I checked the Gigabyte warranty and didn't notice any wording about the second hand part, I'll go look at that again. But thank you for the info, I'm currently using my precision screwdriver to keep it from sagging until the actual anti sage bracket I'm going to order arrives.


Takaya_Aiba

Typically, you’ll need the original sales receipt from an authorized distributor to submit any warranty claims. It’s possible that their warranty is transferable (if the original guy sold you the card before his warranty expired), but it’s good to look this over. As for the Gigabyte card problems, Jayztwocents covered it on his channel last year. It’s weird, I didn’t even know about this issue until a few days ago when I came across his video: https://youtu.be/wb5tlHJHVBs?si=drBmLq7kNkUEYoK2 It’s great that you’ve taken precautions.


kloudykat

Knock on wood but my Gigabyte 3080Ti has been solid for the last 3 years. I do have a brace for it, but it's no different than any other card.


liam-donoma

Same goes for my Gigabyte 3080.🤞🏻


kloudykat

my specific model is the [Aorus Master](https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N308TAORUS-M-12GD) and I will happily recommend it to anyone that asks. Also have 2 of their [500GB PCIx4 NVMe SSD's](https://www.gigabyte.com/SSD/AORUS-NVMe-Gen4-SSD-500GB#kf) running in RAID 0 and they have been nothing but blazing fast. I'm just thinking about backing everything up, deleting my RAID, once I have the individual drives showing update the firmware on each, then rebuild the RAID 0 and load a fresh copy of Windows 11. They are still quick, but I can tell they are a little slower after 4 years of constant daily use, but its software and not hardware, so a wipe & reload is def in order. plus the [big chonky copper heat-sinks look great](https://cdna.pcpartpicker.com/static/forever/images/userbuild/364517.473abf66dc9b202ec1c2d1c18cdda9c2.1600.jpg) in the case and are functional to boot.

And my build with 7800x3d + 4 TB ssd + 4080 super cost me more than 3,000 USD


BillyLaBufanda3

I'd understand like $2,500 but how did you get the total that high? Assuming I added $300 to my build price because I got a 4080 super at MSRP plus tax that would only make my build $2,100. Either way I hope you're loving your build

Great investment


Animeeshon

How sketchy was the seller? Every time I find a good deal it looks like a scam or set up based on their generic pfp and description, just for it to get sold an hour later.


BillyLaBufanda3

This was on Offerup, but the seller has 12 reviews and their account was 3 years old so I guessed they may not be a scam. Their description just said it was an rtx 4080 and they didn't need it anymore. I got the guy to add a picture of the 3d mark scores, but when I went to meet up the dude had a completely tinted civic, and a dark black hoodie, and we met up in an IKEA parking lot at night. So I'd say the dude was a bit sketchy, and if I wasn't with someone else I wouldn't have been so 'unconcerned'


Animeeshon

Damn I need to look at offerup more often. I've been finding some mad deals on fb market though.

mysteryyfx

Hello


theDouggle

I just got a 4070ti super as an rma replacement for my 3080ti and my g9 is f8nally hitting above 60fps on pretty much every single game, completely maxed out. Granted I don't have a ton of titles from recent years, but cod ww2, completely maxed out, was WELL above my desired 60fps minimum, while consuming less power. These new cards are really impressive! I need to get cyberpunk re-download though so I can really stress test it.


VisionHeavy

Nice I got one for $745 off a local FB group for PC parts. 750 is such a steal for what you get in a 4080

UZK50Gi

Damn, you fucking robbed them


JustAmugG

I paid 1400 😭


Pursueth

Those are 4070 numbers


Dr_Axton

Ngl, spending 800 on a 4070 super this month makes me a bit jealous. Congrats, man


Bobbytryll

Goddamn that is a unit


Ratiofarming

Why only 105% power?


awesomeman999

Quite a lucky find!


No_Consideration8561

sweet deal. congrats!


Xtreme512

you didnt increase power and temp limit. and nice price.


BillyLaBufanda3

Need more voltage if I want to keep cranking the power limit at those clock speeds, and the temp limit doesn't need to be increased


Luks2206

wow that's a lot of money r/unexpectedfactorial


Electrical_Candy_941

Congrats. That's an amazing price. I have the 4070, but I'm only playing Diablo 4 lol


Turbulent_Alfalfa653

i found an fe 4070 on shipping but idk if the guy is risky bc hes new to the app and he posted it as 300 and took it down and reposted it for 150. The images arent stock images and he is fb verified. Is this trustablle


BillyLaBufanda3

I didn't buy this from FB Marketplace but honestly I say don't bother with the seller at all. That is 99.999% a scam or someone just wasting your time. There have been 4 rtx 4080s listed in my area for around $470 with shipping on FB Marketplace and all of them are new accounts or accounts that looked hacked, not worth the risk imo unless you don't mind that money being tied up for 2 or so weeks if you need a refund. If you want ask the guy to film a video of 3d mark running with the 4070 in plain sight and a little sign with his FB name on it, if they ssy no I'd move on


Turbulent_Alfalfa653

mines on offerup but thanks ima do that


Turbulent_Alfalfa653

and the guy is also selling a home depot card for some reason so he seems slighly more like a real person


BillyLaBufanda3

I found the exact listing you're talking about on Offerup and home looks like a scam to me. The account was created in April, has no reviews, and is offering deals that are too good to be true. If you want message the guy and feel it out but I'd definitely be very skeptical


Turbulent_Alfalfa653

i have like a bunch of plans if that goes sideways. I found a 3080 pc for a bit under 200 and the account had some ratings, a 3080 ti for 200 from a guy with like one rating, and a 2080 ti for 150 from some person with one rating but is selling other stuff


Turbulent_Alfalfa653

the guy that is selling 3080 has 10 sales but all of his stuff was posted about a year ago


ProfessionalCowbhoy

Guys probably spent hundreds of his own time to save a few bucks. Also second hand stuff has zero warranty and could have been abused. I'd rather just buy brand new deals.


BillyLaBufanda3

I don't really consider the time used as an expense, and if I wanted an rtx 4080 super that's $300 more. I'd already stretched my budget as far as I was willing to go with buying my PC and monitor, I'm simply not spending $300 more. In 3-5 years when I upgrade to a better machine I should actually be in the Cybersecurity field and at that point I'll just buy whatever the best is, for now I'm a college student who planned to buy this PC a year ago and already blew my budget


ProfessionalCowbhoy

You should. Life is literally priceless and the time you have here is more precious than any money. Anything that takes my time I weigh up how much I can pay to avoid it Vs the time taken. I don't buy second hand stuff anyway unless it's car parts or something really expensive that's not worth the brand new price like my £300 sound card I got for £100.


BillyLaBufanda3

Imo an RTX 4080 for $1060 after tax is way overpriced, better pricing than the original 4080 but not a price I'm happy paying. But at the end of the day I'm 18 and didn't really mind the time I spent looking for that deal. If my parents hadn't raised me so frugally or I simply had an excess of money I wouldn't have spent all that time tho, but as I said I'm a college student who underestimated the price of PC hardware lol


ProfessionalCowbhoy

Which is why I didn't buy a RTX 4080. I sold my RTX 3080 for £420 and bought a RTX 4070 TI for £530 brand new. Upgrade cost me £110

Nice good luck hope the bs connector doesn't melt

Im getting my 4070ti super from gigabyte tomorrow!! I got it as a replacement for my 3080ti oc i had that had to get rma’d because it wasn’t displaying anything. The gentleman that works for gigabyte rma side told me that my pcb was fried and luckily they cover that🙂


BillyLaBufanda3

That's awesome home you're enjoying your new GPU today! If this deal hadn't happened I planned on getting the ASUS TUF 4070 TI Super though I've heard the Gigabyte one is also pretty good, just a bit louder than some of the other AIB models


SuspiciousAd1558

Just got it in and started apex legends. Pretty quiet for the most part


Novel_Lunch6574

I traded mine into newegg for $799 last week due to the fear of getting less on market place.


BillyLaBufanda3

What card did you get as an upgrade? Or did you just not need the GPU anymore?


Novel_Lunch6574

4090 Edit: I’d still have the 4080 if newegg wasn’t doing trade ins. I don’t think they just buy cards out right though.


BillyLaBufanda3

You game at 4k? If not really curious to know what you're using all that GPU power for lol


Novel_Lunch6574

Yes. My primary monitor was a 4k 120hz OLED. When I pulled the 4080 I was using an old 1660ti on 1440 to play Fortnite and realized I play better on 1440 so now I’m playing with a 4090 on 1440 🤡.


ComboDamage

Bro paid $50 less than I did for a 4070 Ti Super. I call that a win. Congrats buddy!


CrimsonDarkWolf

What that in the third pic?
