6 days agoSo I have a reason to sell my 4080 to my friend at the discount friend price. They got a 4080 for $700 and I got a 5080 for ~$700.
So I have a reason to sell my 4080 to my friend at the discount friend price. They got a 4080 for $700 and I got a 5080 for ~$700.
Newegg has gotten some 5080 stock around 4:30 PST the past few days. They’re only in stock for a few minutes so mash F5 and buy whatever is in stock and figure out the rest after checkout. Most are bundled with a PSU, but the ones I’ve seen aren’t crap PSUs they’re trying to get rid of like the 40 launch. https://www.nowinstock.net/computers/videocards/nvidia/rtx5080/full_history/
I manage to get a 5080 at launch with a bundled PSU, then sold the PSU and my old 4080.
I undervolted my 5800X3D and 9800X3D and that helped with temps a lot.
I never undervolted my GPU, I generally go the other way with it. My 4080 lost the silicon lottery, couldn’t get any more out of it. Not sure if I won it with my 5080 because a lot of people seem to be having large gains, but I got my boost clock to to a little over 3 GHz and a +1GHz to the memory.
