Theoretically, the Newegg Shuffle looks like the best bet, but I can speak from experience and say that out of hundreds of attempts, I have never been selected for an RTX 3080 shuffle - I've only 'won' the opportunity to buy an expensive bundle four times, and twice it was for a CPU bundle. Newegg Shuffle Price: $1,070 to $1,400, more with bundled items.Typical Amazon RTX 3080 Price: $1,670 or more.Typical Newegg RTX 3080 Price: $1,580 or more.Average RTX 3080 eBay Price: $1,739 for sold listings.Here's what we've found looking at current prices. Beyond eBay, there are third parties selling GPUs on Amazon and Newegg, and there's also the Newegg Shuffle. There are tons of scams going on right now, so act accordingly. The easiest place to find an RTX 3080 is eBay, though as usual you'll want to exercise caution - avoid buying from new accounts, and if the price looks too good to be true (basically, anything under $1,000), it probably is.

Most vendors charging 'reasonable' prices are sold out and have been since the cards launched last year.

We have a few places we can look for a standalone GeForce RTX 3080. How Much Does a Standalone GeForce RTX 3080 Cost? If you can find a GeForce RTX 3080 or GeForce RTX 3080 Ti for several hundred dollars less than the typical eBay price, we'd consider that a 'deal' - even if it still ends up being rather expensive. Not surprisingly, retail prices at places like Amazon and Newegg tend to follow the eBay trends - perhaps minus eBay's 14% pound of flesh, perhaps not. That's not a perfect look at the market, but it does give a reasonable indication of what some people are willing to pay. Our GPU price index tracks recently sold GPUs on eBay.

We'll look at all three options here.īefore we get into how to find RTX 3080 deals, let's set the stage. Do you want the original GeForce RTX 3080 10GB desktop card, which remains our favorite (theoretical) pick for the best overall graphics card? Or do you want the more recent GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 12GB, which boasts similar performance to the GeForce RTX 3090 but with half the VRAM? Finally, there are laptops sporting the mobile GeForce RTX 3080, which is really more like the desktop RTX 3070, but it's branded as a 3080 - probably because getting a GA102 GPU into a laptop would be difficult at best, considering the desktop cards draw 320W or more power. There are actually several graphics cards that can be lumped together under the GeForce RTX 3080 deal banner. Alienware: RTX 3080 Ti Desktops from $2699.Best Buy: Save $600 on RTX 3080 Ti Desktop.Newegg: Up to 15% off RTX 3080 Desktops.Those contain similar information and analysis for Nvidia's slightly less expensive GPUs. You might also be interested in our GeForce RTX 3070 deals and GeForce RTX 3060 deals.

Depending on your definition of a deal, however, you can still find savings. Outside of periodic small restocks at brick and mortar retailers such as Best Buy or Micro Center, you won’t be able to acquire any of the best graphics cards without paying a big markup. The conjunction of the pandemic, increased demand from a variety of sectors, supply chain difficulties, shortages of several key components, and then cryptocurrency mining fever all lined up in such a way as to destroy all hope of finding an RTX 3080 for Nvidia's $699 MSRP. Finding a true GeForce RTX 3080 deal right now - meaning, finding the GPU at a great price - would be rather like finding Bigfoot: Blurry photos and bad costumes aside, neither one exists.
