Newegg has reduced the price of the MSI Ventus GeForce RTX 3080 12GB to $810, down from a US MSRP of $1290. That’s a great price, especially for the rarer (and more powerful) 12GB version of the 3080, which boasts the same memory bandwidth as the RTX 3080 Ti and more CUDA and RT cores than the standard RTX 3080.
When this appeared on the website, we weren’t entirely sure if it was a pricing error or not, but as a couple of hours have passed and people over on Reddit are reporting that there cards have been packed up and are ready to ship, it seems that Newegg is deadly serious about dropping the price on a 12GB RTX 3080 card down to one of the lowest prices we’ve ever seen.
For those in the UK, prices are a little all over the place. A lot of the 3080 12GB models are currently still coming in over a grand and if you can withstand the US shipping times from Newegg, the 3080 12GB can be yours for a pretty low £867. There’s no rebate deals available, as that’s just an American thing.
