I'd buy a new 3080 10g/12g below msrp,for sure. even in september. then just have more time to let rtx40 sku's roll out. I think I'd be satisfied even if undervolted it to 250w as my 3060ti is doing just fine at 200w with dlss.

This doesn't make any sense- if they had the chips= they were planning on selling them... what?- would they just throw them away?

You guys are nuts if you think the prices for the new 40 series isn't going up 25-30%. Quit citing prices from 4 yrs ago.
4070 = $699
4080 = $999
4090 = $1499 maybe even $1699.
Add about $200 to the ti versions when they come out.
Except the 4090 ti will be about $1999
IF... they announce the new cards in October.. They will be very limited in supply until the 30 series dries up. I just bought a 3090 ti.. I'm good, don't care about the 40 series.. And I'm coming from a 1070.

^ That's not how markets work.
One needs to remember that all these are just ... toys. (when not used for cryptomining, which is on its death bed, even if not very apparent to a lot of people)
I think most people will prioritize putting food on the table and paying for their increasingly expensive electricity than buying yet another overpriced toy.
Giant corporations like nVidia and AMD are attempting to sell tens of millions of these things every year, or more.
Just 10000 rich buyers that grab a "Titan" card for $1000 or more in the first few days are not enough, if most of everyone else can't afford them.
Right now the purchasing power of the average Joe and Jane are reducing more and more, as we are clearly in a global recession (despite what the fake news media says). Another overpriced toy is definitely NOT a priority.

Here's a little story - A shop where I live (in an European country of 20 million people) had a 3060 Ti on sale for significantly lower than the market average (one single piece), actually lower than MSRP, with a little twist - It was "unsealed" (probably a return from a customer).
Guess how much it just sat there as the lowest priced 3060 Ti on the entire market.
10 days.
Ten freekin' days until someone eventually decided to get it.
2nd one:
All the stores have stocks of GPUs of all kinds and they barely sell at all. I went to a local electronics retailer which sells computer parts as well last Thursday and took a good look at the shelf full of 3080s, 3070s, 6700XT and the like.
Today I went there again and took a good look at the shelf again. It's gathering more dust. Those cards are sitting there for days and nobody buys them.
You might wonder... why aren't they lowering prices?
Simple, because the shop bought those cards at more than they are priced now, and they are ALREADY losing. They don't want to lose even more, or hope that somehow the market will bounce back and those magical miners are going to empty the shelves again.
The reality will kick in soon enough that they are just going to be forced to slash those prices in half if they want to recover anything at all from those cards.
