So should I keep this or not?
While waiting for my EVGA 3080, I'm clicking on NewEgg links and *unexpectedly* snagged a combo gigabyte 3070 card + gigabyte 750 PSU for a total $932.00 (including Sales tax).
My current 850 PSU is unopened, but past the return date from BestBuy.
So, how decent of a card is this? Should I cancel it?
It's not super terrible. The MSRP + Shipping/Tax of that bundle is probably around 800. However I don't think you will have trouble selling it used for higher than MSRP months later so you can recoup some of that back whenever you get the card you want.

Thanks for the quick feedback. My 12yrOld son agrees with you except he thinks I should put it and the PSU in his PC (GTX-1660Ti) instead of resell later....

I guess I'm waiting for the 40 series, I up-grade my gaming rig between, 5 and 10 years, and only go through EVGA on the GPU, and Asus with the Mobo. Just personal, preference. I hope nividias next moves frees up the graphics cards.
Or maybe the 30 Super series. I hope that Nivida does the same thing to all the SKUS that they are doing to the 3060 and it works.
Lol Ya it might work for all of a day. Then it will interfere with games and they will have to release a fix for that which will just make it like they didnt try to prevent it for use in miners. Or it will work for a day before some miner out there figures out how to get around it and then throws that out on the web.  Nvidia has not done one thing right with the 30 series GPU's they will mess this up as well somehow.

Indeed, this façade NVidia is putting on of "oh we want to prevent cards from being used by Miners" is utter marketing BS. When it comes to what matters to them as a business, profit is profit, they do not care where it comes from. The 3060 probably won't be that great at mining regardless. Even if they release Ti/Super variants of the 3080 & 3070 with some "anti mining" fix, they'll end up having to patch it because it'll hurt performance in certain titles - thusly absolving them of "being the bad guy" to untrained eyes, when in reality, they really don't care about WHO buys the cards, as long as they sell.

exactly the new 3060 coming out wont be up to mining like the 3060 Ti is but it will perform at least at what the old amd 580's were doing. And that in itself will make it desirable for miners. And totally agree with with Dabadger84 on the rest Marketing is key and they are trying to as always misdirect from their own bad decisions and judgement by saying they are putting anti mining safeties in place. Blah Blah its all BS on their part as Dabadger84 said as long as they get their money they don't care where it comes from.

Big 3898 drop coming, I can feel it. That SKU only dropped one day this month. The law of averages has got to kick in at some point. They are probably stuck in the container ship logjam at the port. Apparently, the crane operators are infecting each other because they share a common workspace that isn't being properly cleaned in between shifts. There's your bottleneck, in addition to the other bottlenecks that have been discussed.

This week and next week might be the last "big" drops we get for a while, and next month once the Lunar New Year lull kicks in in terms of the shut downs meaning no cards arriving to port (since they take about a month to get from where they're made to where they can be sent out to us) - I would expect that effect in late March/Early April, at which point we may see no drops at all for a month straight, or only very small ones.
Hopefully once things kick back in NVidia will actually get full capacity going. I just hope those idiots don't ever make the mistake again of only ramping production up a month before launch... having insufficient supply for a launch of this magnitude is almost excusable once... but lest we forget, this happened to a lesser extent with the 20-series cards too (less scalping then so the effects only lasted weeks), and it got far worse with the 30-series, because demand was higher never minding scalping increasing, and supply was lower & effected by both COVID & supply issues for the Dies & RAM chiplets, which got worse not better in the last 6 months for the most part.
Let us hope AMD pushes forward with RT performance and closes the gap in that aspect, so that NVidia actually have something to worry about in the overall market by the time the 40-series cards come out... otherwise, do they really have any motivation to actually get "better" at dealing with launches, if there's no competition? They know people want their cards & will wait to get them, that's a real part of this problem - and again we circle back to "as long as NVidia makes their money they do not care where it comes from".
The companies that are suffering from this the most are companies like eVGA that only make NVidia products, are having to survive on less supply, while still trying to be profitable, which is why SKUs that would normally be "fine" despite being less profitable, have likely been thrown to the way-side, because they are trying to keep profits high enough to "survive" until supply stabilizes. Those getting mad at eVGA for not making certain SKUs need to understand that aspect, they're doing what they need to do to survive, NVidia has been making real strides to try & negate the AIB market in the past few generations, making their Founders Edition cards "better" while selling them at MSRP - that is a direct shot & competition directed at companies like eVGA.
Then you add to that the news that NVidia is selling GPUs directly to mining companies, thus increasing their direct profits, while further negatively impacting supply to AIBs (and gamers)...
Conclusion, let us hope AMD closes the gap further so NVidia has some real competition, not just for the sake of it might kick NVidia in the pants & make them handle launches better, but also so that we actually HAVE another option if NVidia boggles the next launch again, to go with AMD instead.
/end sort of rant but more just recycling information that I think some might not be thinking about

"Nvidia has not done one thing right with the 30 series GPU's they will mess this up as well somehow." ????? I disagree. Nvidia did make the 30 series cards good enough that Nvidia and its partners can't come close to keeping up with the demand for the cards. That's a pretty BIG thing Nvidia did right. You might be happier if Nvidia and its retailer customers were drowning in unsold cards. Nvidia's shareholders and customers would not.

I agree they did this one thing right (releasing a really good product), but to be fair the fact that they cannot keep up with the demand has at this point nothing to do with how good these cards are. If that was the case my 1080Ti would not be going locally almost at it's initial MSRP. It is all mining induced at this point. The demand for GPU hashing power on ethereum and other coins skyrocketed along with their prices. Ethereum had a total hashing power added between some day in December and some day in February of the equivalent of 1.100.000 RTX 3080's. Do not recall exact dates but it was a time span of 47 days. Some of this is gamers mining with their game rig when its out of use, but let's face it - a big chunk of this number is going to be racks of cards in a mining operation. This demand is not dying as long as the cards are as profitable as they are right now. On the other hand if this crashes spectacularly I am hoping for good deals on used cards.

Good deals on used cards that have had their VRAM running at over 100C in a lot of cases for months on end - we're going to have another situation like we did with R9 290/290Xs when mining crashed during their being relatively new, hundreds & hundreds of cards flooding the EBay & used markets, and a fair bit of them being "damaged" goods, making the used market a minefield of "buyer beware" yuckyness.

This is a fair point.
Personally I would still risk it with 3070 if it crashes soon (and deal is good I suppose). 3080 not so much, VRAMs cooling on those is a disaster. Those will be timebombs.

So I now have confirmation that my 5800x chip is now in FedEx hands and is on the way, arriving this Friday
As a result of lack of Asus Hero wifi/dark hero boards at proper prices I bought a formula board for 600 :/
Atleast I will be getting a real upgrade from my intel 8600k in preparation for that sweet sweet 3080 coming sometime or another :P

Darks are ridiculously scalped. I cancelled my 5950x order because I wouldn't buy a dark from scalpers. Thought about an Asus formula, but for the 5950, only the dark makes sense. For the 5800x, you should do well with that build.

I just finished a build with the dark hero and the 5800x this past weekend for a friend. It went really nice. Like the board, the only issue I have is that I don't care for the asus mobo software and monitoring. I wish it had more info in a presentable manner. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I built mines and now that dark hero and I still like my son's MSI interface better. Love the board and performance though which is why I would buy the formula for a open loop system upgrade or the dark hero for my next build or upgrade. The only thing I would recommend with the dark hero is that you purchase cable extenders for the CPU. The space in the upper left corner gets tight depending on your psu cables, fan setup, and case. I have the corsair power supply and in the Lian Li Lancool II Mesh and the cables that came with the power supply were about 6 inches too short for my liking. It fit, but it didn't have the slack I would have wanted. In the dark hero, the combination of the heat sinks and the larger IO shield area made it even worse as they are much larger. I had ordered cable extensions prior the build but they got stuck in Texas during the freeze. They arrived the day of the build after I had left my house so I had to make a run back to pick them up. Once I had those, there was great flexibility in the cable and now length to route the cable how I would want to.

How do you think we all feel. I am one of those, signed up 48 hours too late, still waiting on a 3080 notice. As of today 0/11 in Newegg shuffles, this new mining world is so depressing.
Ah  , you see I set up notify for only one 3080 sku and you on the other hand 3 of them. But still we are in the same queue.....err boat. You know that amazing feeling when every one in the class fails and that one guy who fails by a single mark...... Waiting in this queue is somewhat deviously entertaining.

Conclusion, let us hope AMD closes the gap further so NVidia has some real competition, not just for the sake of it might kick NVidia in the pants & make them handle launches better, but also so that we actually HAVE another option if NVidia boggles the next launch again, to go with AMD instead.
 Agreed , I am sick of the games companies play with us. Not just competition but also if there is steady supply of competitors product then the companies will be forced to respond or risk losing market.

Uh, did crypto crash? I am aware it is not the only factor of why the stock is in this stat state but, it looks interesting right now.

This is a fair point.
Personally I would still risk it with 3070 if it crashes soon (and deal is good I suppose). 3080 not so much, VRAMs cooling on those is a disaster. Those will be timebombs.
Yeah the 3070 is safer, regular GDDR6 doesn't run as hot. 3080s & 3090s that are coming off mining rigs are definitely going to be timebombs if crypto crashes & people sell off their parts. sealancer

Yep, that's exactly what we need - Not that AMD is going to close the market overnight, because their drivers are still a dumpsterfire at times, but them gaining 5+% on NVidia in one quarter would slap them around enough to maybe knock some sense in to them. I'm also hoping Intel's second gen GPUs will be decent... their first gen that's for regular desktop users will most likely be garbage except in the budget sector, but I hope they don't abandon it if their initial foray doesn't go well. Having a 3rd player in that market would be quite nice, but I'd expect Intel won't be able to actually compete with AMD & NVidia at the high end for at least another 3-5 years probably. But what we need to happen is sort of what's happening in the CPU market now, AMD actually challenging Intel & having CPUs that are great at gaming again, market share will flow their way over the course of this year, then hopefully Intel will finally innovate again instead of sticking to 14nm++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ lol
