Am I the only one who thinks the 3090 Ti kingpin will be closer to $2500 than $3000? It's not like there is a big market for a $3K msrp gpu. Let alone 8-9 months before the GPU market has cards that ship w 3x the performance of the current flagships

I'm thinking the same thing.  Closer to $3K seems absurd.  Rumor was they were drop the 3090 KP price and Ti would be pushed above the previous price for the base 3090.

If this is correct, the 3090ti prices are stupid expensive.

I guess one way to fix supply problems is to charge so much for the card at retail that nobody even wants it

LOL.. yup - I can see it now; "..and I even fixed the supply chain issue!"

lol.  Maybe I'll go buy a Tesla, rip the GPU out and sell the tesla for scrap.

That's what they do with Alienware PCs these days

don't read into this.
 
first of all, zotac and MSI are rip of artists. MSI is the company that tried to scalp their own cards on ebay at 2x the price. and even when they aren't flipping their own cards on ebay, their cards are all disgustingly expensive even through retail channels. MSI 10GB RTX 3080 gaming is $1200 and suprim is $1300 in the US, and that's before sales tax. MSI cards cost hundreds more than anyone aside from zotac, which is somehow worse than MSI. 
 
and second, these prices are from european countries with stupid high import and sales taxes (VAT). german VAT is 19% and is already in the price of the card, where as in the US, canada and many other countries, they advertised price does not include the sales tax.

wondering if evga going sell with bundle like Z690 GodLike.... if so be at least 3200 with new case and power supply 

Well that's the E1.   A much bigger bundle.  And certainly won't be anywhere close to 3200.

Recently got mynotify and purchased a kingpin 3090 only to find a TI will be released soon.  Is there a way for me to return my current card and purchase a new one?  I'm no longer interested in this card it's still in the box

Yeah don't think it will be that high, not even $2500.  I'd say $2200-$2300 tops if not, they might just bump the new Kingpin to the current Kingpin's spot.

Depends which model you are talking about - the AiO or the Hydrocopper.. there's $230 difference between the two for the 3090KP, and I don't see the 3090TiKP being cheaper.
 
The difference in price from 3090FTW3HC to 3090KPHC is $380, so we could see a similar hike to go to the 3090TiKPHC (damn that's a bit of a mouthful).. which would land around $2,750.
 
Then again, the price difference for the hybrid going from FTW3 to KP is 'only' $200, so maybe $2,350 for the 3090TiKP-Hybrid and $2,550 for the 3090TiKPHC?
 
Also note that NVidia will be setting the base price, and they might just push the MSRP up quite a bit because they know people will still buy it based on the huge demand out there for the last almost 18 months (and the ridiculous prices some people have paid to scalpers).. and that craziness hasn't abated much since the 3000 series launched.
 
Also.. inflation pushing up costs every step of the way may be a factor. Sigh.
