Now that the RTX 4070 has launched, could these RTX 3080 deals be better value for money than Nvidia’s latest graphics card?
Costing $599, the RTX 4070 isn’t a cheap GPU by any means. However, recent years have seen prices soar for graphics cards, while the quality and performance didn’t increase at the same rate. The RTX 40-series may have only continued that trend, with the RTX 4090 and 4080 costing eye-watering amounts.
Now, with the consumer-friendly price tag, the 4070 is the most affordable option to achieve premium graphics. Or at least, that’s what you might assume. There’s actually quite a few other options available to you, through deals and discounts, that can help you beat up the highest frame-rates and FPS’ without any issues.
The latest RTX 3080 deal might be just the thing for you.
RTX 3080 deal following RTX 4070 launch nearly 40% off
Discounted by nearly 40%, the RTX 4080 is available for $629. This is only $30 more than the RTX 4070, which is a fair difference in price. The RTX 3080 might have slightly less VRAM than the latest Team Green GPU, though what it loses out on memory, it makes up in nearly 3000 more CUDA Cores. For a more in-depth comparison of this, you might want to head over to our RTX 4070 vs RTX 3080 page.
We’d highly recommend the deal for anyone looking to experience 4K or 1440p gaming, though the RTX 4070 also performs very similarly here.
