The new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER It has already been launched on the market, and as usual, although NVIDIA announces it with an official sale price, assemblers do what they want with their custom models and usually sell them much more expensive. However, in this case two manufacturers are selling their RTX 4080 SUPER at the price indicated by NVIDIA, and if you want to buy it with these you will not have to pay not a single euro more.
It’s pretty common: the original manufacturer (NVIDIA or AMD) announces a new graphics card at a certain price, but then the assemblers install their custom heatsinks, give it a slight factory overclock, and sell them at a price which often amounts to $400,000. several hundred dollars. Fortunately, there are two manufacturers who have decided to break the rule and sell their graphics cards exactly at the price announced by the manufacturer.
The RTX 4080 SUPER from PNY and Zotac, at the right price
When NVIDIA announced the RTX 4080 SUPER, it did so at the official retail price of $999, which later with the Euro exchange rate and the taxes that the government imposes on each of the things we want buy, was opted for an official selling price of 1,119 dollars. Today we can see models in this chart that reach almost 1,600 dollars for this “premium” that consists of installing its own heat sink and increasing the frequency by 15 MHz, which honestly seems absurd to us and even more when the Founders Edition heatsink is already fantastic.
In any case, these Founders Edition models are practically collector’s items and are usually sold out as soon as they go on sale, so even if you like them, if you haven’t been quick you will have to “settle” for a model personalized. assemblers, which does not mean that they are bad either, far from it.
In this case we have two assemblers who have decided to put their new graphics on sale without adding extra money, that is, they sell them at the price of $ 1,119 announced by NVIDIA (well, in In this case, they sell them both for $1,119.90 but don’t reach the euro markup, I think you can forgive that).
As we mentioned earlier, the first of these is PNY, which sells its RTX 4080 SUPER VERTO OC triple fan at $1,119.90; As the name suggests, this model features a triple-fan heatsink and benefits from a slight factory overclock, including 15 MHz more in its Boost speed (it goes from 2,550 to 2,565 MHz).
The other manufacturer that sells its RTX 4080 SUPER at the price is Zotac with its model Trinity black edition, with a three-fan heatsink, plenty of RGB even on the backplate and in this case it doesn’t even have a factory overclock. Of course, as in the previous case, they sell it at its fair price plus 90 cents.
In both cases, if you place the order today it will arrive on Monday and also with free shipping, so we consider this a very good opportunity to get one of these new graphics without having to pay an absurd extra price.
