It will be interesting to see if retailers have stock on the shelves to buy this time around or just the same old pre order systems in place for more vaporware. i was intending to upgrade this year but i am calling it a day now . i will come back to it this time next year. The refresh should offer better quality products / performance / availability and pricing.

A 3060 Ti spotted in Bosnia?? Well that changes everything!

It costs as average Bosnian month salary but they have it! 😀

You may be into something there. We have 3070 around, and asking price as about our average salary too.

Didnt know you are from Bosnia. Cheers! 🙂

Since monday 16.11.2020 in local Serbian legal importer's warehouse (not tech smugglers from Hungary) I have access to I've spotted two GigaByte 3060Ti models available, few pcs of each on stock. Don't take my word for it but iirc dual fan version Eagle OC model was around 470€ + VAT 20%, a bit beefier three-fan Gaming OC Pro version was around 510€ + VAT 20%. Could grab any of these with 2% discount for paying in advance but, nah... It was weird for me to see any of these cards were not listed yet on GigaByte official site. GigaByte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8GB Eagle OC = GV-N306TEAGLE OC-8GD GigaByte GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8GB Gaming OC Pro = GV-N306TGAMINGOC PRO-8GD And tbh both od these card are overpriced, at least here in Serbia. Atm all of them are gone now from importer's warehouse, think last one was sold on wednesday...

3060 Ti for more than 500 euros would be utterly out of the question. I'd expect only Asus Strix OverPriced Edition to cost that much. If the price happens to be similar over here, then 3060 Ti definitely won't be my next card, nor any Nvidia card for that matter. Then it would only depend on if AMD 6700 (XT) can deliver and how they are priced.

Don't press that panic button yet. PC stuff related prices here in Serbia are out of this world in last, let say 15 years. CPU or GPU or whatever that costs $400 in the US, price for that one in EU (in "normal" EU countries): 400€ to 500€. Same thing in Serbia (drums in the background): 500€ to 600€! Reason: high import taxes, VAT 20% and our "lovely" goverment protecting monopoly prices of one major serbian importer company owned by the brother of our "beloved" president. 🙄

Nah... no need to worry mate, 'm fine... Damn, scratching a concrete around these steel bars with spoon I've stolen from the jai... cough cough ...canteen is way more harder then I though it would be 🙁 ;) edit Atm looking at the Asus TUF-RTX3080-O10G-GAMING on stock at warehouse of one local importer, only one available since friday, price: 808€ + VAT 20% -2% for paying in advance (I always do that) = 950€ This is just insane, no way Jose I'm gonna throw that much cash on that card. AND this is a price for me as a owner of a partner company so it's not a retail price!!! Retail price for "average Joe" here is way more higher: 1148€ WTF!?
