Yeah but the 4080 isn't selling because the customer at that market tier doesn't give a shit about the 4080. Nobody who can afford a 4080 is going to buy one unless they're desperate to get a GPU ASAP. They're going to spend the extra change to get a 4090.

Once you cross $1000-1200 the customer changes and a 30% slower card at $1400 vs $1600 for the real high end part is a dead product.

The only thing that would make me consider a 4080 is if my card died and 4090s were being scalped + out of stock. Or if Nvidia added $1000 to the 4090 price.

That was true at launch. Now, there are no more msrp 4090s in the market, but there are 4080s. 4080 FE is 1400€ incl tax, 4090s are available from 2100€...
