Got this two month ago on Newegg at ~850. It's not a high-end configuration compared to other 5070tis, but works perfect in my MTX case. This might be the thinnest and shortest 3X 5070ti you could find, and personally I think it looks beautiful. With proper OC, it can reach nearly 5080 performance. However, there is an obvious howling when fully loaded. So I select to lower the power to 0.9V with slightly OC, and it keeps basical performance while quiter. I recommend this if you want to build a mid-high performance MTX/ITX compact layout.
After the crypto phase, and now LLM training, I've been stuck buying GPU entry level since I was 16 buying a GeForce 6800. And the dorks try to make you feel insecure and bully you into debt because you're getting 2 less frames per second than they are and aren't maxxing out chromatic aberration.
When I'm training LLM I run 4xA100 ($28000) through a cloud container. No matter how much income I have I can't justify $800 on 1 component to ultimately play games.
I've checked the recently sold 3080 10GB on eBay, most of them are sold for around $400, some closer to $300. With 15% eBay fees, that would be around $350 profit. Trading through Newegg for $320 is much less of a hassle than selling on eBay to get $30-50 more, at least to me. If anything, selling it on Facebook Marketplace would be better.
Those were my thoughts exactly. I think I'ma just hold on to my 3080 for a while longer though, cause the 5070 ti isn't really that much of an upgrade ☹️

Yah, what a boomer. I'm rocking a V3-3500 playing Unreal Tournament!

I'm in the same boat. The only substantial upgrade would be 5080, unfortunately it's way above MSRP. The problem is that I'm upgrading from 1440p 170Hz to 4k 240Hz, so my 3080 10GB will definitely struggle driving that monitor lol. I guess I have to rely heavily on DLSS and Lossless Scaling FG for now, or just take the plunge and get a 5070ti.

I said the same thing, then my wife said "think of it as a reward for all the grind you've put in the past to get here" so I went out and got an OLED monitor also 🤣
