Want an Nvidia RTX 3080? They’re in stock at MSRP right now

Add as a preferred source on Google

EVGA has restocked several of its Nvidia RTX 30-series graphics cards for near list price, and you can buy them immediately. Following consistently inflated GPU prices, it seems the best graphics cards are finally back in stock — and at a price that gamers may be able to afford.

For nearly two years, EVGA has restricted its graphics cards to a queue system, forcing hopeful buyers to wait until their name comes up before purchasing a graphics card. The models in stock now are available for anyone to buy right away, no waiting required.

These are some of the lowest GPU prices we’ve seen in months. The prices of graphics cards have been tumbling over the past few months, as cryptocurrency miners sell off old units and the supply chain begins to stabilize. EVGA is one of the first vendors to return to direct sales, and it’s offering solid discounts.

The RTX 3050, for example, is only $50 above its list price. The 12GB RTX 3080 — which we said was a bad deal in our review — is selling for below its list price. If you’ve been eagerly waiting to pick up a new graphics card, now is the time. EVGA isn’t alone here, either. Last month, Asus announced it would cut the prices of Nvidia graphics cards as of April 1.

The GPU shortage has pushed the prices of graphics cards extremely high, with some cards selling for thousands of dollars over the course of 2021. Prices have been dropping over the past several months, but we’ve only seen cards near list price over the past few weeks. Hopefully, by the time summer rolls around, graphics cards will regularly sell near list price.

EVGA’s offerings are enticing, but it’s important to note the lack of lower-end options in Nvidia’s RTX 30-series lineup. Those looking for a flagship card are spoiled with options, though. EVGA has several models of the RTX 3080 Ti, for example, from the liquid-cooled RTX 3080 Ti XC3 Ultra Hydro Copper to the RGB-ridden RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra.

We’ve confirmed that the cards listed above are in stock at the time of publication, though we suspect that will change. Although GPUs aren’t as hard to get as they once were, there’s a good chance some of the cards above will sell out.

Adobe’s new AI assistant could save you hours in Photoshop and Premiere

Adobe

Adobe is making one of its biggest bets yet on AI-powered creativity. The company has announced a major expansion of its creative agent across Firefly and Creative Cloud, introducing AI assistants capable of handling complex, multi-step workflows across applications, including Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, InDesign, and Frame.io.

The move positions Adobe's AI agent as a central layer connecting every stage of the creative process, from brainstorming and content generation to editing and final production. Rather than simply generating images or text, Adobe's vision is to create an assistant that can understand a creator's goal and execute a series of actions across multiple tools.

Intel’s efforts to rebuild its chipmaking business may have landed its biggest customer yet. U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that Apple has agreed to work with Intel to design and manufacture chips in the United States, a deal that could significantly strengthen Intel’s foundry ambitions.

The announcement does not come out of the blue. Earlier reports indicated that Apple and Intel had been discussing a manufacturing partnership for more than a year and had already begun working together on select chip production projects.

A harmless-looking ChatGPT prompt opened the door to gruesome AI images
The findings show how image safety systems can fail without explicit graphic instructions.
ChatGPT

A harmless-looking ChatGPT prompt pushed the latest public version of ChatGPT into generating sexualized and violent images, AI security researchers told the BBC. The finding puts new pressure on OpenAI’s image safety systems, since the request wasn’t described as plainly graphic.

Mindgard, a British AI security startup, said it reached the results by altering a widely shared instruction that had been used for comedy. OpenAI added safeguards after the BBC contacted it, but the researchers said small wording changes still produced concerning images.
