Asus 3080 Tuf just arrived to Lebanon.

Check GCS , Expert Zone , and Mojitech.
Logitech has Asus and Gigabyte but they need to be booked because only a few are available
ear21 wroteAny idea where one can find a 5600x CPU or any of the 5000 Ryzen series in Lebanon? Or, if they will be available at all before the end of the year?

I'm also looking for the 3080 RTX but man the inconsistent prices I'm seeing are ridiculous. Between 750 to 1050$!!

Any suggestions from this community are appreciated!
Zen 3 CPUs will be available in the country very soon, hopefully before the end of the year.

hehehe, Logitech...



The MSRP prices Nvidia put is not the same price as being sold at retailers abroad. Almost no cards are being sold at MSRP pricing, most of them are very close to the prices they are being sold in Lebanon.


This year was an amazing year for advancements in hardware, however, it was a very very tough year for manufacturers to keep supplying to the demands of the market. It has been a shortage after a shortage, which is causing all these questions and consistencies within the market. It's not just in Lebanon, it's something global.
Oupss Mojitech
As for the Ryzen series 5000 it's not yet available in Europe
I am tempted by the 3700x with an x570 motherboard to accompagne my rtx 3070.
Price is sweet at amazon and no customs to pay on it

Who said there is no customs to pay ?
GSC has the best offer on the Asus 3080 Tuf.

985 USD + 11%Vat on 1520 bases.
If you have anyone in Syria you can get Asus 3080 TUF OC between 1000-1025 from dpsy.com. They are the official agent for ASUS there.

This price was from one month and I didn't check it later.

why not just get the normal version and OC kt yourself? it's the same card that just has a different bios.

the TUF OC version isn't that much higher clocked than the non OC version anyway.

You will be getting it for cheaper locally.

Not all cards are created equal. I am pretty sure AIBs tend to bin their silicons so you have more headroom for OC and some cards use cheap components like Zotac ( google SP-caps vs Mlcc Ampere) which limits your capabilities to OC.

You are absolutely right,

What I mean is if you buy an ASUS TUF OC vs ASUS TUF non-OC (Which shares the exact same part number except for the OC version having a 1 at the end) tend to share the exact same hardware, and the only difference is the BIOS.

However some cards like the STRIX series do indeed have beefier hardware and VRM systems and they tend to have binned chips as well, even on the non-OC versions.


To put it into simple words and conclude what I am saying,

Asus TUF non OC and OC share the same hardware

Asus STRIX non OC and OC also share the same hardware, however that hardware is beefier by default and probably has binned chips to be able to sell them at such high OC stock.

But both series of cards just have a different BIOS to turn them from non-OC to OC cards, as in a non-OC STRIX card still has the beefy VRM and the binned chip.
