One thing I did after the RTX 30-series announcement was a back-of-the-envelope comparison of performance per dollar and performance per watt, taking NVIDIA's numbers at face value. The 3070 and 3080 are surprisingly close on both metrics. You pay a substantial premium for the 3090, but it does have the best performance per watt.

It looks like most are thinking 3080 might be the sweetspot for value?

Definitely, especially from a memory bandwidth perspective: https://youtu.be/KpnIx1kLq9w
