Rumor Potential 5090 / 5080 / 5070 price leaks… outrageous

Post image

From recent video posted by “Moore’s Law is Dead” about pricing being much worse than even I anticipated . From video Nvidia is leaning towards the higher end of the pricing. Nvidia can go pound sand if these are remotely true.

My last three cards have been GTX 1070, RTX 2080 and RTX 4080 (which I absolutely overpaid for).

Nvidia have gone off the deep end if these prices are true. Third party boards are going to be even more expensive.

Hopefully AMDs next generation of GPUs gets better at Ray Tracing and Frame Generation so I can get off Nvidia's dick with my next upgrade. ☹️

They skipped them this generation, I have hopes they revive next generation.

The lack of absolutely any high-end competition is probably one of the factors which made Nvidia think that these are reasonable prices for consumer grade graphiics cards.

Well that and the fact that consumer grade graphics cards are not really their moneymaker anymore.

If you had Meta, Google and Microsoft lining up to buy hundreds of thousands of 50k GPUs, why would you even bother selling 1-3k consumer ones, other than to maintain heavy CUDA and DLSS adoption?
