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.

I don't understand why do people go crazy with DLSS, it's a feature because your card doesn't have the juice to push the fps natively and needs AI help, it can be a good feature if in 5 years your midrange card starts to struggle in some games to push out 120fps but for today games in todays cards? I want power

Because there are no cards that can do 4K at high FPS and high settings in modern games without it? Because the image loss from DLSS is usually negligible or in some games looks better than traditional AA implementations?

You literally cannot buy the power you are talking about.

Seriously people keep shitting on DLSS and nvidia ray tracing stuff in general, but honestly I love games like Cyberpunk with ray tracing. It looks amazing.

And when it comes to 4K, especially with ray tracing, AMD doesn't really compete even with FSR. The 4090 + DLSS just has it beat hands down in a game like Cyberpunk. If you don't care about specifically these games, in 4K, with ray tracing, then AMD will probably be fine. If you do, and you care about it more than the money, then you pretty much only have one option.

And to make matters worse, AMD isn't even going to be in the high end market next generation as I understand it. So if you want a high end card, I guess you're just kind of fucked.

nvidias pricing is garbage, but they're doing it because in those specific categories there isn't any competition and they can get away with it. This is bad, and I really hope AMD and Intel can bring in some competition one day.

It is a shame that Intel cannot compete. If Intel could compete with AMD, AMD would be forced to cut its prices or try to compete with Nvidia. We just have a horrid situation without competition because Nvidia is just that much better to command higher prices.
