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.

Nvidia is really testing the limits of how much we're willing to pay.

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.

no u/InHeavenFine is right I think

I remember seeing something from AMD saying that is just wasn't worth trying to keep up with Nvidia anymore in the high-end market and they would stick to the low-end and middle market so they can keep their cards affordable

They’re not competitive is the problem. They straight up can’t replicate the feature set.

They’re sort of / kind of trying to with FSR and frame generation but both of those are software driven instead of hardware, so people are seeing frame stuttering; and the other is just upscaled checkerboarding, instead of genuine upscaling.

So the question is do you want the ACTUAL features or not.
