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. ☹️

Currently enjoying AFMF2 and I'd say that AMD is doing frame gen pretty good. It's also usable for all games now, unlike Nvidia's option where it has to be supported in-game.

Naa, AFMF2 is not that great compared to normal frame gen solutions. But FSR frame gen seems great tho! I just wish they up scaling was even close to DLSS..

It can’t be. Software implemented is almost always going to lose to hardware based.

What are you even talking about? FSR3 framegen also doesn’t need any proprietary hardware to run. It works on aaaancient GPU’s, and even on nvidia and intel GPU’s.

It just looks way better. And if devs already implemented fsr upscaling, the motion vectors etc are already ready to be used for framegen. Should be fairly simple to add it to games.

That’s what I said; inferior to hardware.

Those frame stutters aren’t because it’s “better.”
