Yeah I would have bought a 1070 by now if it was priced the same as the 970. The price jumps across the whole range are pure greed on nV's part.
(and they were released at those prices before Brexit, in case anyone is thinking that
)Yeah Vega is only for people who...
want the best value for money
want the top-end AMD card regardless of whether the cost of replacing their PSU outweighs the saving from not buying nV
So yeah... VEGA is for people who are allergic to green, I think.
lolYeah Vega is only for people who...
want the best at any price

Agree pure greed...
but it maybe that Nvidia where bitter about peeps finding out about the things they where trying to hide with the 970 and the ruckus it caused them and for that they thought right if you want what is exactly written on the tin its going to cost you EXTRA...

Sadly people just keep on buying
I was fortunate and got a 1070 at slightly closer to sane prices - if it hadn't been for one of Gibbo's special deals I probably wouldn't have bought one.Annoyingly I've got a real itch to upgrade my GPU at the moment for some reason even though the 1070 handles pretty much everything fine - partly because most of my previous GPUs have been more interesting versions like the 780GHz and this is just a plain Palit dual fan :s
Eh, I've had a 750 W PSU for 8 years and never used anywhere near its potential so I won't need to upgrade, thankfully. Even a new PSU would be far cheaper than the G-Sync tax. I am concerned about the heat output of Vega though.Yeah Vega is only for people who...

Mass production by late August!!!!
Why is RTG trying to be suicidal? stretching a release like that.. preposterous that.
Just launch it with half-baked drivers for gods sake

I bet they release like a 1060 variant first as well and make people wait another month for the higher end parts :s
I was really meaning the GPU portion and there are still rumours circulating that there'll be a 16GB version of the RX......maybe.
It'll be interesting to see how the newly released FE with an AIO performs in comparison to the air cooled version. It might give some pointers towards the RX version.
I was definitely NOT trying to start a flamewar by asking if the Vega XTX was a re-badged Fury X
Are there? At the AMA Raja simply said they'd look into it. Although looking at the price of the FE water cooled version :/
That's the custom cards.
Don't know if they've changed the article but they're saying that mass production "could be as soon as early September". Could be talking mid September for actual purchasing if that's the case.
Yeah, just rumours obviously. That's why I said maybe
It might depend on the success of the 8GB version.

If HBCC is actually working correctly by then, along with tiled rasterization and the rest, 8GB should hopefully be plenty.
We'll hopefully know it all come Siggraph.
Why would you want to overclock a workstation card? Especially if it can only do an extra 100mhz on the core. Would you not want rock solid stability for that sort of stuff? Seems like a strange product to release.
