Let's say hypothetically that rdna 2.0 is not competitive at all. And it does not beat a a 3070. That leaves the door wide open for NVIDIA to charge what they want. Will you still pay for it even though they will charges more for ampere than with turing?

For example lets say you have to now pay 800+ for a 3070. Blamed AMD for not being competitive and call it a day.

No.

I wouldn't pay £400 for a 2070 so I'm not likely to pay double for a 3070.

justwondering · 31 Jul 2020 at 06:08

But will it be 88.15% more expensive?

scubes · 31 Jul 2020 at 06:41

I can see nvidia 800 for the 3070 900 for the 3080 and 1500 for the 3080ti.

Has Nvidia become that tight lipped concerning leaks these days? same with AMD really, didn`t we always get some real leaks at least a few months before a release? seems a bit curious to me.

If that was the case I would probably just get a ps5 and call it a day.

Bought ghost of Tsushima 45 pounds finished it was ok not my cup of tea sold it for 40 bought last of us 2 50 quid loved it completed it twice sold it for 36 quid you can't do that with PC games all im saying is PC gaming is a rip off Death stranding a year after the PS4 and coming out soon horizon Zero Dawn a 3 year old game lol.

You are right you couldn't do that on the PC because you wouldn't be ripped off buying a typical new game at £50 in the first place. The only time I ever paid that much was when it included a season pass that gives all expansions and DLC over the following year for free. Plus there is a trade in variation on the PC. Many of us buy 2nd hand games to put on Steam for a fraction of the price of a new game.

Plus the PC has two major advantages. We can share our entire game library for free with our friends and family. Take a good game, I could buy it most likely cheaper then the console rip off £50 price. Then share it for free with my brother and friends who would then share it for free with there family. At the same time they will share there game library for free with me. Which is massively superior to handing a disk between us as we all live miles apart. For £30 or less each we can have 5 "last of us 2" style games between us and we don't lose access to the game like you do.

What if the game was rubbish could you still sell it on for the same price? Trade in price is based on how popular the game is. If it turns out to be rubbish you very rarely buy at £50 and trade in at £45. Yet on the PC you can get a full 100% refund with a simple click then go out and by a new game. Effectively the PC lets you play the game for a couple of hours buying deciding if its worth paying for.

These games are coming to pc because the developers want to make more money. Not because it’s taken 3 years to implement to pc. They are supposedly ps4 exclusives after all.

Being able to sell games is a choice and hardly reasoning for saying it’s a ripoff.

hilarious. Goodbye customer base if so. If NVidia or any spies are reading this then that would be enough to make a lot of your customers boycott you forever

Too Tall · 31 Jul 2020 at 11:08

I think the 3080 Ti is going to be around £1100

Hoping for less, and also that big navi is close performance wise.

No chance they'll push that high, not with AMD offering reasonable competition this time round. Pricing will be pretty much like-for-like with 2000 series, so £1000-1200 for the top-end card.

benjii · 31 Jul 2020 at 11:18

It could well be £1500 with the Asus tax though.

I honestly would.

3070 = $399
3070Ti = $499

That makes a whole lot more sense. That said I can see them being around $50 more.

A 3070ti shouldn't exist unless Nvidia tries to short change us on the 3070.

I only said it because every leak I seen suggests we will get one.

Thing is I would rather see it than get a 3070S later on.

3070 = ~~$399~~ $549

I think you were being a bit optimistic with your numbers so I've fixed those for you

Here's my projection for the rest of the stack.

3060 = $349
3060ti = $449
3080 = $799
3080ti = $1099
3090 = $1499

I hope I'm wrong but can see it happening.

Illuminist · 31 Jul 2020 at 12:43

Add 100 dollar to each of those and id believe it more

What does Ti even stand for? All these years and I don't know.

What's the point in having a Ti version? Why not just make the numbering incremental. Eg if you have 8 steps in the range just call them 3010,20,30,40,50,60,70,80.

I mean, why start at 60? Why stop at 80? Why have a Titan above that which departs from the numbering system?

I just don't get it.

Ti = Titanium.
