Hey Grim, where are you man? These guys are slaughtering RTX, defend defend!! :p

Papa Jensen won’t be happy with your performance of late, you don’t want to be on his bad side so close to new GPU release do you? :D

Can't slaughter something that you can't beat in a benchmark now can you
 
I really need some AMD leaked info to strengthen my resolve to hold out past the nvidia launch. I'm buying a GPU this year to replace my 980ti (just a question of whether it's new or 2nd hand) and I'm really sitting here with money burning a hole in my pocket.

RTX ON

Nope, it's about the shiny.
See how shiny those pipes are. You can shave your face off those pipes. Boom.... Now imagine this game now at 1440p 60fps on 3080ti.

Do you people even read what you're replying to? There's a difference between

"If *decently powered* raytracing hardware becomes widespread."

and

"RTX is so amazing I want to have nvidia's babies"

Jeez.

If AMD don't put out any info before Ampere availability to get people to reconsider I'll be very surprised.

Or maybe having a modicum of self-control? Why are you in such a rush to buy a GPU? You've had that 980Ti this long, what's another 4 months?

Besides, given the space invaders fiasco of Turing's launch, wouldn't you want to hold off and let any issues Nvidia have work themselves out? Would you also not want to wait until AMD get their cards out to see if Nvidia lower their prices? They certainly won't be pulling a Super refresh so soon, so if AMD truly are competitive then big ol Leather Jacker might have to drop a price or two.

Speaking of which, when was the last tome AMD forced Nvidia to lower prices?

Err wasn't it the 5700xt launch?

AMD Announced it, Nvidia dropped prices on the 2070 then AMD did a further drop on the 5700xt afterwards.

Or am I remembering that wrong?

They retired the 2070 at that point, and launched the "Super" version. Not sure whether there was a price drop. But yes, they did seem to force nvidia to take action there.

Go away, 4K, nobody missed you, nobody missed your deluded crying, nobody missed you fixating on all the wrong metrics to validate your baseless and wrong assumptions.

And no ban? I find it incredibly hard to believe that somebody who'd foam at the mouth posting turgid nonsense as often as you would choose to not post for many months.

He's back :rolleyes:

thought it was the other way :confused: AMD announced the prices at E3, watched the market laugh at them reaction and was forced to drop $50 before the actual launch.

Correct.

The new Radeon RX 5700 hasn’t even yet officially launched as we’re still awaiting Sunday the 7th of July, yet AMD in a rare event has now officially announced that is it adjusting the launch prices of the new Navi cards to lower price points.

Originally, the Radeon 5700 XT Anniversary edition, the XT, and the standard variant were priced at $499, $449, and $379. AMD has now lowered the price points to $449, $399 and $349.

I won't pay more than £599inc for a new card so that basically means I will end up with another AMD card and be happy. I know it will be at least 50% quicker than my 5700XT and that's fine. My 5700XT has been a superb card so far.

If you have £1,200 and the mental strength to spend it on a GPU then I would just pre-order the top tier Nvidia card, it will probably be 15%-20% quicker, both companies spy on each other and know exactly how fast each others parts are.

But it also triggered the launch of the Supers. AMD dropped the price of their own product yes, but that also further emphasised the performance deficit 2060 and 2070 had. Nvidia's response was more power for more money, rather than price cuts.

Some people are funny. This is pocket change to a large proportion of buyers, absolute pocket change. Like you or me losing a £20 note :D

They simple have to cater to all segments, low and v high! £100 to £3k (Titan), that should cover it.

The Super didn't magically appear out of thin air. It must have been planned for a while.
AMD have done the same thing recently with the XT CPUs.

That's true there are some communities in pc gaming that couldn't care less about how much nvidia is charging. If you take a look at sim VR forums for example there are people lining up to buy the 3080ti no matter the cost.
