That's fantastic news 
Maybe their market share will shrink to 89% with a bit of luck

I did not even have to click the video but knew what clickbait Youtuber it was from your description and the video title as my browser part blocks Youtube embeds by default.
I think they should completely lean into this and just say it for professionals only and watch the outrage that follows.It just makes me scared that Nvidia are briefing retail partners about 5080/5090s been for professionals only, when they ask about high prices. Also with how much prices went up Gen on Gen previously and the AI demand. In short it's believable

Saw that too, maybe that's why the 70Ti is pretty close to the 80 this time around (shaders-wise) to price it anywhere near a grand with the others way over.It just makes me scared that Nvidia are briefing retail partners about 5080/5090s been for professionals only, when they ask about high prices.

I do think it's Nvidia saying they don't really care about gamers anymore apart from the 1%. Which does make sense when their assets can be deployed elsewhere for so much more money.
We shall see, maybe there pricing will surprise everyone, however unlikely it seems at this point.
Yeah, the xx70ti series seems designed to upsell folk who would have historically bought the best price / performance xx70/xx60 card and bump up the price of the xx80 even higher!
Feels deliberate on Nvidias part to make the regular xx70 seem like a worse option.
probably because Nvidia won't send him one for free
Even the big channels have to send them back
All his videos are clickbait or have incorrect info. His Dragons Dogma 2 one cracked me up all his tests were incorrect because he left interlacing rendering on because he doesn't know what it does.
Tbh, the X070 is pretty much the new X060 in terms of where it fits into the performance bracket but with a much heftier price tag.
The current 4060 should have been the 4050.
