yes, I did also realise that! But it it's a term frequently incorrectly usedIt seems you did not get what I meant then. I do not think people who are saying 2000 series users are beta testing mean it literally. It is just a tongue in cheek metaphor and to me at least it is obvious why it is so broadly used
. Ie, a few bugs are found and "Why are we paying to beta test xyz product?" followed by outrage 
.Haha. My comment stands, thanks for beta testing the 2000 series for me. Looking forward to the 3000 seriesyes, I did also realise that! But it it's a term frequently incorrectly used
You're welcome, it's been an honour. While others have enjoyed their old tech, I've had pretty graphics, gigarays and....slow frame rates. But if you blink more often you hardly notice itHaha. My comment stands, thanks for beta testing the 2000 series for me. Looking forward to the 3000 series
.. I doubt that will be the case, maybe even a bit cheaper?.You're welcome, it's been an honour. While others have enjoyed their old tech, I've had pretty graphics, gigarays and....slow frame rates. But if you blink more often you hardly notice it
Well lets hope it's not a chunk more expensive than the 2000 series otherwise we might as well just replay all the pricing comments from the past 2 years
I'm looking forward to the Navi 23 too just to see how far AMD have progressed. They've done well with the CPU's, very well in fact but I'm just not sure they can pull out a surprise against NV just yet.
I agree a £700 AMD 2080 Ti beater won't be a great deal or achievement 2 years on but struggle to see how it's fair for us as consumers to tell a company what they should sell something for. Heck, I read the other day that Ferrari make £75k profit per car.....I mean that's more profit per car than you can buy a brand new BMW M3 for and a Ferrari isn't really THAT much faster or better, and probably less reliable...… The point is, NV brought us new tech with the 20 series and there was huge demand for them and no competition, hence they could push the pricing further. Both RT and DLSS seem to have evolved pretty well now, lining up a great 3*** generation.
So, there won't be people telling ferrari what they shouldbe selling their cars for and I don't think it's fair to be trying to tell NV that their latest GPU which had zero compeition should have been sold for £700-800 tops either
It'll be good to see how next gen AMD GPU's stack up against NV'd next release. Comparing to current NV GPU's will be pointless, assuming AMD launch big navi before NV do the 3*** series
Yep. Yet you have people in here seem to be happy with the idea the 3070 will cost £600. The mind boggles.
Not happy, I just see it as sort of inevitable. We've gone past the point of no return, and we've set course for ever-increasing prices, yet still people keep buying.
Haha. Yeah.
Yeah so would I, but I do not see the relevance of such example as it is extremely unlikely to happen and even if it did it is obvious no one would care about tiers. The point I am making is clear, don’t see the point of nit picking the part about tiers.
Lol.I have to assume that people really enjoy the feeling of bending over...
Wasn’t the 1070 better though? That could be had for like £350 as I recall or even less.
Well I got a Zotac 1070 Extreme edition on release from amazon for under £400 and that was one of the best coolers. I assumed cheaper versions would be closer to £350 at the very least. So from my experience price for performance has indeed always improved, even if that has slowed down of late.
