How? It's slower and more expensive.
The fact that they kept mentioning 8k gaming was abit of a red flag...
Got to sell the extra benefit of more vram some how!
Yeah its really not bad at all, i mean queue the hyperbole...... did people expect it to beat the 4090 or do people just like stirring the BS pot too much?
There is always the 4080, you don't have to pretend its a desaster to justify buying that. We all know its what you wanted to do to all along.

Maybe a 4080 Ti refresh card will be the way forward next year. Prices need to come down for me to buy though.
Is there a filter available to remove the usual anti AMD fan brigade comments?
For me I've always said and I'll say it again, I want to know how it performs against previous gen AMD cards. So we're saying now that rasta on point with a 4080 and with 3090Ti equivalent RT performance? And no risk of fire?
Just the price really as many have mentioned.
Hardly a failure.

7900 XT and XTX has high gaming power consumption and awful video playback power consumption.
RTX 4080 is king.
Nvidia need to cut RTX 4080 price now.
In that case why would they? I mean, put prices up right?

black screen during testing, crazy power spikes
at least if it sets on fire the screen will have some colour

This is what matters to me
Overall being able to compete with an RTX 4080 in non-ray tracing scenarios for less money will be attractive for some... Bit disappointing the increase in performance over last gen isn't as much as AMD said, and that power consumption is higher than a 4080...
Imo not a 'failure', but not as much of a success as might have been hoped either.
Will be interesting to see whether the AIB cards manage to get more than a few % extra out of it (which I guess they might do with higher power limits, but then that would make it even less efficient...)

Again, will look at the price OCUK offers for the XTX tomorrow. If viable (since the 4080 is outside my power envelope budget), then the XTX will be got despite the performance. Since I'm jumping from a RX580.
However, if the price is not right (it needs to offer the performance but at an acceptable cost compared to previous gen), then a lower gen card will be sought instead. Since then I can upgrade the PSU and the GPU to a newer one a few more years down the line as well. Key thing here is; Options.
Right now, just waiting on tomorrow to see what choice is made for me.

Can see why Nvidia cancelled the 4080 12gb.. the 7900XT would blow it out the water.
Looks like there's still room for driver improvements - RT performance is a bit more mixed than usual - some titles the cards are 3090 levels of performance, others they're more like 3080. If they can work on the latter to bring them to 3090 then that's more than enough RT for me for now.
Worrying drop off at 4K for the XT though, bit nervous that the 7800 will cut the cache too much further and hamper 1440p performance.. though the difference in requirements is quite large so maybe not an issue.
