AMD RDNA3 unveiling event

So pointing out the linking of disengineous figures makes me a shill.

Nice backwards logic you got there, but it’s from being filtered via AMDFanboyGlassesTm.

AMD have their equivalent to Shadowplay, Low Latency mode, DSR, DLSS, Adaptive Sync....... every "feature" Nvidia have AMD have.

So unless you didn't know that you must be talking about RT, in which case its only really viable if you're spending $1000 or more on the GPU, this for both sides. its niche.

This, just don't expect mega perf with RT.
 
So we are now buying in to features.

Why do AMD even have RT cores if you are going act as if they don't exist?

As the poster pointed out, you are cherry picking and not giving a complete picture. Why?

Not that I'd buy either of them, but the 4080 is worth a small premium over the 7900xtx. More power efficient and much better RT.

RT is a secondary feature even to the die hard RT fans.

From memory, technically the 4090 achieves 4 x performance using RT and DLSS 3 in certain scenarios. Yet the die hard RT fans don’t seem to want this amazing performance increase. Surely if RT (and DLSS) is so important they would be buying these new cards.

So you're happy with Nvidia's pricing.

You can't have it both ways. You think $1000 for the 7900XTX is good value?

It's surprising how you go from $1200 is poor value for the 4080 to $1000 is good value for the 7900XTX. When the reality is the 7900XTX needs to be cheaper than the 4080 for reasons covered a 100 times over.

TPU, 4K relative performance.

RTX 4080: 96% $1200
RX 7900XTX 100% $1000
RTX 4090 120% $1600

How much faster would the RX 7900XTX need to be to be worth the $1000 price?

The 4090 btw is good value, just to blow your mind.

twll that to the 7900 xtx aib that cost more than a 4090 :D

I never said that, are you happy with the 4080 pricing or not?

like i sad the only thing Nvidia regret is not charging $2000 for the 4090.

This thread isn't about the 4080. The 7900XTX is poorly priced.

You can find my thoughts on the 4080 in other threads.

I already know what you think. AMD have pulled off a masterstroke right.

if we are talking about pricing we have to give it a frame of reference or there is no context, i also think the 7900XTX is poorly priced but the 4080 is priced like Nvidia think people are stupid or are so deep in to the Nvidia cult they will pay anything to keep their membership card.

Same for the 4090.

Absolutely this. Considering its something you need then just get it and forget for another two years. If you think nvidia will offer you 80% of that for anything like £650 in last gen you are in dream land. It also encroaches on the it was good enoughish last gen and 'runs out of horsepower' yet we have a mexican standoff from the loyal. Now Im not quite sure the 4080 is so good it beats all the cpu's so the jump there is the point where the price is simply too much. Are people just wanting the card to be £900 then the tipping point gives way?
