It’s not a speculative future, it’s happening now. People not buying them is not the point. The point is Nvidia delivered very poor price/perf gains from their previous gen GPUs. Instead they are overselling features as the new upgrade metrics and most of the tech press are happy to tow the Nvidia line.

Any news on 7800 xt?

They would have done the same thing irrespective of DLSS3. AMD was at the bad price/performance game as well if you remember the 7900 XT launch.
Whataboutism is not a good look. The AMD release was poor from a price/perf perspective and is improving but that was not the point being made. It was that on paper Nvidia have delivered far better “features” that deliver amazing performance. So NVidia bumped their prices significantly as if they actually delivered something worth the significant price increases.
So what do you get for that extra money? Dodgy fake frames in a small number of games. It’s marketing ******** and there are still people falling for it, especially the tech press.

7900gre review
Across 30 game average, it's on par with the 6950xt
"In general, it can be said that the Radeon RX 7900 GRE and the Radeon RX 6950 XT deliver the same performance regardless of resolution and ray tracing. Sometimes one or the other graphics card is ahead, but the differences are so small that this is of no practical importance.
Without ray tracing, the Radeon RX 7900 GRE is faster than the GeForce RTX 4070, but has to admit defeat to the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti"

In the UK it would be something like £630. Its the same MSRP as the 6800XT.

That would be insane considering the 7900xt can be had for £699
The probelm is it needs to be £500 at the highest to make it even remotly worth it but then that underminds the 6000 series that are still selling, considiering we now know the 7900xt can be sold for £699 even if it goes back up in price to make room for the 7800xt at around £600 neither card will sell and everyone will just wait for the 7900xt to be reduced again.
In all honestly I can't even imagine where the 7800xt will fit into the stack, with the 7900xt being £700 and EVERY 6000 series cards being incredibly competitive down the stack, it just reeks of a DOA card. In my mind the 7800xt is being set up to be AMDs 4060ti.

Such a sad state of affairs that AMD have learned nothing after the 7900 XT and XTX release pricing. Though this doe snot even look like it will be a UK release, unless it comes with a different name.

You're right and its the Sapphire Pulse, one of the better ones.

That's a good price fort that GPU, the GRE would have to be £599 at most.

This will never be a retail GPU, its clocked low as to not choke in low airflow OEM boxes.

Yep, and with the GRE only being a slightly hampered 7900xt the 7800xt has a significant shortfall of the GRE let alone the 7900xt. It has to release for around the £500 mark no other price point would do it and it would look over priced. Would be ok if not for the 6000 series still going strong.
Thinking about it also then leaves no room really for the 7700xt that would have to be what a 350-400 card at absolute best?
AMD have really screwed themselves rebadging the 7800xt to the 7900xt this generation. Hopefully they learn from this... but seeing it's AMD they are probably already in trials for their next own goal.

In this view there was is a big red banner over that 7900XT saying "going fast 13 sold this morning" it seems to have gone now.
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT Graphics Cards at Overclockers UK
Level up with the most advanced graphics for gamers with the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT. Equipped with incredible performance and RDNA 3 architecture.
www.overclockers.co.uk
The 7900XTX at £900, 7900XT at £700 and 7600 at £230 do sell very well, people do want them, at the right price.
Hopefully this is AMD experimenting with pricing, i have no doubt it is... and they are learning that at the right price their GPU's fly off the shelves, with a bit of luck in 2 weeks the 7700XT and 7800XT will be priced well.

Ultimately it doesn't matter if the RX 7700XT is only 20% faster than the 6700XT, at the right price it will sell, at the right price it is a good GPU, the 4060Ti is an RX 6700XT with 8GB for £400 or £500 with 16GB, its a pile of excrement.
Same for the RX 7800XT, not that good compared with the RX 6800XT its replacing, but if its priced well its all good.

10% faster than 6800xt according to HUB
The MSRP doesn't make much sense in Australia either; if the card was ever sold and at its MSRP, for 10% more money you can buy a 7900xt right now

What MSRP in Australia? He bought it as part of a pre-build, that's the only way to get it outside of China, I also don't know why HUB are pretending like this is a DIY retail GPU giving it a "US Retailer price" you can't buy them as retail, not at US Retailer, not anywhere outside of China, there is no such thing as a "US Retailer price" they don't sell them, at all
This slide at the top of the page...

Is fake, AMD did not launch that card in China with a "USD MSRP" China wouldn't even know what the #### that is, someone, probably VideoCardZ made that up, the real slides from that event are at the bottom of the page, the ones with the mandarin writing on them, funnily enough.
Tech tubrs getting sucked in by obvious fake rumours because they are desperate for content.
The 7900 GRE will never appear at OCUK or whatever American equivalent as a stand alone GPU with an MSRP / RRP.

Spot the AMD fanboy. You are so desperate.
Funny how these slides from the actual even are plastered with USD prices.
AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE 16 GB Launches, Cut Down Navi 31 GPU Starting At $649 US
AMD has officially launched the Radeon RX 7900 GRE 16 GB GPU which utilizes a slimmed down Navi 31 GPU for a starting price of $649 US.wccftech.com
Must be a fake AMD event as well.
You stick to being a fanboy and let people who actually talk to AMD do the reporting.
The 6950XT on that slide was $1099 and the 6800 at the bottom was $579, not $499. fake.
Where is this presentation where these slides apparently came from?
Someone else post it as you're now on my ignore list with the rest of the trolls calling people fanboys. grow up.
You have a time machine for 2021 prices?
Your posts are ridiculous. I see it time and time again, making very optimistic claims whic end up being wrong.
AMD don't need you as their cheerleader tbh, makes them look bad. Sounds like you would put silly prices on for the RDNA2 cards in marketing slides. Glad they haven't stooped to your level.

was surprised at it not even hitting 2000mhz. really nerfed it
It does make me wonder if it would be a good overclocker, although wouldn't that need a special BIOS due to them being severely limited nowadays or that just a Nvidia thing.
