AMD's event is a mere 45 minutes long so not expecting much, although we already know nothing high end from AMD any more so I guess it makes sense.

Probably just announcing the cards, talking about AI and showing a few benchmarks, I doubt we’ll get prices as they will need to wait for Nvidia to set the price so they can undercut by $50

This.

At this point, nobody can be angry at Nvidia. Blame the folks who continue to pay £1000+ for a GPU, as this gives them a green light to continue charging those kind of prices.

Blame those who feel the card gives more value than the money they spend on it?

You think people should not purchase the 5090 so that you can get it cheaper?

This attitude really....

I and many others are not bothered about the 5090 pricing. At the end of the day, that is the top tier, cream of the crop performance GPU. That should be priced accordingly and if folks want to purchase that then fine for the reasons above.

I’m on about further down the stack for the 60 and 70 series. Traditionally entry level and mainstream models.

When was the last time we had it where the top end card was twice as fast as the one below? 5080 in SLI (I know, SLI is dead) would still be slower than a single 5090.

Won't be twice as fast in games though, but ye cores have near linear scaling in cuda and fp32, so it will be double performance in many applications

You'd expect it would be twice as fast assuming the CPU isn't getting in the way?

Double the cores or thereabouts but not double the TDP so I suspect the boost speed will be limited on the 5090 to reign in the power usage. The 5080 will be pushed as far as they dare which hopefully means excellent undervolting headroom on that card.
