The prices alone kill all temptation for me, it makes it extremely easy to skip this gen on nvidias side.

I don't know how these cards perform yet, so I don't know if I want one.
for the prices at launch, not well enough when you factor in a new atx 3.0 psu.
That's why in very curious about it - its significantly larger than other 4090's and it has more heatpipes than other 4090's but gigabyte cards normally don't have great temps so I'm keen to see if Gigabyte screws up again

Poll needs a "wait and see what AMD pull out of their hats" option.
As a 2080Ti owner, I was kinda hoping for a 70 series card at a 70 series price that would soundly destroy my current card. The 3070/Ti were *roughly* in the same ballpark as the 2080Ti, so I was thinking a 4070/Ti should crap all over it for about £500. But a) there is no 4070 for the forseeable and b) the 70 class card appears to be called the 4080 12GB this time, and that's about twice the price.
I could spend a lot more than that, especially as I can legitimately call it a business expense, but I'm not getting the "this is totally going to be worth it" feeling I got from my £950 2080Ti a few years back. So I'm thinking AMD might be the way to go. May even hang on and pick up a 3090 or Ti at a reasonable price (the non-Ti can be found for the equivalent of about £900 now, here in Australia), depending on how they hold up against the new generation or AMD when we actually see some benchmarks. And of course with AMD I could make a hackintosh...

The coolers on these cards are becoming extreme. coming to end end of days for the monolithic chip designs.
Better than having a massive radiator that was normalised even though offer minimal gains when it's an AIOi think we have gotten used to those noctua skyscrapers for cooling cpus.. lets just rationalize and move on

Sorry typo was meant to be 4080 12gb
ahh okay lol...
I waited for 4000 series, I'm still on a 980ti with a 3440x1440 monitor....
I had £1500 buget in my mind but not at these Nvidia prices what a joke line up.
I'm going to wait and see what AMD do on November 3rd and then go with the top end card even if it's over 1500
2 fingers up to NVidia and all that

I just hope for the people buying these that there plenty at launch and the scalpers don't get in on the act.
I'm hoping some scalpers bankrupt themselves.

Fingers crossed AIBs saying they’ve been sitting on stock since August
It's pretty disappointing to see that recent 'discounts' on current gen cards have been mostly revoked. RX 6800 and 3080 and above all jumped back up £100.
Retailers have realised no one wants to buy the 4000 series just yet with the prices as they are.

I intend to buy a 4090 on launch day but if i miss out due to scalpers i will not buy from a scalper at inflated prices, no chance.
Without the crypto boom and at these prices i'm hoping scalping won't happen this time.
