NO WAY DUDE!! I mean, it's not like everyone in this thread has tech as a hobby or anything....have u guys noticed the price of GPUs, going so low? 3090 for 1200 quid! new,

Also the 3090Ti has hit this level too, Zotac model.3090 for 1200 quid! new,
See 3080s going for £550 now on mm![]()
Hopefully people won't let them go for much cheaper otherwise I may just keep mine as a backup gpu![]()
3070 are around £400 with 3080 £100 more but better performance.
How much do you think the 3000 series will be come October? I'm guessing prices for the 4070 will be $499 with on par performance of the 3090ti surely that must mean anyone selling the 3070 & 3080 now is a good time otherwise the cost of them come Nov/ Dec will be in the region of £200 MAX but then who would buy a used 3070 thats probably been mined to death
I will offer you £399 and not a penny more! Why so low you may ask? Well simply put there is not enough vram on the damn thing.. How will anyone be able to play FC6 on it? I hear that’s a must play title, which therefore makes 10gb a deal breaker![]()
AndSure if you only test examples using certain titles then it will favour one brand over the other. For example if you only tested a few specific RT titles, my 6900 XT is faster than my 3090. That’s why it’s important to take a balanced view and test over a range of titles.
That's exactly right. The strengths and weakness or how good/bad a GPU shouldn't be based on a handful of games. As you say, certain games favour one brand or another. That attitude should be applied in all Graphic card discussions going forward. That's including the RT debate and the Vram debate. One game been better on GPU than the other doesn't mean anything.
Gold!!!!!Indeed, don't you know that a console GPU is better than the 3080. I learned that in the Vram debate thread. So he is nuts to be expecting £400 for it. (As an aside a 2070S is just the same as a 3070, I learned that in the same thread)
And what are you talking about, it's perfectly acceptable to use a cherry picked AMD sponsored game to decide if a Nvidia card isn't good enough. It's not logical to take a balanced view over a wide range titles. Of course the opposite applies if it's an AMD card. Here is a quote
And
But, as stated, that logic only seems to apply to AMD cards.![]()

There was a report recently of Nvidia doing another manufacturing run for 3090Ti - Interesting isn't it that they not only remain profitable at £1200 but they could be making more. That's a £700 drop over the launch price since April.
Ladies & Gentlemen I present to you that ridiculous and unrealistic profit margins are being sought, and GPUs are not a part of a free market economy because the supply is heavily controlled to manipulate the price and scarcity of lower margin better value products.
hope you're having an amazing dayPaul
I think the AIB 4090 versions will push 2kMy predictions, based on inflation and the more expensive node used for the 4000 series:
4080 = £850
4090 = £1600
I think the AIB 4090 versions will push 2k
Because that 2k price point aged so well for Ampere once crypto tanked right? (Dropped like a stone and stock is still collecting dust on shelves)I think the AIB 4090 versions will push 2k
Second hand prices are still a joke...See 3080s going for £550 now on mm![]()

Easy.
People who buy the halo card on release every gen will pay anything, if they went to 3K, they would still pay it.
