Who the hell is going to buy a 4080 16gb either, you may aswell just get a 4090 if spending that sort of money.who the hell is going to buy a 4080 12gb, its basically saying you cant afford extra couple of hundred quid more for the 16gb
scalper field day coming up i think
not sure, gamers that can afford they will pay through the nose, not forgetting the FOMO crowd, i guarantee launch day ebay will have 4000 series cards listedUnlikely this time. No more miners, and gamers won't be buying at these prices.
My old chap father runs a 1070 with a 1600AF at 1080P, runs all his games butter smooth at 1080P.If I were releasing games to the PC market, I'd be aiming for the lowest of the lowest specs. I'm still looking to replace my 1070Ti and it doesn't look like it's going to happen any time soon if ever.
Yea, I probably will lol. Bit too pricey but YOLO and all that!You skipped a gen, so I recon you will
They're still vastly overpriced4090 seems relatively better value than both 4080. You are paying a third more for probably half more performance instead of a large premium. Honestly expected the 4080 16gb to be $1000 and the 4090 closer to $2000.
2 types of 4080’s, havent they just renamed the 12gb 4070 to a 4080 as they couldn’t charge £949 for a 4070?
By launching the 5000 series at a 5% bump in performance Vs 4000 with a 5% drop in priceMost people who wanted a 3080 got one in the end, no one is diving on the 4000 series at this price point. Feels very much like the 2000 launch.
I expect Jensen to come out with "It's now time to upgrade from Ampere" in two years time.
Knowing Nvidia, they have probably blocked Ampere from using it. Maybe added a chip to the 4*** to enable DLSS 3.NVIDIA DLSS 3: AI-Powered Performance Multiplier Boosts Frame Rates By Up To 4X
Seems they have already got an impressive showing with dlss 3 in 35 games but that is an absolute kick in the teeth for ampere owners unless there is some hardware lacking on ampere? Especially with what AMD have done with FSR 2/2.1
