100% correct.Nvidia doesn't want to offer meaningful uplift at any of the price points Ampere still occupies.
They want to sell through their Ampere stock.
Tis leaves the door open for AMD.

Something that's dawned on me, if the 4080's are so drastically gimped in relation to the 4090 (going on this PCGamer article they're more akin to a 3060 Ti) then what's the actual 4070, 60 and so on going to be like. If they gimp them any more there won't be much GPU left.
e: I've not run the numbers myself but going on that article it seems...
3080 was roughly 80% of the 3090
4080 is roughly 50% of the 4090
It leaves the door open, but I'm not sure they want to go through, or may even be able to. One thing that is still relevant is the imapct of Covid and war on supply lines. Sure, the health impact of Covid has reduced dramatically, but the shock that caused to the business world is still well in place - There's more than one reason prices aren't going down again, but still rising.100% correct.
Ok, but they’re selling people expensive hardware and what you’re actually getting is a software solution!rasta is on the path of diminishing returns, unless you are okay with 5 slot graphic cards.. its pretty straightforward to see what dlss brings in terms of efficiency
reviewers seem to be stuck in the past if they cant see an obvious technological revolution, they are going to eat those words 5 years down the line and would have lost all credibility
but i am only looking at the 4090 when i make these statements, but still i believe this is the right time to consider dlss as a core offering instead of a shiny new add-on

Not sure how you can say that without seeing any independent review of performance.Nope. I haven't been on this forum since the 3090 came out and I bought it day-one from Overclockers. Odd thing to accuse someone of. These new cards are expensive, but the performance justifies it if you can use said performance. I have no beef with NVIDIA at all.
I'm not sure, I really want one of the AIO ones but they aren't coming out at launchI will be buying a 4090 day one – which of course makes me part of the problem. Not sorry. Not sure which AIB model yet. Quite like the look of the Zotac, but I had a bad Zotac card in the 10-series generation, which has put me off the company. The ROG Strix is often my first go-to, but the RS 4090s are pretty ugly IMO. Anyone else plumping for a 40-series day one? Which model you thinking and why?

I'm sure they worked all through the 30xx series life-cycle without ever once getting it running on 30xx series cardsI'm not excusing nVidia's pricing but for this software solution to work, it requires specific components and god knows how many man hours have gone into developing the software.
Is that a serious Question?@Gibbo Will you be selling the GeForce RTX 4090 Serious Gaming soon?
Thanks
My reading is the mid range and low end aren't actually going to be much more powerful. Maybe 10-20% faster. I'm hoping for better power efficiency and better prices but we'll seeSomething that's dawned on me, if the 4080's are so drastically gimped in relation to the 4090 (going on this PCGamer article they're more akin to a 3060 Ti) then what's the actual 4070, 60 and so on going to be like.

Exactly my point. Many here will get the 4000 series so why hate on them?Yeah, none of you should get a 4090 day one. Bad idea.
*hovers mouse pointer over 4090 pre-order button*
I see some of the 4090 cards have a price added in the description now - £1999...wowzers
