So the 7900xtx has to be over 35% in order to beat the 4080.

whats with the flood of eastern European sounding women on youtube.
people watch just because it's a wimin or ?
anyone done a teardown yet?
I think she might be Dutch
Pretty decent channel too.
I never said I thought it was a good buy, my original post was that despite the price these cards will sell like hot cakes, as opposed to the people on here saying 4080's are DOA. I can guarantee FE will sell out tomorrow and OCUK and other retailers will sell all their stock. I defy anyone to be able to buy a 4080 by the weekend except on Ebay

4080 looks better than expected, lovely improvements in RT scenarios
But as I've said many times, I'm not paying more than a grand for any gpu regardless of who it is by.
The card is stagnation - 50% increase in performance for 50% increase in cost at MSRP, and if the competition is right, OCUK will also be listing some at £1500. Thats 120% price increase for 50% performance.
Had to happen,

NVIDIA class action claims GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card contains dangerous defect
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card has a defect that can cause a serious electrical and fire hazard, a class action lawsuit alleges.

Probably right, will have to wait until sometime early next year after AMD has done its thing before they're readily available. And even then the FEs will be hard to come by.

I went 1080Ti (FE) —> 3080FE, felt like excellent upgrade and generally good price to performance ratio, both being at/under £700.
Needless to say I’ll be dodging the 4000 series like I did the 2000 series.
Hopefully these prices come back to somewhere remotely sane by then.

Yup hence why I am not buying it nor amds gpus for the same reason
AMD one isnt out for another month , and lets be honest - you wouldnt get it anyway

Yes because I have never owned any amd hardware right....
2600 > 5600x > and just now a 5800x3d
3850 > 4850 > 4870 > 7850 > 290x > vega 56
Meanwhile nvida gpus = 8800 and 3080
If AMD offered much better RT than what I have now and the cards came in at less than 1k, I would happily buy it but they simply don't, that and FSR is still not as good as dlss in terms of quality and more so uptake in games, so in a few respects, it would be more of a downgrade than even a side grade.

RT is like marmite - either loved or hated. For me, its only in 1 game i play so its a shrug moment for me.
Yup definitely the case for many.
That's why I keep saying in my case with the games I play, I have played more games with RT than I have raster only in the past 2 years and I imagine it will only continue for the games I am eyeing up, everyone has different game tastes.... If I didn't care for RT (or dlss), I would have picked rdna 2 and rdna 3 over ampere and ada and it's the only reason(s) I would be sticking with nvidia.

Don't hate it. It is definitely the future, but right now it's niche, kills performance way too much and isn't in many games I play so I don't really care about it just now.

RT is annoying in a way as Nvidia are now ahead of AMD for RT performance by a generation and maybe always will be.
I don't yet need a card for 4K, still on 1440p, I'm still waiting for the right 4K monitor.
I look forward to all the rest of the AMD/nvidia/intel(!) cards and then hopefully see price reductions next year.

AMD are perfectly capable of catching up from a hardware POV, intel have taken the same approach as nvidia and been able to match their nvidia counterpart, I suspect once more and more titles end up like CP 2077, chernboylite, DL 2, metro EE levels of RT is when we will see amd put the real focus on RT though but they need to be careful not to leave it too long as nvidia are putting all their eggs in one basket with RT now (imo the right move given developers comments on RT as well as every industry and brand getting on board with it), not just hardware but software and also partnerships with game studios and game engines.
We still have yet to see any RT games where nvidias SER is being utilised as well, which iirc supposedly provides up to a 25% boost in RT performance on 40xx hardware, I believe cp RT overdrive mode will have this as well as portal rtx.

Next round of GPU's will likely cost 3K so...
