NVIDIA 4000 Series

Interesting, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that :D

Text is far better on my CX, it's not like reading when I'm drunk. DOn't get me wrong, I like the monitor but I wouldn't put it in the same class, a 4K version at about 34-40 will be my next switch, I wouldn't have got this res were it not for lack of choice.
I think there’s a decent amount of buyer bias with the rest of those posts. There isn’t a single monitor that’s anywhere near the league that a C9 onwards has.
 
Still rocking my 55" B7, great TV! Still getting updates too!!!
Still rocking a C7 65 for my living room tv. Its 5 year guarantee is up on 5th Jan 2023 and it decided to develop a cluster of dead pixels a fortnight back, within a week, x2 technician's were at my door fitting a brand new panel, a cx panel too. No chance of VRR 120@4k still though, as the C7's hardware isn't HDMI 2.1 compliant but I can still notice the panel is a tad brighter now, which was a nice little bonus.

Sweet man, looks like it chose the right time to develop!
 
hehe maybe a little christmas day hyperbole, but it's still an excellent screen and very noticeably brighter at stock versus my cx 55 using these settings and turning abl off with a service remote

any good?

the alienware is currently bugged with hdr content on nvidia cards with clipping at around 500nits according to reddit etc, so hopefully with newer firmwares it should only get better

Maybe I perceive the brightness greater as the 34 AW is tiny compared to my CX so overall seems brighter who knows.
 
So happy with my B7, no complaints. Got it for 1k way back when and it's been great :cool:

Running a PG48UQ on desktop now :)

Same, i have the B9 and love it. Got it for £993 as I recall with 6 years warranty. 3 years left now.

After that I may go for a 77" but this time I may go for an A series as I noticed I don't do any gaming on it and it's purely for TV streaming and movies. Saw a 77" A series for around £1600 or there abouts not long ago, so by then they may even be close to a grand by then.
 
That's more down to windows/software not supporting the sub pixel arrangement. Only really noticeable if pixel peeping in my experience, helps using some 3rd party software to improve the text too
You can almost fully fix it with better cleartype tuner tool. Just run once, set 2200 and RGB, done.
 
So 4070 Ti will be 15% better than the 3080. It really needs to be $700 or less for a meaningful increase in frames/$. Any chances of that?

Will they learn from pricing Turing too high during a crypto crash. They aren't just competing against AMD, but also their old cards (3080 12GB for example).

Will they learn? No.
This this the gpu they wanted to call a 4080 so that people with a 3080 might be interested in it.
 
They won’t learn, but the UK market is not taking this crap from them. Long live the 4080… to sit on shelves and gather dust.

The 4080 FE has been in stock and still is in stock since 13 Dec.
 
I don't know what's worse, that the 4080 is still in stock or the arguably worse and just as expensive (or rather more expensive now....) 7900xtx is mostly sold out :o :cry:
 
The 7900XTX is cheaper. It's also a definitely a better buy than the 7900XT which can't sell out at £900.

It will struggle soon imo once we it's been resupplied a couple of times.

Even the 4090 isn't selling out at £80-£100 premium anymore.

Well, the Ampere cards are going to be gone soon (at a reasonable price anyway) and the 4070 Ti will still have decided advantages over both XT & XTX, so unfortunately Nvidia can just ride it out. If the sales end up too low then maybe we'll see some price drops, they have plenty of margin to spare after all - the chips are tiny! But if we assume it's going to launch at $900 then I can see it drop to $800 in the near/mid-term but not to $700.

Dunno, I think it will be quite far behind the 7900 XT and at $900, no one is gonna go for it given the 7900 XT can't sell. If the 7900 XTX is resupplied and in stock at $1000, then that makes it even worse.

Setting the price at $900 would be a good way of getting AMD more sales.

Only prices I can see for 7900xtx:

4080, take your pick:

When paying 1+k, what's another £100 for a better all round package? :)

I don't know what's worse, that the the 4080 is still in stock or that you bring AMD into the conversation every time it's mentioned :rolleyes:

Both should be **** upon, 7900xtx more so given all the issues it has :cry: But nope remember "nvidia bad, amd good!" and "how dare nvidia!!!!"

Nah. 4070 Ti will be the first DLSS 3 card under $1000, still spank the XTX at RT, and given real pricing will actually have a wider than $300 pricing gap than MSRP to 4080 (speculation on my part). And now with the AMD reference cards being a ****-show thus driving that interest towards custom cards (where AMD's pricing advantage will narrow) I think it will end up even better positioned. Besides for CoD AMD has no real selling points for their RDNA 3 cards, and that was already an uphill battle given the Nvidia marketing juggernaut. Since most people buy based on brand & word of mouth, and given how poor RDNA 3 reviews & reception has been, it's going to be impossible for AMD to really do much. Luckily they don't have to, because they only sell small quantities and are still very poorly supplying for mobile which is where most of the market goes anyway.
