NVIDIA 4000 Series

...this really does pull the rug out from underneath Ampere. I sure hope Nvidia has cleared that inventory channel of Ampere cards....Q4'23 results on 22 Feb so I guess we'll find out then
Not sure on NVIDIA but we've had no 3090Ti or 3090 for months and we cleared our 3080Ti and 3080 12G a month plus back. All we have is 3080 10G at £700-£800 which is of no worry, selling silly fast and if they stop we have corporate customers who have demand on those.
Yes it is. A rebadged 4060ti.
Becuase it's been rebadged down from the ridiculous 4080 class it was originally launched as, people have just accepted it's a 4070ti, when in reality - it isn't. It was always a 4060ti, now NV can sell lower end cards and pretend they're 60 class cards, for more than the 60 class were last time around.
I'm assuming NV planned this all along knowing if they pretended to launch/unlaunch the original card as 80 card, if they were seen to to "back down" and relanch as a 70 card people would accept it and they have...
People are so easily scammed.
if its matching or beating last gens flagship 3090ti naming aint the issue its the pricing

Bring that 7900 XT down to £799, this x70 series won't stand a chance.

Nvidia were quoting the Steam user numbers early on in the CES presentation....+16% year on year....and this is in the year after lockdowns finished. We're in a PC gaming renaissance....
Sadly some people will buy - this "it is faster than the previous generation" so slapping more money on it isn't something the consumer should in any way support though. The 4080 should be a £800 card tops never mind any x70 class card.
Wouldn't touch the beta 7900xt(x) with a barge pole, you pay for what you get
I was wondering the same and if they are putting up pre-orders.

Nor me, would be a custom partner card.

This can't be real pricing, £800 for 4070 Ti?
Honestly if that is real the pricing is mental, will keep my eye on MM for a used 4080 later this year.

It's a rebranded 4080, will be plenty to go around for a long-time!

Still wouldn't touch them either given all the other issues
I had a 6800 XT and never had any issues with drivers or the cards to be honest. Can't vouch for the newer gens at the moment.
A lot of people seem to be forgetting that every generation the x70 card matches the performance of the previous x80/ti, the difference is it always used to be well under £500 which made it feel like a bargain. Slapping a "ti" on the end of the card doesn't change the fact it's a £320 increase over the 3070. It's a ludicrous situation.
RDNA 2 is great. Just RDNA 3 with all the teething issues of chiplet design, will probably improve after a year or so of driver updates though.
rdna 4 will be the money maker

The caveat will be game and resolution dependant - the GTX 980Ti for example can beat the GTX 1070 at times. Ofc your main supposition does stand; 1 step down on teh stack matches the last high end,

Always the same with AMD...
The steam numbers look good as all those mining Gpus nvidia sold have been going back to gaming rigs, new sales numbers don't look quite so rosy.

Agreed, the pricing is crazy, the only thing we can really do is not buy. Vote with your wallets people.
