Custom AIBs price was £100 more. It was been like that for every generation.You're dreaming pal
But the 4090 is already only 25% - 30% faster than the 4080s. If the replacement to the 4080 is not actually at least 20% faster then that’s a fail. I think for this reason the 5080 must logically be touching the heels of a 4090.
Surely Nvidia aren’t giving you mediocre 5% - 10% extra performance with nothing but promises?
are you high?Custom AIBs will cost £100 more
On the cheap skus you are correct but only for a short period around the time of release and are on an upwards trend from then ...Custom AIBs price was £100 more. It was been like that for every generation.
I got a FE for £1700 and a AIB for £1810 both within 2 weeks of 12th oct release dateare you high?
what was the 4090 FE like 1600?
how many 4090 owners paid 1700 then?
I didn't
they will cost from 200-500 more minimum. AIB isn't the exact same reference PCB with just a different plastic wrap and a different heatsink fan btw.
FE is my 1st choice but wasn't able to get one on release day and imagine this will be no different, the 90 series FE have always been tricky to get hold of as sell out almost instantly as they are the cheapest and are extremely well built with it .FE is the way to go for the sub £2K and £1K price point.

Umm, did Roman let something slip here...
At 7:20, he says "I mean the 5080 is already slower than the 4090" and he states it as a plain fact rather than a supposition.

so few games with low RT performance though, unless people really want the frame gen.If that happens people like mrk would defo be upgrading as the only thing the 4090 is struggling with is RT/PT.
Yep looks about right if not a bit high on some of them , the Zotac Trinity OC i got was £1810 ( just checked order on Oct 12th 2022) and is listed at £1860 on that pic ... pretty sure some non oc models were near on msrp at £1700... i wasn't on the site at 2pm as was going mad on the Nvidia site trying to get an FE and after failing for an hour came here upset as most were gone on here by then but Gibbo see one of my post and reached out to me saying a couple haven't sold /failed orders and can sort me one out ... he didn't need to ask twicesaw this posted on reddit from 2 years ago.
but all he prices say coming soon and no doubt the cheaper ones never had stock.
3 of these are almost the same FE price (fe was 1650? then quickly 1680?) there's no way they actually launched at that surely.
almost every card was +200 though
So £700 over the FE which was £1700 at release , yeah that Astral will be up near £2800 if not £3000 for the air cooled version.... rog tax has gotten worse over the years as my 3090 Strix was £1700 at release which was £200 over the FE .
I do like the look of the Astral but not a chance in hell I'm paying that much for it plus the fact it will eventually be watercooled once a block arrives I will try for the FE or possibly a TUF model ....

google tells me a 4090 gets 200fps with dlss at 4k , supreme preset ray tracing onLook at Indiana Jones for example.
At release it was £1699 but yeah did get a price cut within a few months.The 4090 Fe was £1579 or close to it then dropped to £1519 or something when the exchange rate got better .
Its all gone into AI performance which has over doubled as that's what Nvidia cares about now.The thing is and why I am not going anywhere near it and there's a few reasons at least for myself.
1. It's on the same fabrication process.
2. It's using 125w more power.
3. It has a bigger die than the 4090.
4. It has GDDR7 compared to 6x on the 4090.
5. It cost £500 more LOL.
So for allegedly 20-30% bump in performance what the hell has Nvidia been doing for R&D for the last 2 years because I am struggling to see anything at all other than Frame gen crap which I have no interest in.
