NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

This gets said time and time and time again over many many generations and nvidia's sales keep getting stronger and stronger and stronger. Zero truth in it.

Yup, said it many times, we'll buy Nvidia, at whatever price.

Look when they released the Titan, the first 1k card, they flew out, they couldn't believe how well they were selling, they couldn't make em fast enough.

If no one was buying the 2 series, their prices would sharp drop, but they've been out how long now ?, and what are they priced ?, yup, the exact same as upon release, in fact, they've even gone up now, so they are still selling, and still selling well.

If we didn't want to pay these prices their for cards, we wouldn't, we'd just leave them on the shelves, and piling up in warehouses just gathering dust, and then Nvidia would sharp drop them, its as simple as that, but we won't, we are happy with the pricing, and while we're happy to pay these prices, they'll continue to be these prices.

Nvidia are not the ones to blame here, we are.

Remember, the customer is always right!.

I think that the earlier they release the cards the more they will be able to charge, thanks to the impending releases of the new consoles. Once the new consoles are released - or even in the close offing - then the value proposition changes radically and consumers are going to ask why they should pay £X when they can get a whole console for £Y. And then there's the whole competition thing, with the consoles being powered by AMD chips.

I'll not be paying £500 for 4k30, 1440p30, no RT.

You have to laugh, we've got cards costing around that price, that can run higher frames than that, at higher resolutions than that, and with RT on, getting absolutely slaughtered :p
 
I'll be going straight in on a 3080ti as soon as its release or maybe titan depending on what's released at what price I have 1500 quid budget fro titan but I would expect it to last me a good few years and pray it has hdmi 2.1 for my c9

You want to double that, as i reckon the Ampere Titan will be about 3k, as they keep going up every release, the last one was 2.5k. :p
