A large dose of who cares on this launch announcement from me, it'll be largely unavailable and massively overpriced any way.

Very true. God knows what the AIB flavours will rise up to!

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this point, retail products at speculation prices for what is essentially a black box graphics accelerator. That's where your 3080 wafer supply has gone boyZ

Anybody going to buy the 3090 Ti or try to buy it i don't see the point in it rubbish and underwhelming.

A6000, was that what used to be the Quadro series back in its day? I see it's £4,559 for it. Consumer cards are fast catching up to workstation cards.

Yup Quadro branding is dead, the new line of "Quadro" cards are now called A-Series. Sorry just saw that reply.

Anyone noticed that they only did a 10-15 sec blurb on the 3090ti in their ces2022 press video?
Kinda strange to me they talked more about the 3050 then the 3090ti. Or any other product/service for that matter.

well all those allocations for the chips that could have gone to a 3080/3080ti or 3090 just disappeared lol

Maybe a paper launch - with only really say 10-100 being sold just to make it look like they are doing something.

Why should you give a ****? Just let them get on with it and sit back & watch the show!

I can't help but think that the main reason to launch the 3090ti is so that NV can compare it against their next gen cards when the time comes, to make the price/performance look better rather than worse.
Prophecy for next launch.

Yep hahaha and now can sell for 2x - 3x the price!

Perhaps no real launch at all is my guess. They down played that 3090ti pretty speciously. No leather jacket. No separate presentation. No talking points. Just a quick presentation of the card. I do wonder if there were any wood screws involved...

For some reason I read that as the Matt Damon edition.

because they are taking the wafer supply to feed a new product at the top whilst not even trying to fore fill orders and demand at the middle, it would be much less of an issue if all tiers were being catered for but they are not. Its just another example of Nvidia abusing its market dominant position which isn't a good thing for anyone on the consumer side.

MLID says the 3090ti is because Nvidia is not happy that some reviewers are using the 6900xt for reviews and it wants to make sure the 3090ti is then performance leader in every game on every setting to make sure reviews use Nvidia GPUs in their reviews

The 6900X is so far ahead in some benches there is no way the 3090 Ti is going to change that.

There are even AMD cards at the top of the Heaven 4 bench on these forums, this has been NVidia's home ground for years.

The 3090 Ti may make up some ground but it is not going to be enough to beat the 6900X at everything.

I can see if being ahead at 4k but not many other places.
