Nvidia have no reason to announce the next generation before big Navi is fully announced.
Nvidia have the highest performing gaming GPUs the whole time big Navi is not out. Nvidia can wait and see all the details of big Navi before the greens make a move.
It would seem Nvidia have room to lower the price of the whole 20 range to keep sales up while they respond if big Navi is competitive.

''We’ve made just 200 of these Cyberpunk 2077 GPUs, they won’t be sold, but you can potentially win one (details below). Each has a custom AL5052 aluminum shroud, with Cyberpunk 2077’s signature yellow styling, and powerful GeForce RTX 2080 Ti hardware underneath. And of course, it comes gift wrapped in a special edition Cyberpunk 2077 box, perfect for a collector’s shelf...
Here on GeForce.com, we’re giving away 77 of the 200 cards to our GeForce community via our 2020 #RTXOn sweepstakes.''

A shame for everything except my Nvidia stocks!

But on a more serious note, pretty much nothing is getting cheaper and as long as demand is increasing then prices will rise. It makes me laugh when I see many of the tech sites saying that using 7nm etc will reduce costs. Yeah, it will reduce costs for the manufacturers to produce them but in the end the consumer rarely sees any benefit of those reductions.

as long as people are willing to pay £1500 for a a

nvidia just made 200 scalpers very happy on ebay

I can see people selling these for huge profit in 57 years time on amazon, since by then everything will be amazon owned or nuclear war or some animal circus virus would have killed us all.

I would be nearly 100 by then, ill make sure to look out for one.

Nvidia have announced it on social media as the RTX 2080ti Cyberpunk edition .

Very limited edition down to 77 units.

Lol. How disappointing. What’s the point of this when the game ain’t even out until September?

 

[diamount]

Because they thought the game would be releasing in April, no point releasing a card that will no longer be top dog in summer.

It was probably some contractual commitment with the whole partnership, call me a cynic if you will but I don't believe Nvidia did this to benefit consumers.

Nvidia don't do anything to benefit their users, only their shareholders.

Nvida posted a pic of it on twitter last night. Looks like one of the ocuk resident photographers took it though, way too much bokeh.

That's just with DLSS.

Either that or Raymond Lin’s got a job at Nvidia now.

They do benefit users... just no more than they need to.

they used AMDs RDNA Ray Tracing

That would work fine, just at 1fps so a picture would work perfectly .

You'd be hard pressed to find a (fairly large) business that isn't run like that, these days.

It's all about growth; investor returns; shareholder returns.

The product is only good enough that the consumer doesn't switch to a different brand; bonus points if all the producers are doing the same thing, then you can have a jolly race to the bottom.

Then you can have some mergers, staff layoffs, asset stripping, and delicious pension fund raiding.

What fun!

pension fund raiding? must be british/american thing? my pensions funds are untouchable in trust accounts

@Grim5 You often hear reports in this country at least that suchandsuch company has a pension scheme deficit. Sometimes just before it folds.

Then there was the whole Philip Green fiasco. Take millions out of your failing company and leave it with a massive pension deficit of your own creation

It`s all about looking after the top 18% always has been you only have to look back over history to see process repeating time and time again.

According to 4k8k, that image is perfectly clear if you're using a Radeon 7950...
