But them cheaper ones will most likely be no faster then last gen 1080tiThere's a £5** an £7** one too. IMO if someone I due an upgrade just buying whichever one they can justify buying.
Have to wait and see. In new games I can see the 2080 being a decent amount faster than the old Ti (DLSS without RT used)

Me too, I think it's a great move. You have to get the technology out there and used by developers and consumers so it can be improved on IMO. I think/hope NV have it in a good enough state of development to at least improve on existing technology, to make people see the benefits it's going to bring with even further development.
Vega never performed in games for it's size and paper specs to be frank, so the price had to be fairly reasonable to appeal to gamers. If we are paying a premium for RTX then I don't care, personally. As has been touted for a long while, ray tracing is the future (and this wasn't just NV saying that). New GPU's are faster and with new features other than just DLSS and even RTX. New tech can get cheaper too, although I'm not saying it necessarily will in this case
100% some how the enthusiast tag is now someone with loads of money. No enthusiast is anyone who loves PC hardware and tinkers with it to make it better, learns what they can. The tag used to be about those that were clued up and could spend less but push that hardware above more expensive gear. These days enthusiast is buy the best lol. Big wallet with no experience or knowledge could get a faster pc so is a enthusiast
They're awesome products with zero competition at the level the GPU's are at, can't blame them for raking it in IMO. They even look fantastic. I remember once having a 670 - what a cheap plasticky feeling POS that was for I think £299.99 if I remember correctly. 2070 is a lot more expensive but looks as good as the Ti.
they'll have more for GPU R&D if they think they can compete better there.

I think AMD would have charged a lot more for the consumer Vega cards if they could have. Vega does have one hell of a spec though, so if you can put it to good use (not just gaming) then a bit of a bargain as a workstation card. Having a quick look at the specs the Vega 64 is 1.3TLOPS higher than the 1080 Ti, probably also higher than the TXp. Pretty good for what is now £450-£499 for those that can put it to good use.
I think with a bit of time AMD can put a better fight to Nvidia on the GPU front which should help pricing. Once they pwn Intel
