Have we ever seen the price of last gen GPU's go up above original MSRP before and during the launch of next gen?
Nvidia are trying that out for size and i bet it will work.

Not to worry, AMD never misses an opportunity to kick themselves in the balls.
Oh wait...

Yes, i know... its so frustrating.
Hi there
Those buying a 4070 please take note there are two types of 4070, 1x 8-Pin models and 1x 16-pin 12V models, the latter require the new connector and maybe boost a little higher in frequency, but also cost more been flagship OC models.

AMD researchers will be reading this, give us and tech jurnalists something to cheer about, take the win, its right there.... don't do a 7900XT.
The need to get the Navi 32 based RX7800XT out. Make it a 16GB card and offer it at under £500. Apparently it has around 2/3 the shaders of Navi31 and that would place it around the RX6800XT/RTX3080 level at qHD:
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX Review - Disrupting the GeForce RTX 4080
Navi 31 is here! The new $999 Radeon RX 7900 XTX in this review is AMD's new flagship card based on the wonderful chiplet technology that made the Ryzen Effect possible. In our testing we can confirm that the new RX 7900 XTX is indeed faster than the GeForce RTX 4080, but only with RT disabled.

Taken from elsewhere but - ---
In the crowded market of tech, A man in leather stands tall, He sells graphics cards to the flock, The sheep answer his every call.
With promises of power and speed, He lures them with a silver tongue, Expensive cards that they don't need, But still, they fall for his con.
He counts his money with a grin, As he watches the sheep pay up, A greedy heart that's made of sin, He never seems to get enough.
But in the end, the truth is clear, He preys upon the naive and weak, A soul that's lost, consumed by fear, His greed, a treasure he cannot keep.
So let us all beware of him, This man in leather, a thief in guise, And make sure we don't fall for his whim, Or else we'll pay the ultimate price.

Yeah tho i think it will be clocked higher.
also is it monolithic or still MCM?
Either way i don't think AMD can charge $600 for it, they may have wanted to but its also an oportunity to do it right, Nvidia are not going to drop the 4070 to $500, i think Jens would sooner stab himself in the eye with a pen.
MCM I think.

What a shame, I'm in the market for a £600 new card.
If only it had more vram, a bigger bus and was a good bit faster

Yawn. Unenthused.
Likewise, but realistically is there anything else out, or about to release, worth considering around the same £500-600 price point?What a shame, I'm in the market for a £600 new card.

I get that it’s more of an overpriced 4060 than an actual -70 series cards but in 2023 given the market right now it doesn’t seem unreasonably priced given the performance and feature set it has IMO.

Well, not anymore. But it seems the only advantage we have at that price point is DLSS 3 and better power efficiency.
This sort of performance is already available for similar money.
This does obviously supersede anything in that orbit due to it being new and efficient, but it is still a bit rubbish.

Ah but if you go one generation further down the GTX 770 was a lemon, too.From Paul's Hardware:
From Paul's Hardware:
The 4070Ti should have been the 4070 and the 4070 should have been the 4060ti basically.
It was.
Technically the AD104 is really a GA106 replacement. So the RTX4070TI should have been an RTX4060/RTX4060TI! But even the change you suggested would have at least improved VRAM by 50% and it shows you how greedy Nvidia have been this generation,especially with cratering RAM prices.
