Reality check, are AMD just as bad as Nvidia.

But you still have a memory limitation on the 8gb cards.
I don't think he's following the thread, i thought it was a joke the first time he said that.
there are some tutorials on youtube how to solder in another 8gb and voila! everyone is ready to go!

How much will the equipment cost me? i'm guessing i can't do it with the soldering iron i picked up from the Lidl middle isle....

Please give it a go and share your results!
I don't mind Nvidia pricing a halo card at silly prices, let them have a very high margin part as a halo product, that's fine. and it is over 60% faster than the 3090 at only 7% more money.
Yeah i'm not spending the value of a 4090 on the equipment to turn my 2070S in to a 16GB card and i doubt the oven trick would work

look at prices at ocuk - you're paying not even 20% more to get 50% or more in performance - that's why
lower tier - 4080 - and not even 20% ..

$1200 rebranded 4070Ti.

I hope that there will be some price drops after AMD release the 7700 and 7800 gpu's, even if their performance is considered poor.
Yeah. £200 off both would feel better.

I'm surprised the thread hasn't been axed!
But on topic AMD are perhaps slightly better but not good. The XT is more reasonable now with the price drops but is still more expensive than the 6800 XT with what I'd deem a small generational leap.
The 980 Ti to the 1080 Ti, that is the kind of leap that I'd like but doubt we'll see again at the high end in terms of launch price/performance.

Meh... nothing wrong with a bit of fun.
The is 7900XT 34% faster than the 6800XT at 15% more expensive with its new $750 price, that's still not good, but also much better than almost all of Nvidia's stuff.
The one thing with that is the 7800XT is very unlikely to be more expensive that the 6800XT was at $650, Actually given the 4070 is $600 its likely to be $550 at most and a 60 CU 7800 between $450 and $500, that would make the 4060Ti 16GB at $500 look absolutely ridiculous given the 7800 is likely to be very much faster.....
Again the 4060 series is just stupid, IMO that was Nvidia's biggest mistake being that greedy with such a crap card.

Do you think we are all grossly overweight basement dwellers?
Ye have little faith.
