Or even just 950 and I think they would do OK. The pricing of the 4080 has never made much sense. Even in the early days it was the only 4000 series in stock for a reason.
I've one has been on the ball the past few months, there was a moment where there was a 7900xt being sold for just that price. Might have been here on OCUK I think, Sapphire Pulse perhaps? Just check pricing history and it was. Few bits in July August and even in September.Doest AMD have their keynote like an hr before Nvidia, could see some chunky price cuts to say up urs Nvidia£699 7900xt be nice
XTX £799/XT £649/7800XT £499 looks pretty good to me...Doest AMD have their keynote like an hr before Nvidia, could see some chunky price cuts to say up urs Nvidia
that would go down like a lead balloon at NVidia
a £649 7900xt, not so sure tbh, it be rather tempting even to me, n im sitting this gen out
Exactly!!that would go down like a lead balloon at NVidia
Nah, they have a v small window to dictate the play for once. I say they should go for it!!
The only time I remember AMD getting in first was with the 5700XT and 5700 when they announced $450 and $380 prices expecting the new 20 series super cards to be more but when Nvidia kept prices static AMD were forced into a price cut 2 days before launch.

That's such a bizarre mindset to me. A larger cooler will always be quieter, assuming a similar level of engineering went into it. I want big coolers and the benefits they bring. There's no such thing as "overkill". I had a 4070 Ti Gaming X (the original) for a while and it was absolutely silent (since it had no coil whine either). You could press your head up to the case and not hear it. I recently tried the Slim model and whilst it's still a fairly quiet card, it's by no means silent. You can hear it even whilst gaming and the temperatures are higher too (though still "fine"). The lighting on it is really cheap-looking and ugly too, though that's less important. What is important is that the price tag hasn't changed - you're just getting a worse cooler for the same money. Celebrating that seems... weird.
Yeah, I remember that horsecrap 'jebaiting' business they tried to pull.
If your willing to pay the same money for a worse cooler than that’s on you the point I’m making is the cards shouldn’t have been this price in the first place and part of the scam was putting a bigger cooler them so they appeared more premium/high end than they actually are.
Things like this make me wonder if AMD would be even more greedy and exploitative than Nvidia if they were the market leader.The only time I remember AMD getting in first was with the 5700XT and 5700 when they announced $450 and $380 prices expecting the new 20 series super cards to be more but when Nvidia kept prices static AMD were forced into a price cut 2 days before launch.
Could a few bucks off make AMD's new GPUs a better buy than Nvidia's best?
AMD's upcoming RX 5700 and 5700 XT graphics cards are getting a price cut ahead of their launch on July 7, making them much more competitive with Nvidia's existing RTX cards, as well as the newly debuted Super RTX cards. This begs the question, was this planned all along, or just a reactive cut?
Because they want to charge £800+ for a 5070 and are making folks get used to such prices for an x70 card.
