** The AMD Navi Thread **

Nvidia has it listed at £475 and the only other 2070 super is £520 which is the Palit Super Jetstream. I wonder if Nvidia will do a switch when these become available as the FE cards are usually one of the more expensive cards. If it holds at £475 then i am pretty impressed as they are offering more for around the same price as a decent 2070.

The $ price is 500 which makes me think that £475 is a bit iffy.
 
I think AMD are pricing themselves too high if Benchmarks turn out to be what we think with Navi

The market has a Green Bias so they need to hoover as much as they can on the CPU side and just weather the storm on the GPU front to survive and hope they can come up with a long term solution

Saying that they are focusing a lot on consoles and as much as this place is full of wannabe experts only AMD truly know so we may all be talking mince

Navi made the £475 2070S a reality.

Without Navi there would be no Super Series and no price cuts.

In that case, Navi is a success even before it has launched. The fact that Nvidia wanted
to crash the PR party before the Navi launch is telling.

That's some pretty biased fanboyism like
 
Be surprised if the 2070s comes as low as 475, you know what the market is like and imho £520 or more is likely.
If it does come in sub 500 though then yeah AMD needs to adjust the 5700XTs price down a bit.

I am surprised at the speed the 2070super is coming in at, basically killing the 2080. I thought it would be at best 15% slower than the 2080 but it seems nvidia have pushed it a bit further - this is prob due to the 5700XT being close behind for less £s.
 
Hmm...2070 Super Founders £475 from their site. Interesting. But I'd wager a fiver they will never be in stock, so you're stuck with AIB versions at £500+ Remember Nvidia never changed the price of the 10 series Founders on their site, they just never had any stock in, forcing customers to pay for higher-priced AIB versions.

Now if Super Stock is plentiful then yes, AMD will need to drop the 5700 prices pretty quickly. If you realistically can only get AIB 2070 Supers for £500+ then 5700 XT will stay as it is (assuming, of course, it sells at RRP): a smidgen cheaper and outperforms the outgoing 2070, £70+ cheaper than a new card with tangible more performance.

I don't see 5700 prices changing.

Why would it cost *more* than conversion + 20% VAT.
If we're paying £520, the Americans would be paying $550 at least.

EDIT : https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/graphics-cards/rtx-2070-super/

I said £475 before I'd seen anything as 475 is $500 converted + 20%
 
i don't think navi based cards will be very popular, its not mainstream product like rx580 and in high end 90% will go with team green

Yes if you can get them at that but you know the way things are as the post above points out.
If there are plenty of £475 cards around then yeah AMD need to adjust, but we have been here before...

Actually, what's more likely is that if Americans are paying $550, then we will be paying £550 + 20% VAT. UK consumers always get shafted.

Not true.
I occasionally see *some* companies (Apple) stuff us by calling $1000 as £1000.
But it's rare.

Doing £1000 + 20% is just nonesense.

I don’t own any AMD gpus but i do like a bit of competition. Bargain basement 2070s - great, Let’s see what happens to Nvidias stock price over the next 12 months, because Navi has confirmed that customers can’t be mugged off any more.

Navi was mugging customers off as well.

I've seen plenty of one dollar equals one pound conversions these past few years. We are paying more than the Americans, that's a fact.
