Everyone that will buy this 5700x is CONFIRMING that RX690 should cost 450 quid basically cause that's what it is... ReBrandeon RX690 but amd was like lets change name to 5700x and we can charge extra 150quid.

To those people the 5700XT is worth the $449, otherwise they wouldn't buying it.
Feel free to not buy anything or get a worse performing Vega 64 or 2060 Super. Or are they too expensive as well at $399?

You can't be serious. The 2060/2070 supers are the same chips that are currently on the market atm in different configs (2070 super being a tu104 but still on the market). The 5700xt is a brand new chip that has never been on the market. None of them are re-brands but one is more than the other. I will leave that for you to figure out but it's not hard in the slightest. If the RTX2070/super is worth $500 then the 5700xt if within 10% is equally as good at $450. The name don't matter only the performance. I hope the 5700xt come in below AMD's rrp just for sane pricing but if Nvidia's card is worth it's performance then so is AMD's costing 10% less.

Agreed, the performance is fine it just needs pricing right in the current market, which has just changed. I'll see what the AIB versions are like for price/performance.

Has anyone confirmed if OCUK are open on Sunday for the Ryzen/Navi launch?
Is it launching Sunday? or is it just the NDA being lifted?

AFIAK both happen on Sunday

Sure they are not
Ano atm no GPU's are worth the price going. Everyone that gotten 1080ti around 625 quid got best deal of last few years.

If this happens, pending reviews. I could be tempted to even get the anniversary card.

I would not even look at those prices
$350 is £280, then add VAT so £336. The add the usual premium because we are in the UK, so £350 minimum. And that is for the blower card, and no doubt suppliers will get a limited number on release day so can add a premium to that. I reckon £400 on release day for the 5700

No, they're not. Changing the name before a brand new product is released is not even remotely the same as rebranding an existing product.Sure they are not

still overpriced lol
Don't worry, these are only the starting points.
- RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary: $449
- RX 5700 XT: $399
- RX 5700: $349
Compared to what?
Still a high price compared to mid range price/performance champs of the past like the 7950. But I'll feel a lot happier buying the 5700xt if it's roughly the same price I paid for v56 at launch two years ago (£380). I fancy an upgrade as I'm bored of 1440p 60hz & buying NV..? meh
Oh and....

as to what docsonic alludes to, these are mid range cards with not so mid range prices..
If the mid range moves up then it's all relative, the only comparison that can be fruitfully made is against it's direct competition.

They are still under cutting nvidia by $50 and offering similar performance. $300 and $350 would have been better but beggars can't be choosers. Now if the AIB models are going to push prices up to the super prices then Nvidia win again.
