It wasn't ever going to replace Vega?

Was more on about the R7.

 

[Curlyriff]

Meh no surprise, said would be £500. Not worth it. Needed to be at least £100 cheaper.

 

[muon]

Gears 5 bundled. Not bad.

5700XT better than RTX 2070 and $50 cheaper.

 

[HeX]

DOA at those prices... Especially when you add on cost of 3rd party cards...

 

[hyperseven]

Gears 5 bundled. Not bad.

no, MS PC gamepass. It didnt say the length could just be a month.

 

[JediFragger]

They’ll sell a few before the nvidia smack down no doubt

 

[Phate]

Gears 5 bundled. Not bad.

5700XT better than RTX 2070 and $50 cheaper.

Xbox Game Pass PC for 3 months bundled.

If you game a lot, its excellent.

 

[Phate]

no, MS PC gamepass. It didnt say the length could just be a month.

Confirmed 3 months, it was in the small print.

 

[.:MBK:.]

was that 3 months of game pass, isn't that like £4/month when not on special?

Now we have to see is the rumoured $100 price drop for the 2070 pans out

 

[HeX]

Should have been $399/$299 and they'd have sold like hotcakes...

 

[Stephanie Peterson]

Yeah cheaper than a 2070, decently faster, has a better software and driver ecosystem.
$50 cheaper.

Just got it, would have preferred say $439 though.

 

[Martini1991]

So, all we need is Nvidia to launch a $100 price drop and announce these supers at the previous price point?

 

[.:MBK:.]

going to make pricing too tight at launch once OEMs and launch day premiums are applied, going to be nearly R7 money if they aren't careful over their channel pricing.

 

[cainer]

meh, i'l keep my 7950 for a bit longer

 

[Martini1991]

Also now that VII is EOL.
Navi 5700XT is the best GPU AMD are offering.

In that context is it really good enough for the price point?

 

[Tute]

As a Vega 64 owner i'm basically being offered the same performance for what, a £100 premium over the current Vega deals? It seems AMD's biggest problem here is it's own stock clearing sales.

I remember paying £450 for this card at launch and I felt a bit ripped off, yet here we are two years later and it's starting to seem like a masterstroke.

 

[stuman]

Is there a UK price yet?

 

[Phate]

was that 3 months of game pass, isn't that like £4/month when not on special?

No its normally about 10 a month.
