maybe AMD just pump massive voltages through them

*** The AMD RDNA 4 Rumour Mill ***
- Thread starter humbug
- Start date
No, I am just scanning my local marketplaces in the EU.
What it looks like is that Nvidia have cut the price of the 4080 Super stock to match the 5070ti launch week pricing. The working assumption therefore is that the 5070ti is 4080 Super speed (ish) and therefore they need to shift old stock.
If the read across is 9070XT<>5070ti<>4080 Super (raster perf.) then its likely Nivida will lock-step the 4080 Super stock run-down because they can't afford to without an excess inventory set of write downs.
Therefore if the Nitro+ launches at 799 or 850 GBP Inc it will still be at least 100 sheets cheaper than the equivlant Nvidia card and you will be paying the extra 100 for a bit of extra RT performance in the 5070ti and 4080 Super.

From early images I like the look of the reference model.
Same , only doubts by how much performance to be had being lower powered compared to the higher aib
Could stretch to that if I had to, but it would have to be right at the top end of the rumoured performance. Basically needs to go toe to toe with the 5080 for that price to be worth it for me. Hoping it's 600ish

The 5080 spec was known about before AMD delayed their launch

They have said they want to target the mainstream, that's 7800xt or 7900gre pricing, anything beyond that is enthusiast imo, although AMD will probably just follow Nvidia instead of actually trying to shake the market up

Well they have shifted a heap of XTX and XT's by the look of it, thanks to nvidia. 
id rather not spend that, but im not going to spend 30% above MSRP for a 5070ti..

Having no FE is a major bummer, but I can see in a few months it settling close to msrp there cant be that many people left to buy units surely..
Of course, but I don't think anyone was quite expecting how poor the improvements would be over the 4080 / 4080 Super.

Which really leaves AMD with two options, aggressive pricing and absolutely destroy Nvidia or copy their asinine pricing -$50 and remain second fiddle
I received my 7900xtx yesterday and the slew of new leaks has me 70% sure I'm going to return it

Box recommendations are always high. 6600XT requires "500w or higher" PSU, it's a 160w card at most
Yep that's what I am guessing.
