When the Gpu's prices will go down ?

[andybird123]

I have a 3070 so it does struggle in 4k so I am debating if I should upgrade or not..problem is there are so many cards I'm not even sure what's the next best GPU that's got a good price/performance ratio..

Nothing has a good price/performance ratio at the moment (unless your mental gymnastics allow you to think £1700 is a good price)

The only real option is to not buy anything and hope both AMD and Nvidia see a bit more sense in selling more units at a more reasonable price.

7900xtx.
One could make a good argument for a wide range of cards but 4k and 7900xtx is the best one.

I suspect most people will spend for a GPU as much as they do for a smartphone. Guess what's the most bought price range?

As someone who used to sell phones in a 2nd hand store the cheaper the better.

It actually surprised me how little people cared about the latest devices.

I think he's referring to the latest apple and galaxy sheeple that will drop near a grand each handset that releases.

Perhaps yeh but they will show the largest revenues because they are the higher priced products.

In terms of pure volume the cheaper products move far more units.

The fact intel are on the same Market Share as AMD on one launch of DGPUs when AMD has this generation plus the previous generation being sold at good prices now yet intel still caught up.

Intel has what 3 products? that fall into the dedicated GPU category, AMD has the entire 6000 generation stack and the new gen being sold in that same period. Yet only matched market share.

Now I'm assuming that the Market Share graph is only including the newest ARC series of GPUs I'm not aware of any other dedicated cards Intel does, so I would be wrong in all that.

 

[gpuerrilla]

I think if you look at the finances though intel has spent a crap ton on it. They wont be making any profits on that segment for a while (dGPU investment ARC).

No, I was referring to under $300 phones. One quick look at a place like kimovil will dispel any doubts

 

[gpuerrilla]

I dont think there are many new gpu's to be had for under $300 unless you want levels of performance from 2016.

RX6600 is pretty much the only one I can think of, maybe some ARC ones?

Yeah the arc are decently priced but that's because of right now, when they were meant to launch circa Q2 of 2022 they would have been priced like the AMD cards for sure. The A750 is between a 6600 and 600XT so that is at least an option for the entry builds, unfortunately the 3050 is still £300. In that situation I would rather have a 2070 which you can pickup for £200.

 

[kalniel]

Do we know what cards count for that though? Could be including cards other than GPU, laptops have always used Intel for a decade.

If it is all intels new Arc series though, I don't think it shows Intel is good, or anything to do with crappy drivers... more than people are not going to accept GPUs at such a high price and simply proves that the £200-£300 bracket is the sweet spot, that AMD forgot despite a massive campaign about it with the RX480 series and Polaris

It's discrete graphics cards, so not ones bundled in a CPU package. If you include those Intel have a huge lead in market share (71% share).

Whenever we complain about Nvidia absurd prices we must remember this is what we're competing with when they allocate Wafers at TSMC: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/chatgpt-nvidia-30000-gpus

Well worth it IMO as when the AI gets smart enough it can tell me how to buy a decent value GPU.

Nvidia has asked TSMC for a wafer reduction so I'm not following the logic there?

The issue on the Nvidia side is the vram amount. Sure, you can make do, just like you can make do with the 3070 atm, but it feels lame for the most part. AMD is ok on vram but it's knee-capped for RT so it's back to square one in a way. I'd say that nothing below a 4080 would make sense for you to upgrade to. It depends a lot on your games & wants tbh.

Intel Destroy's AMD GPU Market Share​

Guess which cards were going to be taken off production?

but they are doing that anyway, Nvidia are doing whatever they can to push margins or maintain them at crazy high levels. The problem they have though is what to do with the stock/product they are accumulating....

This ChatGPT thing is just to show investors they have growth in other markets because even when you have a company making massive profits if its not growing its share price stagnates.

come battlemage amd will drop to 3rd place? your thoughts?

I think AMDs share will increase when they release mid-low end cards.
