    New gen, new thread, same old shenanigans.

    While Nvidia are readying cards that require their own dilithium reactor to power them, and HSFs the size of an itx case to cool them, AMD are playing the cool and efficient angle:
    AMD aggressively markets their power efficiency ahead of the RTX 4090'launch
    Headline figure of 50% better performance per watt

    I don't think Nvidia will care much. They'll have the fastest card and yeh it will have 600W AVG consumption and 1.21 gigawatts peak, but it's the fastest and ner ner ner. :p:

    Power efficiency for me. Considering energy prices it's a wise move.

    But then I don't need a card taking 10kw of power to produce a gazillion gigachads of performance to make me feel good about myself.

    It'll be a generation or two before I bite again, a 3080Ti is fairly competent.

    Unless of course they release a doubling of its performance for £500 then all bets are off :D

    Wait till the bots buy them up and the scalping begins.

    Might not happen, now that the ar*e fell out of GPU mining.

    6900XT in my system. Absolutely zero plans to get involved with this gen whatsoever.

    Weirdly it looks like they're keeping the 3060/70/80 in the "current" product lineup. Whether that's because they can't afford to sell the new tech below 4080 money, or they have tons of lower end ampere chips they need to get rid of first.

    Whaaaaa?

    Is that "normal"? I know GPU prices were temporarily insane, but I thought things were back to steady state largely.

    I've entirely lost touch with what components cost these days, but I seemed to remember that the last time I was vaguely aware of such things a "high end" GPU was £800ish, with maybe special spicy versions, watercooled etc, maybe at £1000.

    Hum..... £320 extra for 4 gigglebytes..... £80 per GB of VRAM

    Have nVIdia employed someone from Apple's product segmentation team?

    This kind of price difference used to buy double the VRAM.

    I expect there will be a few extra cores in there to further seperate them. But not enough to cramp on the future 4080ti super Saiyan level 69 card

    Much doubt. Many X press. We all remember how accurate the 30-series MSRPs were...
