    Its sad that for a newcomer in the gpu space and probably driver issues ridden gpus cost 800$ and that is for a midrange card (if you look at the competition).

    If we lived in a normal world intel would be undercuting amd and nvidia so 400-450$.

    If it’s par with 3070 now it’ll be pretty poor come late 2022

    I wouldnt blame them if they charged 800. They know that even if they priced it @ $450, scalpers and greedy retailers would mark it up to 800 in todays climate. So might as well pocket the scalpers fee for themselves. :D

    Indeed. The graphics card market right now is so f**ked up that nothing needs to make sense. I would have been astounded to see Intel's cards with sensible prices next to Nvidia and AMD cards still boasting the lunatic prices. Of course if they mine well, like they should, it would be simply impossible for them to be affordable.

    If the drivers are good enough for miners, Intel has got nothing to worry about. The sales will be splendid.

    Probably depends what kind mining performance puts out, could potentially be better than 6700xt.

    Three cards are coming with forth one being rumored.

    512eus = 6700xt/3070
    384eus = 6600xt/3060
    256eus = 6600/3050ti?
    192eus = maybe finally a 200-250$ tier with no competition

    shocking, people will buy it none the less it will sell out it get scapled for higher and then next year prices will be littler higher and scapled for more. even IF and WHEN the "shortage" ends prices will remain stupid

    Yes 800 because hash rate will be nice so miners will get them

    GPU prices will not come down for as long as you can make money by simply running them 24/7.

    800 dollars for an unproven piece of hardware? Right...

    Looking back that was a good buy.
    I would have bought a 3090 for $1500 they day of release if I had known the future market conditions.

    funny looking back i was flamed for it, but itll still last me a year or two yet. Hopefully the resale will be decent, i usually sell on when warranty ends.

    you feeling ok? must be woke.
