    Are we really having a "finewine" discussion on a reputable enthusiast forum ? I thought adoredTV bots either died down when they saw it's not really a feature of any card that wasn't performing to its fullest to begin with (facts) or they just confine themselves to his comment section.

    Here's 6800XT vs 3080 on Hardware Unboxed at launch, 3% faster at its best case 1440p resolution

    View attachment 16292

    Here they are in mid-2022, also 1440p tested by Hardware Unboxed, with 3080 faster overall.

    FACTS

    as for the 4080 vs 7900xtx @tunejunky, you're incorrect either, 4080 wins easily in performance, efficiency, features, not to mention its workstation performance is off the charts compared to amd. FACTS.

    not only are you just "a troll", you're always the biggest one in any nvidia thread, relying on yt amd circle jerk channels feeding you their clickbait agenda instead of doing your own fact check like the others.

    I'm already not buying at these current prices, so if they don't reduce or god forbid increase, i'll just buy more games for my PS5. Nvidia and AMD can keep their stock.

    BestBuy price cuts (MSRP → new price):
    • GeForce RTX 3090 Ti: $1999.99 → $879.99
    • GeForce RTX 3080 Ti: $1199.99 → $719.99
    • GeForce RTX 3080: $699.99 → $419.99
    • GeForce RTX 3070: $599.99
    • GeForce RTX 3060 Ti: $399.99
    • GeForce RTX 3060: $329.99 → $299.99
    US retailer is running clearance discounts on GeForce RTX 30 cards from NVIDIA.
    https://videocardz.com/newz/us-reta...s-edition-gpus-rtx-3080-cheaper-than-rtx-3070

    The price cuts apply to most RTX 30 cards, but RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 Ti models were not affected by the new deals. This means that RTX 3080 offered at $419.99 is currently cheaper than RTX 3070 Ti at $599.99. Probably the most interesting price cut is for the RTX 3060 model, which is now listed at $300, which is around $60 cheaper than any custom model sold by the same store...

    Should be interesting to see if Steam Hardware share continues to increase.

    Yes but Steam S. have too much Laptops, so it's not only DIY PCs.

    Nvidia GPUs made by Intel look like they're actually going to be a thing

    Ever seen a man eat his own head? Probably not, but you're very likely going to see something almost as strange, an Nvidia GPU made by none other than arch rival Intel.

    Nvidia's CEO and leather jacket aficionado Jensen Huang has confirmed that the company plans to use Intel's new cutting-edge chip production facility in Arizona ...

    I am starting to really hate NVIDIA, not only for pushing GPU pricing to ridiculous levels, but also because they are intentionally limiting the amount of VRAM on their mid-range offerings in comparison to the competition, i.e. AMD and Intel.

    I only play games at 1440p and bought my 10 GB RTX 3080 last August as a replacement for my then-almost 5 year old GTX 1080 Ti, which has 11 GB of VRAM (more than the newer card!). I expected this card to last me 2-3 years and hoped that by then the GPU pricing would have stabilised to more reasonable levels. However, I am now noticing newer games such as Hogwarts Legacy and Resident Evil 4 Remake requiring more VRAM to run with ray-tracing even though the card itself is more than otherwise capable of running the game with decent framerates. In the case of Resident Evil 4 Remake I cannot even play the demo with ray-tracing as it will crash after a few minutes. Lack of VRAM has been a problem with NVIDIA cards for years now and just makes their offerings look poorer value in comparison to AMD's cards who offer 12-16 GB on mid-range cards.

    The only upgrade path for me currently is the 16 GB 4080 which is priced at £1,200 - £1,300 here in the UK. The 4070 Ti isn't even a consideration at this point, having only 12 GB of VRAM and underwhelming performance versus the 3080 (unless you enable the 'fake' DLSS3 framerate feature in supported games). I paid £750 for my RTX 3080 but the next-gen equivalent costs almost twice as much! No wonder these cards aren't selling and are easy to find in stock on just about every website I've looked at. Of course, I could switch to AMD but, personally, I find their GPUs to be unexciting and usually way behind NVIDIA in terms of technical features such as DLSS and ray-tracing. And Intel are just so far behind both right now, being late into the market, that I would never buy one of their cards, especially with a large library of new and older games.

    I hope that the RTX 5000 series cards are more reasonably priced because otherwise the RTX 3080 may well be my last GPU purchase. The current pricing is out of control and I am not comfortable paying £1,200+ for a new graphics card. I look at my PS5 and Xbox Series X and really appreciate how much value I am getting for a mere £450.

    Can you sell your 3080 and grab a second hand 3090?
