We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
Fucking hell, guess I'm waiting on the 7 series and see if the 3xxx series drops in price further. No way I'm condoning that price.
RDNA2 is competitive for rasterization, RDNA3 will be interesting to look out for after today...
Ouch. At those prices, those ex-crypto 3000 series castoffs are looking like a better idea.
Are those 2x-4x numbers based on the use of DLSS or is that raw power increase?

1600€~ was the limit for me. But 2K ? No fucking way. Keeping my 3080 until the 5XXX series (which might be even worse in terms of prices lol)
The prices are insane but also - I have all the performance I can handle right now on a 3070 Ti. I play at 1440p and it's been great. I can't fathom who would need more than a 3080 currently
Funniest thing for me is the footnotes saying it's all DLSS at performance mode. Not quality, not even balanced. Seems like DLSS 3 is just a marketing rebranding.
4090 only like 1.5x faster than the 3090 Ti in some titles. Pretty sure it'll only be worth it for the benefits in RT titles.
The 12gb 4080 is basically a 4070 in all but name, the performance is worse than the 3090ti in some games and they are charging these kind of prices?
Def sticking with my 3080 for the foreseeable future.
absolutely DLSS , the chart linked earlier literally compares DLSS 3 (4000 series) vs DLSS 2(3000 series) performance.
By the way, Cyberpunk is getting an "overdrive RT mode" with higher fidelity.
Smart move. It's still the only impressive AAA raytracing demo IMO. Though the BEST raytracing demo by far is still Minecraft. And NVIDIA dropped that like a stone.
My 3080 tuf I got 2 years ago at $750 looking like quite the purchase. Probably not upgrading until there's a 5070 or Radeon 8800 that has more vram than my 3080. So looking at probably 5 years out of a 3080. Not bad.
Tbh a 6950 or 3090 at $1k right now even seems like a good purchase option for folks. More vram than a 4080 and probably not all that much slower at 4k.
If AMD can price a 16gb 7800 at $800 or less and it's faster than a 6950 they might have a real winner.

Radeon 6000 is generally as good if not better than Geforce 3000 in raster, but they're still behind in raytracing and FSR is no replacement for DLSS.
the problem for AMD isn't pure performance. they are pretty competitive there. but AMD can't keep up with the ML stuff. DLSS, RTX, etc. Their software just isn't at that level yet. And until it is (if it ever is) they won't be the best option.
This is true, but for games with support you'll be getting orders-of-magnitude more performance than all alternatives.
And without any image reconstruction, you'll still be brute forcing through the raw raster performance.
But that pricing though...
Yeah, it's a joke, basically using AI motion interpolation at DLSS performance mode to boost raster/RT performance and then slapping a double premium on the cards.
I'm still fucking pissed, it's absolutely insane that we've come to a point where one component in your PC costs more than what my whole build cost 2 years ago....and I have a 3070. I know we're talking about top of the crop, but it doesn't matter, it's an absolute negative for the PC building market and at this point I doubt I'll ever tell someone to build a PC over buying a console, hell I'm already looking at PS5 bundles again. My best friend told me "wait for the benchmarks", completely missing the point, it doesn't matter if it outperforms every other card by 30000%, the fact that they decided to price it the way they did just shows pure greed on their end. I was team Nvidia my whole 20+ year gaming life, but I really do hope AMD fucking punches them in the guts with their pricing, although seeing how fucking rotten every company has become, I highly doubt we'll see any competetive pricing.
How does a 3090 F.E. Stack up against 40 series?I always have a very severe case of fomo with technology

their software is fine. The reason why they have lower RTX performance is because of a lack of dedicated hardware, if anything. And FSR is extremely impressive for what it is, much easier to implement and widely supported than DLSS.
At least now I know to slowly gather 3.000 - 4.000 euros for the 5090
