NVIDIA RTX 40 series thread

[adamr]

I haven't followed much of the issue, but I have a simple suggestion for 4090 owners. Leave the power slider at default, or maybe do an
undervolt, less power is better until there is some clarity from Nvidia

Absolutely agree …

Jis guys if that amd is for example only 15% slower than the 4090 I may very well buy one immediately. I mean no burning plug issue, no need to upgrade chassis.. could be a very smooth upgrade for me

I`m in the same camp. I`m not willing to take a chance on this connector. There is clearly something up with this spec from a design perspective.

This may help some current 4090 owners.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 is 19% faster than RTX 3090 Ti in the first gaming review - VideoCardz.com

NVIDIA RTX 4080 tested Big Hardware Player (硬件大玩家) delivers another pre-launch review of GeForce graphics card. This content creator and reviewer was the first to share RTX 3080 Ti and 3070 Ti benchmarks, so this is not the first time we are getting early results from him. This time around he is...

What pricing are we looking at locally by your estimation. 25 000ish?

More like 30-35k avg …

On a $1000 card when the $1600 was going for 38k cheapest?

 

[Nyt Ryda]

RTX4080 looks like the best buy for 1440p. Still overpriced though.

Its a $1199 card. I'm sure the Palits and Zotacs will come in at the mid 20s.

I was speaking to @Pickled_Dick about his AMD choice not about the 4080. Couldn't care about the 4080.

Oh sorry thought you talking 4080. Yeah hoping 25k-30k for

What fantastic performance from the RTX 4080. But the worst price imaginable.
For the 1st time I'll be voluntarily going AMD, 7900XTX can be brought in for R22K incl duties & shipping. Sucks in RT games (Seems to be between 3070 Ti and 3080 10GB level)but with FSR 2.1/2.2 and FSR 3.0 coming this isn't much of an issue at all.
Well done to NVIDIA on the tech, shame on them for the price. IMHO $400 ~ $500 over what it should be.

100%. It's a $899 card at best but if should've been $699 to $799 like the 3080 (if the shortage boom never happened lol).

I got the tuf 3080 at launch for R19.5k. I would order a 4080 right now for that same price if I could

If you look at the sliders on Wootware, Palit 4080 starts at R29k lol.

Then the 4090 is a no brainer, only an idiot would go for a 4080 at that price. Asus is probably well over R35k then.

 

[xplodinfart]

For me it would make more sense to just buy a 4090, more performance gain for your money

I will give you an estimate when i have a bit more info

 

[Nyt Ryda]

Im getting my predictions in.

I think the 7900XTX is going to be R26k at Wootware.

Performance 5% less than the 4090 at 1440p, but just on par with the 4080 at 4K.

NVIDIA will push DLSS 3.0 in games and try make up sales with a cheaper higher clocked 4070.

The Strix price is on the MSI product, I call fake!

 

[mooNshader]

4080 is terrible value , as a long standing green team supporter Im very dissapointed , 7900XTX this gen is where its at price/performance.

Definitely in line for local pricing, but as Gouhan said it can be imported for around R22-23k (and not for a palit)

Since I'm only aiming to change the gpu in Feb or March I'm sure I will be able to find some nice deals on Amazon by then. But I will check local first!

During the first 3 months you won't be able to use Amazon though, they only get proper pricing well after launch.

Agreed. Had a card from every generation of Nvidia since my GTX 670 and this is the first time I'm weighing up getting an AMD card or not getting a card at all - as my GPU is more than adequate for the games I play.

Pricing is crazy. I haven't watched any 4080 coverage but from what I understand, you either get a 4090 or get a 3090Ti. My only issue with a 4090, and this is something @adamr mentioned previously. To get a 4090, you'd possibly need to get a bigger chassis, you'd ideally get a 1000w+ ATX 3.0 power supply and then get a proper power adapter from Corsair/Cablemod, which I'm sure won't be cheap. All that - to get a 4090. You're looking at R10K ontop of whatever 4090 you want. Pricing aside, you'll have a card/4090 which has multiple reports of burnt connector issues - yikes.

Also ZEN 3D models ..... mmmm AMD is on a roll
