RX 7900 XTX/XT Announcement day thread

[Colif]

I expect mine today but I need a few more things before I attack PC. Sometime after Xmas.

 

[Colif]

Ignores the Borg.

I didn't truly realise how big card was until I took it out of box and it didn't want to come out of packing foam. I am leaving in static bag until I am ready to put it in. PSU is really heavy. I should wait for the Extension cables for my fans, but its so tempting.

Glad I changed my case from a Meshify C to a Meshify S2, two years ago when I was choosing one.
The added size is difference between installing my new GPU and having to look at something else.
Meshify C only allows GPU of 315 mm with front fan mounted
My new GPU is 338mm
Meshify S2 just laughs as it can take 440 mm with front fan mounted
and although I have a AIO on front, its not taking that much space.
Current GPU is 267mm, difference in length between it and new is only 71mm
Approx 15cm gap between end of current GPU and fan on AIO (used tape measure)

Only thought of it watching this and seeing how close AIO is.

People at time thought it was too big, now I see it was just right.

@COLGeek did you get an XTX or just an XT?

It only effects reference card design, the non reference cards should be fine.

 

[COLGeek]

Just the XT. Zero issues with it, so far.

 

[Colif]

okay, cool. Just thought I would ask.

 

[Why_Me]

This card gets released tomorrow. If you play first person shooter games at 1440P then keep your eyes peeled for the reviews.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti to Launch $100 Cheaper Than RTX 4080 12 GB

A leaked NVIDIA company slide confirms that the upcoming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti graphics card will launch at a starting price of USD $799. This would put it $100 cheaper than what was going to be the launch price of the RTX 4080 12 GB. NVIDIA cancelled the launch of the RTX 4080 12 GB, and...

The re released 4080 under another name.
FE will be 800, gl finding any of those at that price.
Rest will be more again.

Problem with their marketing for 4070 TI is they are showing the card as performing 3x times faster than a 3080 in Cyberpunk but it is while using DLSS & frame generation enabled. Its not the metric normally used, it makes card appear way better than it actually is. AMD don't show results with FSR on, unless its clearly marked

Nvidia is a complete joke at this point, sadly AMD is not far behind by enabling Nvidia to keep this crap up. If this keeps up for much longer we can probalby start congratulating Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo for their increese in gaming market shares.

 

[Why_Me]

Other than Jay is a youtube drama queen that card did just what Nvidia said it would.

 

[Alm]

I am tempted by the 4070ti but need to weigh up what I can eBay to fund it.

 

[Why_Me]

MSRP for the RTX 3090 Ti is $2000 USD.

 

[Kaamos_Llama]

This is the full fat mid range chip. It costs €1000 here. I dont think this pricing is sustainable, waiting until later on this year when Nvidia sales are down a further 80% year on year and the price cuts kick in. They don't have mining to artificially inflate sales anymore, it has to stop somewhere.

If you have the money, no judgement have fun

 

[Alm]

I was hoping for a direct £ / $ conversion. If it's £1000 I'm not paying that much.

 

[Alm]

Might have been poor choice of words. I meant $800 -> £800. Rather than the exchange rate value.

This website thinks it might be £800: https://www.kitguru.net/components/...launches-the-rtx-4070-ti-prices-start-at-799/

Though I can believe they are wrong.

 

[Why_Me]

The 4070 Ti unofficially killed off the mid to high end RTX 30XX cards.

 

[Colif]

Jay wasn't alone, I haven't found any reviewers today who say this is a great deal. It only wins in RT against the XT

Steve compares it against 10 series cards at first since that is the most popular cards on Steam

When even the review copies are the OC versions, it shows there aren't going to be many for $800 if you can get any.

 

[Kaamos_Llama]

This is doing the rounds online, for a bit of perspective.

3060 Ti = 45% cores of a 3090, 40% slower, $400
4070 Ti = 42% cores of a 4090, 40% slower, $800

Drags thread closer to topic

its fun beating all the scores. Well, most of them...

[Colif]

3090 TI cost 4k here in 2020
I paid 1700 last month for a card that beats it.
I think that was value for money... its all relative.

 

[Kaamos_Llama]

RTX 3090 MSRP: $1,499
RTX 4070 Ti MSRP: $799

2080Ti msrp $999
3070 MSRP $499

You can do that all the way back to Titan OG at least. The x70 card always hits around the last generation top dog for Nvidia. Doesnt justify anything IMO

2080Ti msrp $999
3070 MSRP $499

I've seen that chart but tbh I focus on the average fps chart.

Its early for me, but can you tell me what difference it makes other than relative performance being easier to compare?
