goopy20 said: 12 Tflops still sounds pretty ridiculous when you consider that a RTX2080 TI alone costs $1500. Prices will drop for sure when the RTX 3*** series come out but that would still mean that these consoles will probably perform on par with RTX 3070, which will likely hit the market for like $800. It's no wonder Nvidia is pissed lol. |
Exaggerating PC prices again? The RTX 2080 Ti is pricey, but not THAT pricey.
And why are you even comparing that GPU instead of a RTX 2080 (less than $700) or RTX 2070 Super (less than $600)?
And why should a RTX 3070 cost around $800? Both RTX 2070 and RTX 2070 Super had a MSRP of $499. Maybe they'll try $549 or $599 for the next 70-model, but I doubt that.
You understand that the current RTX prices are only due to a lack of competition and that Nvidia can adapt these prices very fast if they have to... they have done that over and over again (f.e. the GTX 970 for $329 MSRP, much cheaper than the GTX 770 with $399 MSRP).
When the new competition arrives next fall (new consoles + Big Navi PC cards), they'll adapt.
