Personally I won't applaud Nvidia until they do the following:

4080 16GB $800 or less
4070 12GB $550 or less

The performance uplift otherwise makes zero sense because yes you are getting an uplift... For a shat price. The 4090 price is easier to swallow because of it's target audience who are the Halo card buyers. But the 80 series shouldn't be in the Halo card price range.

Those prices seem more reasonable, but given how they opened with the higher prices, do you think they would even draw back to the ones you listed?.

Something tells me Nvidia is gonna hold out a lil longer till more fish bite, and then try to justify their og prices, I mean we've already seen them pre-boasting about the queue's for the 4090's already, so that kinda gives us the impression that they are already feeling justified in their pricing for that card. 

Idk if it will be that low but I think they will get close unless AMD ends up being equally greedy. Imo Nvidia is trying to bait AMD into announcing a price before they drop their prices because AMD always goes after Nvidia reveals their prices and products and is able to position their products more competitively. Cause the 4080s are already in production and sitting on warehouses ready to be sold. There's basically no reason to wait until November 16th other than to see what AMD is doing first. If you compare that to Ampere where there was no price adjustment, the 3080s and 3090s all launched within a week of each other.

But I think the biggest indication of a price drop coming is the specs because they really don't make much sense. For $400, you are getting nearly a 40-60% performance increase if you go with the 4090 which has over 6000 cuda core difference? I think their strategy is to drop the 4080 price down and reveal the 4080 Ti that will compete more directly against the 7900XT. But we will see what happens in this clown circus of a GPU launch lmao.
