Oof Navi 31 on the 7900 GRE really got gimped with that 256-bit bus configuration. Should be $600 max imo.

Shows how far AMD/RTG and RDNA 3 is behind Nvidia with those specs vs their counterparts on Ada LL. And they still chose to sell at over $650.. what a joke. If it were $550 that would be a compelling buy vs a 4070. Seeing as it has more VRAM and a performs slightly better. But yeah, judging from this and 7000 series so far it doesn't bode well for the 7800/7700.

It's frustrating because nVidia sets the price and AMD tries to emulate it.

...When AMD could be undercutting nVidia, selling higher volume and taking more marketshare.

Yeah its also a bad look because they're also doing the same thing as Nvidia with the naming shennanigans and keeping the status quo of high prices. Only they aren't really competitive to Nvidia this gen in the DGPU space when it comes to overall performance, efficiency to supported feature sets. Had they been aggressive with pricing with the RX 7000 series cards and with marketed them right, and say "look we're cheaper (by some margin) and offer way more VRAM" people would sweep that up. Much like RDNA 2 is doing now in the lower end/mid range. But nope. They'd rather be greedy and want all the cake and eat it lol.
