On another note AMD need to respond and soon, otherwise it's a wrap for the next few years.

Pegged against the RTX 2080, and using Digital Foundry and other sources, we should have current performance tiers as something like this:
| RTX 3090 |
>180% |
| RTX 3080 |
180% |
| RTX 3070 |
>120% |
| RTX 2080 Ti |
120% |
| RTX 2080 Super |
105% |
| RTX 2080 / RTX 2070 Super |
100% |
| RTX 2070 / Radeon 5700 XT |
90% |
| Radeon 5700 |
80% |
I'd assume Big Navi will land somewhere in the 120% - 200% range, probably around the middle, and consume more or less as much power as the GA102 cards.

If AMD manages to bring something 10-15% faster than the 3070 for the same price, it could disrupt Nvidia's business plan because they've left room for a 3080Ti, but not for a 3070Ti.
But Nvidia maybe (probably) knows more than we do, and the gaps are placed where they need them.

If the highest performing Big Navi SKU is thought by Nvidia to be greater performance than the 3080, by a significant margin, that's why they would want to leave not just room, but a huge price gap so they can land wherever they need to when they respond with the 3080Ti. Probably sooner than later. Below that there isn't as much wiggle room in terms of pricing.
Offer 3070Ti and 3080Ti performance for 3070 and 3080 pricing with Big Navi. That would certainly make things interesting. 3070 and 3080 like performance for $50-$100 cheaper would be the next best thing.
After multiple gens of overpricing, Nvidia didn't just all of the sudden decide to be generous for no reason this gen. These prices should scream worthy competition is coming. Below the 3090 anyway.
