Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Reviews

It's a weird situation in the UK at the moment. Seems to be loads of really well priced stock of 3070Ti and below, then nothing at all in the 3080/3090 range. Then tons of 4080's at around MRSP, then no 4090's.

Looks like people can see it for the rip off it is.

UK prices are still all over the place, the 3060ti is still is best bang per buck Nvidia GPU in my opinion and possibly the best bang per buck GPU from AMD and Nvidia.

The 3070 (Non ti) just isn't worth the extra £100+ over it.

And the 3070ti price has come down but I still wouldn't pay over £600 for a GPU with only 8GB of VRAM.

nV got a very efficient architecture manufactured on a subpar Samsung process with the 3000-series. With the 4000-series they jumped to the cutting-edge TSMC process which is even better than AMD's. AMD also switched to a better node but apparently pulled a Vega.

3080 on 10 nm has the same efficiency as a 6800 xt on 7nm.. that shows nvidia has a advanced and efficient architecture
 
Sales charts are by price volume, not units. With so little GPU sales at the moment it's not much of a surprise that the very expensive Ada cards are highest selling.
 

Unsurprising and many people are noticing just how horrible the 4080 is (naming and all) and how the pricing just makes it even more ridiculously horrible.

They think that maybe NV will come to their senses around CES and drop prices a lot.

There’s definitely a market for graphics cards over $1000 but that market isn’t really willing to settle for second best.

As long as it sells there is no need to drop the price.

The fact is, there is apparently a large number of customers who value their PC gaming experience pretty high. This means these ppl casually spend $1k on a current gen high-end GPU and that's it. They are not bothered with perf/$, historical price trends, manufacturing cost, etc.

The issue for the 4080 is that market demographic greatly prefers the 4090, as it's both truly halo and better value. The only disadvantage for the 4090 at the moment is relative stock/availability for those buyers.
