Unchanged MSRP means that Nvidia themselves are still making the same cut on sales as they did from the release. Only manufacturers and retailers could make the cut, but they want the designer to cut the price first. You can still find places which have 3080 in stock, only because they never lowered the prices.

unless nvidia does a payback to manufactures or direct to retailers to allow them to drop the price, they're still on the hook for the original whole sale price they bought the cards for. so unless they're willing to take the margin loss they can't really drop the price.

A neutered 80 class too. Made a whole seperate 103 die for the 80 card now yet we were getting more cores compared to the full die when they were using the 104 dies on them (the same ones the 70's use), nice. I think itd be more acceptable at $1000 if it was the 3080 vs 3090 margin between itself and the 4090, especially with a 320 bit bus and 20gb of vram. Thatd actually be fine imo.

Agree with you absolutely. This card, shouldn't have been more than 900, and in reality I would have been only comfortable with a price if it was closer to 800 or $750. Anybody telling me whoa the previous generation... The previous generation was overpriced. This generation has been insulting, usury, spit in your face level of insulting... After all, despite the technical achievements, this die is actually what a 70 class card would have had in previous generations

@@marcm. Really, 800 was already much more than inflation. So 800 is what it should have been. And that's with the RTX 4080 Super stats, not the original one. And looking at the previous generation, the RTX 3080 was 700. People always compare it to the 3090, which makes no sense because that should be compared to the 4090 in pricing. Which the 4090 is still more.

When super cards were announced I thought that 4080S was meant to dethrone 7900XTX from it's second place, considering how minimal the difference between the two is, surely there's almost no way to for them to fail, even after the red flag being the same amount of VRAM. And yet, nvidia somehow managed to fuck it up. XTX is an awesome card btw, can recommend.

Techpowerup only has it as 2% faster (at 4k) than the 4080 because they run a very large sample of games (over 100), but most of them are old. The more new titles you include in the average, the better it does, and the further it also pulls ahead of RDNA2.

Remember, BOM cost on the 4080 founders edition card was $300 a year ago when 4N was an advanced node. They are probably down to 250$, so they’re likely making the same profit margin on the silicon/memory cost, and that’s why they were willing to lower the price.

its really not a bad deal if you look at it this way, its the cheapest card on green team with 16gb of vram, you get most of the 4080 performance for 200 less...i personally think its funny how people are pissed off about that, everyone listened to the hype from leakers and youtubers about how the 4070ti super was going to be the cheaper 4080. Nvidia was never going to do that when they had problems selling the 4080 in the first place. you will never feel the difference between the 4080 and the 4070ti super in game unless you are watching the frame counter, also if you overclock its basically a 4080 minus 5-10 frames depending on the game. I started out with a 4080 when they launched and then sold it because i wanted to try a 7900xtx and its great, but between AMD and game developers i switched back to green team for the better drivers and bought myself the 4070ti super, i cant tell the difference between the 3 when gaming! i was also playing at 4k 120fps and just recently swapped for a 1440p 165hz, im telling you i cant tell the difference especially with dlss. its a great deal for the money compared to the 4080's, if people want the real performance they need to jump the 4090 and forget NVidia ever made the 4080.

@nossy232323 you mean 400? 4080 is 1200 and the 4080s you can buy today is 1000. the regular 4070ti exists, I did not need a 4080, its just what I picked at the time because sales were so bad that nvidia gave the go ahead and gave 15% off to bestbuy customers. So I got 120$ off the 1200 price. All I'm saying is you don't need to spend that kind of money for the higher frame rates, especially with dlss and frame gen. The 4070ti and super variant can get it done easily! Iv had a 4080, I also have a 7900xtx that I'm selling because drivers are much worse than nvidia and I just didn't want to spend 1k or more on a graphics card anymore, especially when I seen the 4070ti super giving 90% of a 4080 and 95% if you overclock the piss out of it.

It's normal that the lower you go in the product stack the better the "value" is. That's not what I was talking about here. I personally find it a bad deal since the price is still high and you are better of getting real next GPU's normally. I personally have a RTX 4090 which I bought about 1 year ago.

Then at the same time upgraded the 3900X to the 5800X 3D. I downgraded my gaming to 1080p from 1440p coz the M27Q panel started to flicker a lot. now using the VG252Q.

Buying for Nvidia features is like chasing the dragon. They're just gonna keep pushing to make you want to upgrade no matter what. The features that are important for going team green is the program stability and functionality, more so than RT still. I mean, having to still use upscaling and frame gen to get "playable" frame rates is still moronic, if Alan walk 2 is the direction things are going. In that case, just forget about modern gaming drivel.

I think it'll sell much more now. The (main) reason is it makes A LOT less sense to spend double the money for a 4090 now, when we're in the second half of the life-cycle for the current generation of graphic cards, than it made to spend 33% more for the same relative performance gain when these products were brand new. Thanks for your videos!

It won’t change anything; those who wanted a 4080 would of gotten one by now And those who waited will continue to wait for Blackwell; you are out of your mind to only buy into frame gen; the 4080 clearly has nothing going for it; no graphical improvement nor any stand out features besides frame power/wattage the thing barely has enough bandwidth for 4k with the same 16gb ram They knee cap the 80 series over and over and the 90 series is what you should of gotten if you were in that market; but it has been priced out hence why people are going amd Realistically do you want to have to wait to buy a gpu that took over a year to depreciate 17%? Poorly selling product that didn’t offer much to begin with besides being the next step down from 4090 is just bad consumerism

@@dvxAznxvb You say: "those who wanted a 4080 would of gotten one by now", "and those who waited will continue to wait for Blackwell" What about those who want to buy a graphic card now, who want to play at 4K now? They do exist, and the manufacturers are assembling and shipping cards today. I mean that your premise doesn't make much sense to me: we're speaking about sales in the current market, at the current prices. In the current conditions I think the 4080 (super) will sell much better now than it would have otherwise (which doesn't necessarily mean it'll sell that well, btw, since it did so poorly up to now). That said, nothing comes in my pocket from all of this, so I'm completely fine in keeping my opinion based on my reasoning, while you keep your opinion based on your reasoning. I'd just kindly ask for you and everybody else to refrain from direct answers to other people's comments that are phrased around things like "you are out of your mind". Thanks for your valid opinion, nonetheless.

@@Dempig As stated in the video, 4080 has good upscaling. You play at 4K with dlss, when needed. Only if you want high quality ray tracing, only in a very limited number of games you might have to go 1440p to get stable 60fps or more.

@HWUB Hallo there. I have a question that I ask myself since the release of the 4080. Why is the 4090 actually so slow? It has 60% more cuda cores and a >40% higher powerlimit, but is only 35% faster in 4k. It has even less of an uplift from the 4080 in 1440p. Did the 4090 hit some other form of bottleneck, like VRAM bandwidth or PCIe bandwidth? Will the RTX50x0 (5090) with possibly even more cuda cores show an even bigger bottleneck of some kind? Or is there possibly some kind of driver limitation actually holding the 4090 back?

Here's the real Question everyone should ask themselves : If there's a 4070 Ti Super for 800$ that's on an AD103 and has roughly (give or take) the same specs from an manufacturing perspective like the OG 4080, why did the 4080 did cost 1200$ in the first place? Or, a different take : why does the 4080 Pooper still comes at 1000$? Nothing adds up here.

The fact that the Super variant is retailing for around $2k in Australia, I'm glad I just bought the standard 4080 recently since the performance difference was so minimal. Not to mention, some of the lower priced 4080 cards are close to the price of the 4070ti Super, so it was good enough for me to get that instead. (Hoping it'll fit in my PC where my 1080ti resides)

I bought a RTX 4080 Super on launch day 😬 The price is what grabbed me. It's not a great value at $1k and I say hold off for a sale if you can and still want one. I couldn't get myself to spend the $1.2k+ on the base 4080. Only a couple of the 4080 Super's were sold at the $999 MSRP. The other 4080 Super's were going for $1050, $1100 and higher. Thankfully, I got one for MSRP. I'm happy with the performance, but mixed feelings about the price I paid for it. The performance difference between the base 4080 and the 4080 Super is disappointing, but at this point it'd be weird to go for the non-Super card at or above the MSRP of the 4080 Super. For my case, I felt it was worth choosing the 4080 Super over the 4070 Ti Super.

Exactly what I expected lol. It was funny seeing people excited for this thinking it was going to be in-between the 4080 and 4090.. Even though the specs suggested a max around 5-6% performance increase as a best case scenario. What's even more funny is that the 4080 has been on sale for $1,499 here in Australia for 2 days and it still hasn't sold out....yet the super is going to be almost $400 more than this 😂😂😂 for basically the same performance. What is going on , it's also telling that even at $1500 the 4080 still wasn't selling well. Had it have been $1500 at launch it might of been a decent card, but now after all this time it's not worth it. Too little too late, the super needs to drop to that price and the 4080 $1300 imo

As someone who just sold his 4090 and went to a 7900XTX. Don't sleep on AMD. I know team green does a lot of marketing to brainwash buyers into thinking they are superior, but that 7900XTX isn't that far behind the 4090, at half the price. AMD just released driver level frame gen for folks, too, it works well enough. I know, I know, RT and all that. It's not quite there yet. Half the games I turn it on with, crash with RT on - Watch Dogs Legion, Hogwarts, etc. Crashes more on nvidia than AMD it seems, but I haven't measured it. Maybe next gen. On and AMD power connectors don't melt, like my 4090's did.
