Well... apparently, the new RTX 4000 series will have a reduction of almost 30% TDP. Even when the new GPUs are slated to use a 16-pin connector.

https://www.tomshardware.com/news/40...-rtx-4080-4070


New estimates

RTX 4080 320W 29% Reduction


RTX 4070 285W 5% Reduction

I know, that 3090ti is looking quite handsome right now.

EVGA slashed $1000 of their 3090ti flagship card. So it’s about $1300, which is about $200 more than what the 3090 started out 2 years ago. Getting that 3090ti, would be absolutely insane performance wise. Pair ir with a 5800X3D and its a wrap.

But apparently "informed sources" (that I really don't trust but a rumor's a rumor) say that the 4080 will the 3090ti benchmarks. If that's the case, it would be better to wait a few months for the better price/performance, assuming the 4080 comes in under $1k

It's all still overpriced. And Nvidia seems up to their old games in other ways. Really weird stuff. Still not interested.

I've been thinking about an RX6800XT a lot recently. ASUS RX6800XT TUF is selling for $950 which is the lowest price I've seen for any RX6800XT.

Is possible that it could. It all depends on the future all digital currency has in store. It is possible the 4000 series might be a little overpriced on release with possibly some stock woes. But we'll see. I wouldn't mind waiting a few months to see the 3090ti drop in price even more and then snagging it. Switching to another generation GPU would require me to upgrade CPU generations, therefore MOBO an other components in order to get the most of it.

I think you can get a 6900XT for about the same price which is slightly faster, it is a powerhouse. Just toasty.
