Finally getting some (closer to) mainstream video cards from AMD. Still feels overpriced but a lot better than $750 for a 7900xt.
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Still unreasonably expensive. These cards should be at least $150 cheaper.
Then don’t buy it, they keep the price because people keep buying over priced GPUs.
The good thing is, older AMD cards tend to drop in value a lot more compared to nVidia. So now that these cards have been announced, expect a decent price drop in the near future for m the 6000 series cards (which are still pretty good, especially if you consider the price/performance ratio vs nVidia).
