NVIDIA GeForce RTX Series Prices Up To 71% Higher Than Previous Gen
NVIDIA revealed the SEP prices of its GeForce RTX 20-series, and it's a bloodbath in the absence of competition from AMD. The SEP price is the lowest price you'll be able to find a custom-design card at. NVIDIA is pricing its reference design cards, dubbed "Founders Edition," at a premium of 10-15 percent. These cards don't just have a better (looking) cooler, but also slightly higher clock speeds.
The GeForce RTX 2070 is where the lineup begins, for now. This card has an SEP pricing of USD $499. Its Founders Edition variant is priced at $599, or a staggering 20% premium. You'll recall that the previous-generation GTX 1070 launched at $379, with its Founders Edition at $449. The GeForce RTX 2080, which is the posterboy of this series, starts at $699, with its Founders Edition card at $799. The GTX 1080 launched at $599, with $699 for the Founders Edition. Leading the pack is the RTX 2080 Ti, launched at $999, with its Founders Edition variant at $1,199. The GTX 1080 Ti launched at $699, for the Founders Edition no less.

We all know Titan V is expensive too, but that doesn't stop people buying...... four of them :eek::

Lots of comments, right away, about how wonderfully affordable they are
Looks to see if Mr. Serling is standing nearby.MS and Sony have these things they call consoles to sell you. They have terrible CPUs that would never have made the slightest dent in the market without having been propped up by this duopoly and the added bonus of causing consumers and developers to buy/release 3 different versions of the same game for the same x86 hardware platform. MS and Sony would like to tell you that you're very fortunate to be able to not buy into a single x86 hardware platform with a single software layer (Vulkan and OpenGL on Linux) — and also that you can, indeed, get AMD gpus at much lower prices. They are very "competitive". If they weren't, wouldn't we have so many other "consoles" to choose from?
one of my etailer listed some 2080 and 2080Ti ... i was right ...
2080: 900$+
2080Ti: 1400$+
this is ridiculous ...
edit ... and for the laugh : stock isn't 0 for the 2080Ti but -22 ... wild guess... "miner" :laugh: (if it is ... they should wait the bench before ravaging the stock and pushing the price even higher for the others )
one step closer for a Vega 64, the less ruinous option i have to upgrade from a 1070 :roll:
With tue USD hitting a new high here, and creating some fear, we can now see the 1080ti reaching USD2,250 (ARS 90,000) on some less honest vendors. imagine the price for the 2080ti then.
And Die Size Price is between 1080 and 1080TI...…. SO if RT and Tensorcores in not just Waste of Chip Space it could end up beeing a deasent to Good card. :D
Looking at that ridiculous price, with the $ keep increasing in my currency, i just bought a 2 month used RX 580 8GB for 220$ from a desperate miner :p
GPUs sells will die lol
