Rumor: GeForce RTX 3090 Pricing to Arrive Around the $2,000 Mark

[Bones]

Have to admit that "Price" is insane.

I know ATM it's just a rumor and we have to remember at this point it's just that, nothing else but I can already say I woudn't buy one. Back when I bought the 2 cards I have now (Radeon VII) I simply coudn't justify spending at least if not more than double the price for a card that would only beat the cheaper ones I got by a few measily percentage points at most and that was with things I probrably woudn't have noticed the difference anyway.
Grabbed two for about the same or slightly cheaper than a 2080 in the end so I have one that's in use and the other as a back up.

So....
If the card and price is worth it to you and your useage, of course you can get one but if not I'd find something different like I did.

Just bear in mind the actual price of these isn't set just yet and also remember you still have the power of the wallet to cast your "Vote" if you don't like the pricing - I cast mine back when I bought the two cards I've got at least and TBH I don't see the need to replace these anytime soon.

its a RUMOR yet everyone looses their minds ...

And loses?
My mind is loose enough.

 

[RobJoy]

As usual every release, this is a "sample pricing" leak, so Nvidia and manufacturers see how OK the pricing lies with the people.
If it is generally accepted, the cards will be released using this price.
If there is an outcry, the prices will be lowered a bit.

 

[AsRock]

In current climate even $1000 is too much for GPU now if the rumoured $2000 is correct then just forget about it.

Yeah made me look at your avatar

They can

I love threads like this, it's mentioned in the title all that its a RUMOR yet everyone looses their minds (I'm sure there's a meme for that one)... Why not just chill relax and wait for the cards to come out?? If it does cost $2000/£2000 for a card so be it, just don't buy it You don't have to do you?

You probably don't understand how forums work.
The whole fun is about rumors where everyone can be right or wrong. When 3090 comes out, there will be no fun. Opinions would be mostly based on real facts, meaning that most wil have the same or very similar opinions. There is no fun in that

 

[Melvis]

So almost the cost of a new car here in Australia? right......

Only for the rich and dumb

 

[The Quim Reaper]

Does it really matter?

The 3090 will only make up about 3% of Nvidia's entire Ampere GPU sales in terms of units sold but considerably more in profit margin, and for those willing to spend $2k on a GPU, we have to accept the fact that $2k is nothing to them, chump change, beer money.

Nvidia simply want to fleece them for as much as possible.

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

Unless the ARM sale goes through..........

Then another, then another, then another..........

Looking like it's Onnnn, damn

I’m confused as to how this continues to occur with every product launch? Do you all have no memory, or am I just the only one that pays attention enough to notice that every time a new product is close to launch, someone discovers an alleged price from a foreign retailer and attempts to convert to USD.
News flash: the price you see mentioned in this news post is listed in Chinese Yuan. Anyone care to guess what 2080 Ti cards sell for in China? If you guessed the price listed in this news post you’re the winner!

Genius, now I know this I'm sorted.
Soo just to check I have it.

When a new part is due people speculate and create rumours.

Is this a new thing, I like it.

 

[SIGSEGV]

wow. if it's true then the price is beyond my comprehension.
It's very ok NVIDIA, bring it on.. LMAO.

I do love these sorts of threads, it's full of funny first world problems.

Do I buy myself a car or a halo graphics card? Damn you Nvidia!!!1

I yearn to see some Mitx builds with 2x 3090 single slots WC + 11900K sli in under 10liter case, 400+400+400 watt water cooled system, 1,2kw tight fit. Yeah.

 

[Mindweaver]

They probably have 10 cards to sell at launch and it will be out of stock in .000001 seconds. lol IF this is true.. haha I just hope I can afford a 3060 6-8gb card.. or my 2070 holds out until 4000 series cards. Trust me when I do upgrade it will have a life cycle of around 6 months.. lol That's what happened with my 2070 before the Supers came out... or what it felt like...

 

[mouacyk]

It's probably a good idea to react to a price rumor, otherwise Jensen will have no idea what to throw out at the live announcement? Gotta help the man out a little. Blizzard already had an awkward moment; we can't afford to have the now biggest tech giant CEO go on stage and announce a LOW LOW price of $3000 for the very best in gaming graphics.

 

[Metroid]

It seems Nvidia is backing down on that $2k price, now they say $1399, still high though. If that is true then I almost got it right, I said $1299,

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Surfaces on Userbenchmark, Rocks 19Gbps Memory Clock

NVIDIA's second fastest "Ampere" graphics card to launch this year, the GeForce RTX 3080, surfaced on the Userbenchmark database. Hardware Leaks (aka @_rogame) fished out several juicy details about the card that will be positioned right below the flagship RTX 3090 (RTX 2080 Ti successor) that's...

$1399 will match the Chinese pricing, the 2080Ti was12K~13K at launch in chinese market. shits like this should stop using direct conversion. the whole english tech news circle go crazy on the 14K pricing is driving me nuts

 

[InhaleOblivion]

Looks at my 5700XT in my current setup. Yeah, I'm good. That's a no for me dog.

No one is right about anything yet.

My mind was loose and I've corrected my English...

I know how the forums work but 8 pages of 'opinions' on something that wasn't even concrete seems a little crazy to me... But hey, it's just me!

 

[Fluffmeister]

The mob need no excuse to go on a rampage, hopefully they get offended by real issues too.

Yeah made me look at your avatar

They can

Also, I got into a super exciting convo with a mod who said my flipping the bird avatar wasn't acceptable.

How times change.

 

[Reverb256]

Well... I'll just consider a 3090 to be a TITAN equivalent, then.
Priceerformance ratio blowout (in a bad way).

 

[ZoneDymo]

The funny thing is, if its true we will be prepared, but lets say its "only" 1680 dollars, then we should be relieved right? and Nvidia will looks like the goodguy again....

Its like a reverse thing fanboys did/do to AMD where they hype up upcomming products to rediculous levels just so when its released it can only be a dissapointment and they can crap all over it when objectively it can be a very good product.

 

[Hemmingstamp]

'opinions' on something that wasn't even concrete seems a little crazy to me...

Oh I dunno, I think the topic should get at least 7/10 for entertainment value. After all many have had a good laugh at the rumoured prices at least. (Some cried)

 

[okbuddy]

just $2000 you got 24gb vram, that's a steal

 

[medi01]

The 3090 will only make up about 3% of Nvidia's entire Ampere GPU sales in terms of units sold

2080Ti is under 1%, why would 3090 more than triple it?

 

[Wshlist]

Performance is going forward. Engineering and technology is being pushed to the max. Besides the price I really don't know what to complain about. Maybe you should apply to be Nvidia engineer and let us see what you come up with?

Or in other words: It's so expensive because they need to pay the engineers so those are able to afford a nvidia card. It's the new 'nvidia-personnel-only edition'. then.
