At least the 7900 XTX is launching with the same MSRP as the 6900 XT did. When was the last time we saw that from Nvidia?We will definitely see those who bouth 7900xxx at 1000+$ with the utmost conviniance thay made justice by supporting the "under-dog" and srike retaliation vs NV greddy practice. But AMD is no under-dog, it is (still) just a smaller NV who exploit the market that takes them as the 'budget option'.
AMD will sit quietly from the side, with a big smile, and will keep on riding NV`s wave of upping the cost gen to gen while enjoying the "robin-hood' image that rage blinded, NV haters, poorly informs and easy to manipulate consumers entitled them.
The absurdness will skyrocket to new levels once again, like wattage consumption, GPU`s physical volume size, cost and diminishing returns.
Edit: Also, at least we see some innovation from AMD (chiplets, reworked core structure, etc.). How consumers benefit is a different question, but at least we see where their money goes. The last time Nvidia innovated was when they introduced Tensor and RT cores with Turing. Ever since then, it's price increase after price increase for the same tech on a shrunk node.
