Have these AIB GPU makers lost their minds? Why are xx60 and xx70 series card triple slot and triple fan designs? These are supposed to be low to mid range cards. FFS make them no more than 1.5 slot dual fan designs.

3060 Ti is actually a big chip being a 104 class. It has more CUDA cores than a 2080Ti. That the 3070 and 3070 Ti have even more is kind of crazy.

One of the reasons the 4080 12GB was so out of place. It is the same class of chip as the 3060-3070Ti. Whereas in the 20 series, mid-range through the 2070 was only a 106 class chip.

A giant $450 tripple fan GPU is not "mainstream".

Look at what the average PC user is running on Steam. If you think this will become a "mainstream" card, you are out of touch.

Facebook is not the last tech company that is going to get a rude awakening very soon.

6700 XT is a far better deal IMO.

Three of them under $400 on Amazon right now just doing a quick search (probably more than 3 if I looked hard). If willing to wait deals pop up periodically. I got mine for $330 this past week.
