Less performance that a 4070 for more than a 4080, that is Nvidia
Not sure why you would compare it with a 3090Ti tech should get better and cheaper. Not better and more expensive else it is not progress.
I will never understand you nerds of the world. You seem to keep wanting the pinnacle of computing/gaming technology (as if you upgrade ever year to the latest and greatest) then get upset when their price increases.
For example, bmw m3, let's say in 1990 it was what I could afford at £30k then in 2023 it's now £80k. If I'm too awful at my job that I am still getting paid in 2023 what I was in 1990, should I complain that I can no longer afford the latest and greatest? What if my wages increase and the car is still out of my price range, then the way I look at it is I was spoilt during those years I had my m3, c'est la vie.
I'm different to you lot, I can afford the latest and greatest pc but I'm not a massive nerd, in that I don't feel the need to upgrade every time a newer thing comes out. As it is I'm happy with my 3090ti and could afford a 4090. Now I know the jump this time is huge (like the price 🤔) but I'll keep running my 3090 until the 50 or 60 series comes out and then I'll run that for a few years before I think of an overhaul to my entire rig.
..... Or maybe I'm wrong. Maybe the lay abouts of the world should have m3's and 4090's and I'm the idiot for working my ass off 🤷🏻♂️
