      Yeah this is a absolute trash way to review something. LTT has shown that they don't care about their reviews. Their reviews are so sloppy compared to other tech channels. Simply editing in a 1 second prerecorded face reaction to the price is not good enough. If Nvidia had come in with the 3080Ti at $1400, would this review have been the same? What if they came in a $800? Price is extremely important.

      @tooitchy 3 года назад +8

      Nvidia changed the msrp from 1000$ to 1200$ immediately prior to release, reviewers were under the impression it was going to be $1000.
      Either way, people need to stop whining about price, GPU's have been selling, a lot, at over double their MSRP, complain about scalpers all you want, but manufacturers have raised their prices significantly, and they're still getting scooped up and resold at huge markups, meaning MSRP is nowhere close to fair for these cards. Does it suck? Fuck yes, but that's literally how the market works, it's supply and demand. Demand exceeds supply, significantly, therefore the ONLY solution to the disparity is to raise the price to find equilibrium. 1200$ for the 3080ti sounds absurd, but if you look at the market, it's being scalped for significantly lower markup than the rest of the lineup, meaning it is not selling at as high of a markup, MEANING the 1200$ price is far, far closer to "correct" for the market conditions, than the 3080, and 3090.

      Linus put too much money into his business and created a media company, and now he needs revenue stream from a dying platform that he relies on. So he hires people that can generate clicks and tiktok trash videos to make his revenue of clout cash and keep the lights on. Instead of downsizing and reassessing his income, he doubles-down on the garbage content that relies on 9-13 year olds to click, like, sub, and buy merch. Which is exactly how we got into this mess of unethical shitty social media platforms that bank on halfwits to buy into lies and spend their money on overpriced crap. Welcome to 2021. Go sub GN and unsub LTT (and all their affiliates).

Now nvidia is also manufacturing the new CMP series and they are not going to reduce the production of any of the 3000 series already in production probably. And 1G vram chips are much more easy to acquire. Its just 2GB more vRAM than a 3080. The 3080Ti is not a performance slouch, its great, but at what cost??

      Bruh you shouldn't watch a review for the trust value though. Reviews have 2 main things, data and opinions (interpretation of data). If the data is correct it should be verifiable with other reviewers, and the interpretation of it you should be able to see if they are consistent, have flaws or if it's illogical. You can even ignore their opinions fully since you can do the thinking for yourself if the data is provided.
      Trust in this context is irrelevant and unnecessary. If they release a product however... I'd probably perceive it with a negative bias since they've lost touch of their target audience.

      Yeah its a money grab.
      It isn't necessarly bad in the current climate. That depends, among others, on how NVIDIA handles it, whether it diverts more 3090s to it or more 3080s. And to be honest I don't at all trust Nvidias claims here, the fact that they're asking 1200$ for this card and have the balls to claim it's primarily to help gamers and not to increase their cut of the current market all but proves their motivation and likely strategy.
      It is, however, any way you put it, desastrous for the market after the current situation.
      Because the 3090 already saw Nvidia massively increase their profit span, without the 3090 having many of the traditional advantages of the Titans.
      The 3080Ti costs Nvidia almost the same to make as the 3080, but the consumer costs are far closer to the 3090. And that's not just Scalper prices, but Nvidia MSRP. Which means it'll continue to be a thing after the current situation, they obviously don't aim to reduce pricing after the current situation stops.
      If Nvidia were only trying to increase their cut in the current climate (which I'm actually somewhat okay with), they'd not increase their MSRP but they'd just hike the price they're selling the cards to their partners for.

    I think he made a fair point, people are being too critical about him. Here' my hottake:
    1. Just because something is named "Ti", it doesnt mean that it has to reflect the pricing that it should be in. Products naming scheme changes and so will the prices, and we know Nvidia nor AMD NOR Intel is the best at naming schemes.
    2. This is essentially a 3090-lite, give or take like within a 3% margin in terms of specs sheet on paper. You're telling me that you can get a 3090 that is priced cheaper than a 3090? That is a heck of a deal, granted, if we are talking about MSRP, WHICH NOTHING is being sold at RIGHT NOW!
    So if you can snatch this baby up AT MSRP, and you have the means to do so, then this is a great deal, but does that mean everyone needs to have one? HECK NO! This is not made for the "average" consumer, especially if you're a gamer!
    Trust me, GPUs can do A LOT of things on top of just video editing/streaming or gaming, gaming is just the tip of the iceberg of what GPUs can do, not to even mention mining crypto.
    If you're running low on VRAM on the lower end products, and you HAVE to get this so you can bump those texture settings up, then I have bad news for you mate, get angry at Nvidia, not the reviewers, it is Nvidia's fault for still sticking by such low amount of RAM capacity.

    "no brainer at msrp" this card costs literally 1200$. Nearly twice as much as an rtx 3080 and 200$ more than the 6900xt. This is beyond scamming. I can find a 6900xt on the used market for 1300.

The 2080Ti was a 30% performance increase over the 2080 for 70%. This MSRP is a 72% increase for an 8% gain (Only makes a difference at 4k anyways.)
      10 Sereis > 30% = 40% Price increase
      20 series > 15% = 70% Price increase.
      30 series > 8% = 72% Price increase.
      They simply want more money and it's a shameless move for them to make. It is bad value and not a good product, and should never be bought.
      The 2080Ti was already known as being bad value, so a card that's even worse would, understandably, be even worse value.
      EDIT: I'd just like to clarify that the shortage doesn't really affect NVIDIA negatively, only from a PR standpoint. From a business standpoint, it gives them more money than they actually should receive because of demand not being able to be met. So that point is kinda invalid also.
