What does a 3080 cost in your country? In Germany incl. now 19% VAT, it has risen to €800 for a card one would not want (Gainward) or €880 for a reaonable card (Asus, two weeks waiting time). Initial paper MSRP was €699. The prices have always been unacceptable in Europe. Germany does not have a working used market for 3080, either.
The 3070 price was $499, US inflation from 2020 to 2022 was 15%, TSMC charges roughly $50 more so the price of 4070 should be $499 * 1,15 + $50 = $624.
The RTX 4070 is expected to launch in Q2 of this year. The rumor mill claims that the card will use the AD104-250/251 Lovelace GPU with 5,888 CUDA cores and 12 GB of GDDR6X VRAM. Hardware leaker RedGamingTech has now confirmed previously leaked specs and has revealed apparently real images of the RTX 4070 Founders Edition box.
