Title: KFA2 GeForce RTX 4080 SG desktop GPU review: Great performance meets questionable pricing
Post by: Redaktion on January 03, 2023, 14:26:46
Alongside the GeForce RTX 4090, Nvidia has released the GeForce RTX 4080, a slightly less expensive model based on the company's latest Ada Lovelace architecture. Nonetheless, manufacturers are asking more than €1,000 (US$1,070) for the second fastest graphics card from team green. We have now taken a closer look at an RTX 4080 model made by KFA2. In this review, you will find out where this card stands in terms of performance.

"too expensive"

The market decides this. The market obviously has chosen to pay, given the cards haven't dropped much, if at all, since release.

It sucks for your wallet, but objectively, it is priced just right, for now.

No. It is priced right only for those accepting the price. Foe everybody else not buying, it is too expensive. Besides, Nvidia's short-term greed "all people are miners" drives quite a few away from the market forever; this is not how to maximise long-term profit.
