RTX 4070 Super launch day sales are rumored to be a ‘disaster’ – what’s going on with Nvidia’s new GPU? in c/technology@lemmy.world

Launch msrp for a HD7850, which was the same category as the 6700XT today (upper middle tier) was 250 usd.

There's much more effort involved to produce modern GPU now. Either way, if NVidia would be truly greedy, they'd close gaming gpu business right away and would produce only AI accelerators. You can take same 4070, add $200 worth of GDDR chips to the layout and sell this for $15k minimum, shit would be on backorder.

why not? it's not like there is any competition.
Microsoft is making more money off Linux with Azure than several red hats combined.
