"No no, look it's faster!"
*shows chart of bullshitted pixels per second*
So the nVidia claim that the 5070 would be on par with the 4090 is dead?
Yeah, that seems kinda obvious now, though I did live in hope for a while
That marketing claim relied on the 5070 generating 3 ai frames per 1 rendered frame. It was always a marketing lie.
No u see if you include the AI its actually twice as fast or some bullshit!
Why hello there diminishing returns.
What a let down.
With the massive price increases, the small technical jump, and me not playing enough video games that require high end graphics... I think this is the start of me jumping off the Graphics card treadmill.
At their price points, I rather buy a new Steam Deck and their future iterations every few years.
lol at these cards being such a huge waste.
No one needs this shit. If you’re shelling out this kind of money you’re either too dumb for your own good or you have more money than you know what to do with.
Did people think that this would be the case? The gap between the 4080 and the 4090 is huge. Basically all non xx90 cards are heavily lobotomized.
The 5080 will be half the card the 5090 is and the 5090 is 30% faster than the 4090. I expect the 5080 to land in the middle between 4080 and the 4090, maybe 25% faster than the 4080.
They claimed otherwise, that's why this is news.
They claimed ALL their 50 cards are about double the speed of their predecessors. The lie is that it’s AI generated intermediate frames…which if they were perfect wouldn’t be an issue, but they’re not perfect. Far from it at this moment.
