    Aside from the disastrous pricing, 4070 (AKA: 4080 12gb), the news that to use a 4090 SAFELY, you should also buy an ATX 3.0 psu which is currently available NOWHERE. That burns.

    Nvidia is definitely smoking something with those prices! I can only hope that the 40 series does terrible and their profits take a big dump forcing Nvidia to lower their prices and correct their mislabling of the 12gb 4080 (4070 in disguise). Hopefully AMD takes advantage of this opportuniy becasue this could give AMD the chance it needs to take a big chunk of the gpu market and get ahead, just like they did with ryzen cpus. I'm sure there will be some price increase with AMD cards as well but hopefully it will be more realistic/reasonable price increase. I knew when Jensen started talking to himself (aka virtual Jensen) that he'd lost all sense of reality. Also, the investor meeting that leaked, and how he was talking about maniplulating the market, really says a lot about how Nvidia works. You know all companies do the same thing but when you actully hear people at the top talk about it, it really sinks in how companies could care less about the consumer. Its all about the profit.

      I think that they won't rename the downgraded 4080, but will produce a clearly inferior 4070 instead. Most likely with reduced Vram in order to try and save face on this. It's funny how they have so clearly been busted on their shady maneuver.

      Even more pathetic is that the supposed 4080 12GB has the specs of a 60 series card. The 4080 16GB should have been the 4070 and the 4090 should be the 4080 leaving room for a titan like product at the top. Unfortunately we all got duped by nvidia's deceptive naming conventions.

    10:53 I had no idea Molex connectors (also) had so few connection cycles to them. They've always been a pretty junky connector type but haven't had a serious issue with them. I feel like there should be a shift to higher quality longer lasting connectors because PSUs are meant, or at least expected, to last for multiple system builds. 🤔 I have seen some PSUs that generally feel higher quality with their connectors and how they attach, but not sure if rated cycles would change in that case.

They're also somewhere in the range of 15-18% of the market share compared to Nvidia, so price to performance is one easy way to gain market share. Will they be demonstrably cheaper?

    With regards to the 30 connections limit on the 12+4 power connector, is that a limit on the male part of the connector, the female part, or both? I.e. what happens if one is brand new and the other very old? Because if it's the male connector, that's relatively cheap to replace wheras the female part is directly soldered onto the card so very difficult to replace.
