for all your talk you really should be selling prebuilds under lukes prices my friend
We eagerly await your next post.
@smartazz104: Nah, I'm keeping myself clean. I've already posted, through a comment, the lowest Intel 255H laptop deal and the lowest 258v laptop deal.
absolutely I would love to know when I am overpaying, but if you aren't posting a link to show it then what you are posting is little more than horse shit.
@gromit: Haha okay. Even though I've been proven right throughout. I guess that's why you didn't comment on the recent 9800X3D deal huh.
Proof or you're a liar.
- I expect ~750
On what basis are you "expecting" this?
Recent pre-built pricing suggests $800-$830 is the new norm.
Are you calling marshmall0w2 a liar, then?
@DiscountForThee: No, I'm suggesting they're correct that you can expect deeper deals soon, in this case if it had made it to the Shopback flash sale the net price with 2.5% off gift cards would have been about $775.
you can expect deeper deals
You pretty much say this at any point, ever. They've given a number for what they're "expecting". Not "hoping it will reach at some point in the future"
It's just stupid to comment on every ATL post saying that the price may go down in the future, because that's nearly a given. If someone posts numbers as an expectation, it should be backed by facts
Not "hoping it will reach at some point in the future"
DiscountForNone moment. All my prices are targets to be reached.
All my prices are targets to be reached.
When, and based on what? This feels like the part which is vital to any deal expectations, but what you continually fail to provide
@DiscountForThee: We're talking about $25 here, and this is the start of the annual cycle where we see electronics pricing tend to go down. I don't see any issue with NVIDIA's production volumes on TSMC 4nm going forward, and there's plenty of people screaming about 12GB for 1440p based on mediocre analysis.
Do you think it won't start to trend downwards?
I expect ~$20…
Better value than any RX 9070 non-XT at the moment. Lowest price for an RX 9070 is $977: https://www.pgrid.app/au/gpus/radeon-rx-9070
Yeah at 977 the non XT model makes zero sense when the cheapest XT is currently 1049.. I'd highly consider a ~900 dollar 9070 though!
$900 for 9070 shouldn't be your target. Lower it to around $780
Why stop there? Why not lower your target to $500?
@marshmall0w2: Serious question, why stop at $780? Where did you get this number? Provide links my boy
@DiscountForThee: Then serious answer would be just historical generational card sales. Nah, I link when I want to. You can be sincere and DYOR.
historical generational card sales
This should be easy to provide a link, then?
DYOR
We did, and none of the sales are coming close to this number, which is why we ask for your links. If you don't provide proof you'll be continually called a liar and you should be embarrassed
continually called a liar and you should be embarrassed
The slowing neg trend on my comments is showing anything but
@marshmall0w2: No, people are just hitting their daily limit. I'd save my last one just in case, on the rare occasion, someone says something more stupid than you do. (It's rare, though)
@DiscountForThee: Haha okay
We did, and none of the sales are coming close to this number
So what number is your research showing?
@marshmall0w2: $977 as about the cheapest price it has ever been in Aus. And you're suggesting to set the target 20% lower than this?
@DiscountForThee: Lol when the 9070 XT is just $100 above this?
Also I said
Then serious answer would be just historical generational card sales.
Check previous gen sales and compare how low they can go.
Probably not as appealing as the new ATL for 9070XT.
5070 has more performance per dollar out of the box just on raster, but if you factor in DLSS4 vs FSR4 and increasing clocks without massively spiking power consumption, the 5070 goes further again.
Outside of raster performance, you wind up paying $60-$70 for the for the extra 4GB alone. Path tracing sees AMD grind to a halt in most instances, and that's what you should be looking at in any 12GB+ card.
Then there's 4x frame gen for slower games…
ok jensen
Imagine wanting to pay $600+ for a GPU and being able to play with all the graphics features enabled 4 years into the future.
Outrageous, I know.
RDNA4 still has you making significant trade-offs within the normal lifespan of a GPU.
We still have to agree here, 12GB on a 800+ dollar card (really, 1k+ at launch), is pretty scummy in 2025. It's basically forcing you to choose between this and a model above it for significantly more price to ensure longevity. If I was still at 2560x1440 I'd probably have jumped at this card around this price but at 3440x1440 12gb might be fine now, but I change GPUs once every ~5-6 years generally. I think 16GB is somewhat of a requirement for me unfortunately.
If the 5070 Super arrives with 16GB, though, and slots in nicely price wise, I would certainly consider it, on the assumption I haven't jumped ship by then (waiting for a sub 1k 9070xt potentially). On a 3060 Ti 8GB atm. Getting VRAM warnings (Doom DA, BF6 beta) already since bumping to ultrawide (multipurpose desk, ultrawide is soooo nice for work!)
@ReaperX22: The incoming compression techniques render this argument null and void up until about 4K path tracing, and that may also be of no concern. Everything wobbled about by redditors and borderline-crank youtubers are edge cases, and there are ways to make basic optimisations around most of those that have virtually no visual impact.
Not remotely concerned about 3440x1440. This card has about the same growth in basic performance per dollar over the 2060 as an index fund, so it's not the worst investment to be made out there.

Sooooo buy based on future promises? Isn't this the polar opposite of what we've been told to do recently? Don't buy on assumed/promised future features, buy on today's actual features..
I'm pretty sure the RTX 5070 already failed Indiana Jones PT tests due to the lack of VRAM… Not even at 4k. (Saw you updated your post, adding in a comment before you lump me in with redditors. That's not the point… The point is, why, when VRAM generally isn't that expensive, limit the cards artificially? It's just marketing BS and that's all it is)
I've had Nvidia for years, and AMD for years before that. I'm not brand biased, but kinda sounds like you are.
12GB in a 1k+ RRP card in 2025 is awful. Period

The SDKs are in the wild, it's down to game developers to train the simple models on their textures and assets, which saves them money on server costs for downloads and patches, while also opening up better downloadable methods in-game for live service games.
It's such a significant win for them when they are already accumulating this hardware that it will move into production as quickly as possible. When NVIDIA's 590 driver release hits (preview driver exists), this will have full support ready to go.
If the 5070 Super arrives with 16GB
If the bus width remains the same, it will be 18 GB. If the bus width is decreased slightly, it will be 15 GB. I doubt they are going to give you a 5070 Super on a 256-bit bus. You should probably learn more about what you're discussing before telling me how the world should work for you.

And yet it works fine on Doom the Dark Ages. Same engine, better devs, better asset selection for their current workflow. The Indy dev team fell behind with what they planned to implement to improve foliage lighting performance.

Lol wow. You just… Kinda contradicted yourself here, no? 'You should probably learn more about…' but you just said yourself
'IF the bus width remains the same'. 'I doubt they're going to give you a 5070 Super on a 256-bit bus'.
So basically your entire argument is based on speculation and 'IT'S COMING IN FUTURE'. But you're… Coming at me for …speculating? Lol.
Your bias is showing, friend.
@ReaperX22: The 5070 uses a GB205 chip, which roughly saturates a 192-bit bus. VRAM chips are 32-bit wide, so a 192-bit bus will allow for 6 chips. Previously, you could get them in 1, 2 & 4 GB variations, so 12GB was selected. Now, you can get 3GB versions, but they have proven to not be economically suitable while production is scaling.
So when they do become affordable, they go from 6x 2GB, to 6x 3GB with at least the same memory speed (thus the same memory bandwidth), or 5x 3GB with perhaps the need for slightly faster speed (to maintain the same memory bandwidth, but there doesn't seem to be a bandwidth saturation issue in path traced Indiana Jones for the 16GB 5060 Ti).
How am I contradicting myself exactly?
Shows AU $822.17 after APAY15 & AUSGAMER7 for me, am I doing something wrong?
Centrecom have caught onto the APAY15 code bundling with AUSGAMER7 and have been adjusting their pricing across ebay. The margin on this card probably isn't as great as some other items but it may account for your slight difference.
Card comes with free Jensen frames, a good buy.
"I have 12GB at home" (4070)
AUSGAMER7 code isn't working for me?
Shouldn't this card be like $550? https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/571683
Shouldn't smiths chips be $2 a pack on special?
How come a 75" TV is cheaper today than it was in 2020?
Depends on the quality of the TV. Same quality? Should be cheaper. OLED? No chance, still not really economical for most people. Mini-LED? Still in that mid-range pricing of $1300-$2500 as a starting point.
The 5070 is over twice as fast as the 2070 Super, stretches a little further due to how it handles DLSS' Transformer model and slow stock clocks, then has frame-gen for slower paced games, and way better path tracing performance that will scale out again over time along with other neural rendering features that the 20 series will struggle with using one at a time, let alone all of them.
It also cost 3 times as much to make and NVIDIA has about 2.5 times as many staff these days. Overall they've done ok to keep costs under control, but this is the 2nd generation on virtually the same node. Feel free to wait for the 60 series on 3nm, which should represent about an 80% jump in transistor density (think 30 series vs 40 series).
My comment is a simple analysis on the state of reality not on your subjective evaluations. I am simply pointing out your original comment is pretty fkn insane bro. If this card should be $550 it would be. Saying an older version of the card which really isn't super related to current tech and doesnt account for inflation is lowkey insane talk.
