I don't see people that spent $2-3K on a gaming PC wanting to rush out and buy a $600 console just to play a couple games. If anything it'll create resentment towards Sony for pulling this nonsense.

I agree. I think it's a good value at the $549 MSRP. The OC cards at $580-590 become less of a value. Might as well spend the extra $20-40 for the full blown 9070.

Must be a EU thing as the 9070 is more expensive here in the US

Nothing wrong with the 5700X3D either. Still a beast. I gave mine to my nephew. With a 4070 Ti Super it rocks any game quite well.

Nothing wrong with the 5800X3D yesterday, today or tomorrow. It still holds its own amongst the top contenders.

It trades blows with the 5070, according to J2C's charts. Could argue the 5070 will have better RT performance and definitely a better encoder.

They make water blocks for reference PCB's. Most of the low cost 5080's and 5090's are based on reference board design.

it's slightly slower than a 9070 with less VRAM.

Know what I want? An aftermarket AIO for my GPU. Why no one makes them I don't understand. Like if someone has a 5080 or 5090 (reference PCB) and just wants to add an AIO to it you'd think that would be an option.

I have like 600 hours in to FH5. Just haven't had the itch so I'll wait till I do.

I could see a use if I had a TV outside in direct sunlight. Maybe bars and outdoor venues.

Sounds like they are using binned silicon that didn't meet 9060XT specs due to the drastically lower clock speeds. And a 128 bit memory bus. Doubtful these will come anywhere near close to 9060XT performance, even if flashed.

My HiSense U8 has 5000 peak brightness and it's too bright in some situations. Can't imagine 11,000 nits.

I couldn't care less about CoD anymore. They need to fix the hacking / cronus zen issue.
