Underclock the RAM to stock 3070 speeds and see how it compares, the 3070Ti seems like an even bigger waste of time than the 3080Ti vs the 3080...
Same performance as a stock 3070 more or less but higher power consumption. No thanks!!
It is getting to the point where I am not even interested in video card reviews, because you can't actually buy them. I get that this is a hardware review site and you need to review these cards, but it all seems kind of pointless until enough GPUs can be produced to where scalping isn't profitable.
This is getting really tired now.Quote:

Howelse can you say its decent compared to FE if both happen to come in stock and the MSRP or whatever is actually £300 more for MSI card.
Hard to review these cards but seems like another waste and at RRP not worth it compared to buying the 3070 or paying a little more again for the 3080.
It was either GN or Linus on one of his WAN shows that explained that basically MSRP completely screws the AIBs for margin, if they meet MSRP then they will be practically making no profit on the cards.Quote:

Nvidia did this before with Fermi. They could have eaten the cost,but instead expected the AIB partners to do it. Its why XFX who was only Nvidia,decided to move to making ATI/AMD GPUs.Quote:
