WEBVTT

00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:08.800
we did it Reddit NVIDIA was so embarrassed by the specs of the RTX 480

00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:16.480
12 gig that they unlaunched it and now in its place we've got the RTX 470 TI

00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:20.199
it's it's the same GPU but with a

00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:23.359
different name oh but it got a $100

00:00:20.199 --> 00:00:25.160
price drop which unfortunately isn't

00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:30.720
quite the double that you might think it is while theoretically there will be 47

00:00:28.279 --> 00:00:36.600
ETI for $700 there are no first party Founders

00:00:33.360 --> 00:00:39.320
edition cards meaning that that MSRP is

00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:44.120
really just that a manufacturers suggested retail price and later we're

00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:48.640
going to get into why no one really follows NVIDIA's suggestions anymore the

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:55.359
card that we were sent for review for example is lightly overclocked and costs

00:00:52.719 --> 00:01:00.440
$850 meaning that I kind of have to evaluate this as a 40802 gig with a name

00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:05.400
change and a 5.5%

00:01:02.120 --> 00:01:08.640
discount this thing better be

00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:11.040
amazing amazing like our sponsor Ridge

00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:15.400
wallet Ridge wallet has redefined the traditional wallet with its compact

00:01:12.720 --> 00:01:20.479
frame and RFID blocking plates keep your wallet bulge down and use our offer code

00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:23.479
Linus to save 10% and get free worldwide shipping

00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:39.439
right out of the gate the 4070 TI is in trouble with specs that I might have

00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:41.399
imagined on a 4070 or even a 4060 super

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:48.840
that puts its total bandwidth somewhere in between the RTX 3070 and 370 ti so

00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:54.320
its only chance is if its other specs can pick up the slack fortunately on

00:01:51.240 --> 00:01:56.920
paper the 470 TI's core performance

00:01:54.320 --> 00:02:01.079
should contribute to a sizable uplift it has 25% more Cuda course than its

00:01:59.039 --> 00:02:04.920
predecessor and they're clocked substantially higher that's a good sign

00:02:03.320 --> 00:02:09.440
even before the architectural improvements thanks to its adal love La

00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:14.640
cores this means improved Ray tracing and tensor cores and Shader execution

00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:20.360
reordering which optimizes the order of the data sent to the ray tracing cores

00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:23.160
NVIDIA called this as big an innovation

00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:28.160
for gpus as outof order execution was for CPUs though if our recent poll is

00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:32.000
any indication most of you won't be making use of it anytime soon of course

00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:37.560
how would you given the ongoing popularity of the 10 series gpus which

00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:40.519
are turning 7 years old this year

00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:46.239
NVIDIA's marketing push for the 470 TI is that it makes for a great upgrade

00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:48.480
from 10 and 20 series gpus which okay

00:02:46.239 --> 00:02:53.959
NVIDIA let's play along with that for a moment compared to the GTX 1080 and 1080

00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:58.519
TI at 4K we are looking at a staggering two to three times Improvement in Shadow

00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:03.720
of the Tomb Raider taking us from sub 60 FPS averages to over a 100 Modern

00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:09.000
Warfare 2 is even more impressive at up to 4 and 1 half times the performance

00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:14.640
we're talking cinematic to playable just like that 1440p does give our 10 series

00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:18.400
cards a better chance but we're still looking at two to four times the

00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:23.080
performance in both of these games making this truly an incredible upgrade

00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:30.480
over the 10 series GP no no no no this is stupid I don't need to spend $850 to

00:03:26.720 --> 00:03:33.280
upgrade a 7-year-old card Ah that's

00:03:30.480 --> 00:03:38.360
better to see how it really competes we tested the RTX 470 TI not against what

00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:43.640
NVIDIA wants but against a truly intimidating stack of gpus as an FYI

00:03:41.720 --> 00:03:48.319
even though our review was so recent we sanity checked our RX 7000 series GPU

00:03:46.239 --> 00:03:52.000
results since driver updates have actually changed their performance

00:03:49.799 --> 00:03:55.560
characteristics since launch we've also revalidated any of the numbers that

00:03:53.560 --> 00:04:00.040
we've reused and we'll talk a bit more about our plans for our GPU testing

00:03:57.400 --> 00:04:04.560
methodology in a future video even with the full lineup shadow of the Tomb

00:04:01.519 --> 00:04:07.959
Raider has the 47 ETI within about 8% of

00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:09.519
the RTX 3090 TI which is a fairly

00:04:07.959 --> 00:04:15.200
impressive achievement considering that it is nominally a 70 series GPU what's

00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:23.520
more impressive though is that it gets handily beat by the RX 7900 XT yes yes

00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:26.160
I'm aware that that GPU costs $50 more

00:04:23.520 --> 00:04:32.759
but it's the beginning of a pattern that repeats itself first in F1 2022 where

00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:35.160
the the 470 TI gets stomped well beyond

00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:40.400
what that price difference would suggest starting the 470 TI off on pretty Rocky

00:04:37.880 --> 00:04:45.240
ground Hitman 3 continues this floundering performance with frame rates

00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:48.479
nearly on par with the 3090 TI but well

00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:50.400
off of AMD and the RTX 480 that it used

00:04:48.479 --> 00:04:54.360
to share a name with and it's really more of the same story with Red Dead

00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:59.880
Redemption 2 Assassin's Creed valala Modern Warfare 2 and cyberpunk though

00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:04.639
cyberpunk is more of a beat down thing to that game's memory hungry nature we

00:05:01.960 --> 00:05:09.280
think thankfully for NVIDIA Forza Horizon 5 gives the 470 TI some

00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:15.880
breathing room as it meets or beats the 7900 XT and even beats the 3090 TI

00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:22.080
though it's still a good 133% off of the real 4080 it's a really good thing that

00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:27.759
they changed that naming for 4K gaming then the RTX 4070 TI ends up firmly

00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:30.560
behind both of AMD's Radeon 7000 series

00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:35.199
and everything from NVIDIA from the 3090 TI and up which seems to suggest that

00:05:32.919 --> 00:05:39.880
NVIDIA basically looked at 3090 TI pricing on eBay and said hm about like

00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:46.319
that sounds good maybe things will look a bit better at 1440p and they kind of do now that

00:05:44.400 --> 00:05:51.840
memory bandwidth is less of an issue shadow of the Tomb Raider sees the 470

00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:54.240
TI pull ahead of the 390 TI and close

00:05:51.840 --> 00:05:59.680
the gap on its bigger siblings though it still falls behind AMD if only slightly

00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:04.000
Hitman sees the 47 ETI backsliding a little in relation to the 7900 XT while

00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:09.680
maintaining its performance improvement over the 3090 TI but this doesn't carry

00:06:06.840 --> 00:06:14.120
over into cyberpunk Modern Warfare 2 and Assassin's Creed valhala where we're

00:06:11.520 --> 00:06:19.120
looking at pretty much the same relative performance as our 4K tests Forza

00:06:17.280 --> 00:06:24.440
however picks up spectacularly with the 47 ETI sitting firmly in third place

00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:30.360
contributing to a generally Rosier picture at 1440p overall with roughly

00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:34.960
equal performance to a 3090 TI and a small enough Gap from the 7900 XT it

00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:41.240
looks almost compelling in this overpriced GPU hellscape and that's

00:06:37.919 --> 00:06:44.400
before we turn on Ray tracing which

00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:46.919
works fine right I mean we knew it would

00:06:44.400 --> 00:06:51.639
be superior to the 7900 XT since that's a stronghold for NVIDIA at this point

00:06:49.960 --> 00:06:57.879
but what was surprising is that it wasn't by as much as we expected I was

00:06:54.759 --> 00:07:01.479
shocked to see the 7900 XTX actually

00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:03.440
outperform it at 4K in everything except

00:07:01.479 --> 00:07:09.400
for cyberpunk where the rate tracing course seemed to be doing a better job

00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:11.800
potentially thanks to SC at 1440p things

00:07:09.400 --> 00:07:16.520
again get a bit better for the 470 TI with only a mild loss against the 7900

00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:20.680
XTX in Shadow of the Tomb Raider and overall better performance in the rest

00:07:18.080 --> 00:07:25.599
of the suite cyberpunk hits AMD even harder here but that doesn't help the

00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:29.960
470 TI against its own brothers who pull away significantly that weak memory

00:07:28.039 --> 00:07:35.919
bandwidth seems to be really holding it back here interestingly when we turned

00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:37.759
on dlss 3.0 to test if the 470 TI's

00:07:35.919 --> 00:07:41.520
diminished tensor core count would prevent it from keeping up it did just

00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:46.479
fine in cyberpunk with a similar performance uplift to the 4080 and the

00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:49.479
4090 but then we did not see the same thing in

00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:53.479
f-122 we tried a bunch of different settings here and nothing we did change

00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:57.440
the outcome at all we think this could be a driver issue considering that

00:07:55.199 --> 00:08:00.440
cyberpunk of all games is fine so we've reached out to NVIDIA about it to see

00:07:58.919 --> 00:08:06.319
what they have to say say if they respond in time for this video we'll have their response on screen right now

00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:10.199
um and I'll just use this time to tell you all about how delicious water tastes

00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:16.680
from your LTD store.com water bottle it's great in rate tracing then the 470

00:08:13.039 --> 00:08:19.280
TI is looking a lot like an RTX 39 DTI

00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:23.479
when we look at the overall picture and as expected rate tracing performance for

00:08:21.440 --> 00:08:28.440
the price is superior to anything from team red unfortunately for NVIDIA the

00:08:26.479 --> 00:08:35.479
vast majority of our viewers have never once enabled r retracing and under 15%

00:08:31.960 --> 00:08:37.479
of you actively use it so at least for

00:08:35.479 --> 00:08:41.959
you guys it might not be the trump card that they were hoping it would be what

00:08:39.839 --> 00:08:46.120
might be though is productivity because remember as much as we like to talk

00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:51.000
about games these gpus for a lot of people end up used for work too starting

00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:57.600
with NVIDIA's current Ace in theole blender the 470 TI manages a solid 43%

00:08:55.240 --> 00:09:03.360
improvement over its predecessor but falls behind the RTX 30 390 TI and

00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:07.200
especially the RTX 4080 with performance against the latter being a mostly linear

00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:11.399
relationship with the difference in Ray tracing core count things pick up a

00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:16.399
little with proon with the video editing Suite giving the 470 TI very close

00:09:13.959 --> 00:09:20.600
performance against the 39 DTI though still slightly behind both radon 7000

00:09:18.680 --> 00:09:24.800
series cards photo editing is interesting however most of the results

00:09:22.680 --> 00:09:29.079
are within a couple of percentage points which seems to suggest that any modern

00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:33.000
GPU will be sufficient but this doesn't tell the whole story as more machine

00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:37.360
learning effects and filters trickle into your workflow you can expect to see

00:09:35.079 --> 00:09:42.600
these numbers change and it could be a pretty solid Advantage for NVIDIA Da

00:09:40.160 --> 00:09:46.160
Vinci resolve gives the 470 TI and Bank encoders a run for their money with what

00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:50.320
looks to be a memory bandwidth bottleneck slowing it down considerably

00:09:48.160 --> 00:09:53.920
next to its bigger siblings it manages to be a little bit faster than its

00:09:51.680 --> 00:09:58.760
bandwidth difference would suggest but this unfortunately means that out of our

00:09:55.880 --> 00:10:05.040
test Suite it only really beats the RTX 36 60 in export speed topaz AI though is

00:10:02.800 --> 00:10:09.320
a better story for the 470 TI where its enhanced core architecture makes shorter

00:10:06.839 --> 00:10:14.839
work of this GP GPU workload than even the RTX 390 TI though AMD is the one who

00:10:12.880 --> 00:10:20.160
ends up stealing the show here with even the last gen 6900 XT putting up

00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:25.160
comparable numbers the spec Suites are another strong suit for NVIDIA ever

00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:27.600
since the 20 series and the RTX 470 TI

00:10:25.160 --> 00:10:32.120
trades blows with the 390 TI in a lot of these tests which is a good thing

00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:37.920
unfortunately though there are cases like 3ds Max and solid works that give

00:10:34.880 --> 00:10:40.200
the 470 TI some trouble likely again

00:10:37.920 --> 00:10:44.880
thanks to its relative shortage of cores and limited memory bandwidth however

00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:49.720
energy and medical end up being standout wins for the 470 TI and in all cases

00:10:47.680 --> 00:10:55.680
it's substantially faster than the RTX 380 let alone the 370 TI that ignores

00:10:53.600 --> 00:11:01.079
AMD of course though whose cards all spank it across the board with the

00:10:57.320 --> 00:11:02.760
exception of 3ds Max Seaman NX as usual

00:11:01.079 --> 00:11:06.279
will be ignored in our final performance Tellies since this version is old enough

00:11:04.680 --> 00:11:10.920
to not have proper support for NVIDIA gpus but we're putting the data in here

00:11:08.639 --> 00:11:16.519
in case you're interested finally the 470 TI outperforms the RTX 390 TI in

00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:21.079
every part of spec workstation although as with vew perf AMD maintains big wins

00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:25.760
over all of NVIDIA's cards across most of the suite with the exceptions of

00:11:22.760 --> 00:11:28.120
median entertainment and GPU compute so

00:11:25.760 --> 00:11:33.399
much for that stronghold overall performance looks like a 3090 TI but at

00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:37.399
a lower cost and hopefully a lower power draw but it really does depend on what

00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:42.240
you're doing if you're into 3D rendering or GPU compute you're going to get a lot

00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:46.600
more bang out of a 4070 TI than the 3090 TI which could make it an attractive

00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:51.079
option for the price and hopefully the power draw if you're into video editing

00:11:48.959 --> 00:11:56.079
however it's not a worthy upgrade over even the 3070 TI and you might want to

00:11:53.600 --> 00:12:01.000
consider a 7,000 series Radeon instead if you need a new GPU today preferably

00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:07.079
one with Hardware av1 encoding support so if we're looking at an RTX 390 or 390

00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:12.200
TI equivalent here surely the 470 TI should be more energy efficient too well

00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:16.519
in MSI combuster it pulled the lowest out of not only the 40 series family but

00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:21.320
also when compared to AMD's price competitors hovering at around 280 Watts

00:12:19.079 --> 00:12:27.320
most of the time and never breaking past its 285 watt rating when we switch to a

00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:31.320
more real world test f-122 the story stays pretty much the same this time

00:12:29.199 --> 00:12:36.240
with the card hovering at around 275 Watts that is well within spec even

00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:41.600
though our card is a factory overclocked model it's worth noting by the way guys

00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:43.399
that in our Radeon RX 7900 series review

00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:47.480
we made a mistake when we changed the way that we collected our data and we

00:12:45.160 --> 00:12:52.279
initially showed total Graphics power and total board power in the same chart

00:12:50.040 --> 00:12:56.040
those measurements are not comparable so this time we are strictly using total

00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:59.800
board power and in the future we're planning to use external equipment for

00:12:57.720 --> 00:13:04.360
better accuracy than board sensor or NVIDIA's pcap stay tuned for that

00:13:02.720 --> 00:13:08.839
when we zoom in on our power consumption results for fortza Horizon 5 at 1440p

00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:14.000
the power consumption without a frame rate cap is pretty much in line with the

00:13:10.880 --> 00:13:16.120
RTX 480 which actually is not a great

00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:21.560
thing considering that it ran about 5 to 10 FPS slower however when we cap the

00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:26.320
frame rate to 100 it actually lines up so perfectly I almost thought the graph

00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:30.920
only had three lines AMD's cards by comparison ran about 30 to 50 Watts

00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:37.079
higher most of the time that works out to about 17 watts per frame less than

00:13:33.880 --> 00:13:40.120
the radon 7900 XT when it's uncapped and

00:13:37.079 --> 00:13:44.000
a good 35 Watts when capped not a bad

00:13:40.120 --> 00:13:45.519
efficiency story and no high idle power

00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:50.880
consumption bugs when connected to different monitors like we saw with

00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:52.519
AMD's 7000 series now thermals are going

00:13:50.880 --> 00:13:58.040
to be a difficult conversation since there isn't a like a reference or a

00:13:55.079 --> 00:14:02.759
Founders edition of the RTX 470 TI with a standard cooler for us to test with

00:14:01.079 --> 00:14:07.399
that in mind then take these results with a grain of salt starting with

00:14:04.800 --> 00:14:12.959
combuster it's not looking great for our tough OC edition of the 470 TI which

00:14:10.160 --> 00:14:17.759
quickly ramps up past 80° and holds there throughout our run this is well

00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:23.839
above the RTX 480 with its Founders cooler and More in line with the 490

00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:26.560
f-122 pushes the 470 TI even higher

00:14:23.839 --> 00:14:30.800
relative to the 490 sticking again to around the 80° Mark to be clear this

00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:35.600
isn't the end of the world as long as the core clocks are high and stable at

00:14:33.079 --> 00:14:40.360
these temperatures and high they probably will be I suspect that the only

00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:44.199
470 TI that you will find readily available at launch will be Factory

00:14:41.959 --> 00:14:48.880
overclocked like ours which managed among the highest clocks that we've ever

00:14:45.959 --> 00:14:54.040
seen on a GPU even though it can't maintain full boosting combuster and has

00:14:51.279 --> 00:14:59.040
a little bit more wobble than the RTX 480 it's worth saying again though that

00:14:56.759 --> 00:15:05.560
your mileage will vary depending on a given cards cooling setup and vbios

00:15:02.079 --> 00:15:07.360
f-122 is a more realistic load and sees

00:15:05.560 --> 00:15:12.720
that variation calm down a bit with the 470 TI with it regularly hitting our

00:15:09.959 --> 00:15:17.079
Factory overclocked cards 2.7 GHz boost clock but again your mileage may vary

00:15:15.199 --> 00:15:21.040
once the first summer heat wave strikes because as you guys saw we're flying

00:15:19.079 --> 00:15:26.040
pretty close to the Sun on our thermals and that's in a temperature controlled

00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:31.079
room as the saying goes there's no such thing as a bad product only a bad price

00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:38.000
so so it's time to talk about that originally announced at $900 as the RTX

00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:40.800
4802 gig the current starting price now

00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:48.920
that it is the 47 ETI is $800 that's $100 less but not only is

00:15:45.199 --> 00:15:51.959
that $200 higher than the RTX 370 TI

00:15:48.920 --> 00:15:54.600
MSRP was at launch that price only

00:15:51.959 --> 00:16:00.360
barely puts it in a competitive position against the Radeon RX 7900 XT in typical

00:15:57.600 --> 00:16:05.399
raster gaming and it's not even guaranteed to net you 60 FPS if you do

00:16:02.920 --> 00:16:10.560
turn on rate tracing making some flavor of dlss a necessity unless you want to

00:16:07.680 --> 00:16:17.440
dial back the settings on an $850 card it's still a lot For What by

00:16:14.199 --> 00:16:21.279
its name should be a high mid-range GPU

00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:24.079
not a step down Enthusiast class one so

00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:30.720
how does NVIDIA justify its astronomical price tag for a 70 series GPU that as we

00:16:27.839 --> 00:16:35.959
said before really seems more like a 60 super to put it bluntly they don't and

00:16:34.319 --> 00:16:40.319
as far as they're concerned they shouldn't have to I mean you think they

00:16:38.160 --> 00:16:45.600
renamed the RTX 470 TI out of the goodness of their hearts and it was a

00:16:41.800 --> 00:16:47.720
big win no up until literally just last

00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:53.240
week it was still up in the air whether NVIDIA would drop the price at all

00:16:50.560 --> 00:16:58.600
compared to the announced $900 price for the RTX 4802 gig it took their business

00:16:56.319 --> 00:17:03.199
partners begging and pleading with them to make that happen and that was in

00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:09.559
spite of the reportedly atrocious sales figures for the RTX 480 and the radon

00:17:06.520 --> 00:17:12.720
7900 xt's existence at that very same

00:17:09.559 --> 00:17:15.160
price point it's good they yielded but

00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:18.480
they still have more work to do Invidia reportedly offered Partners some

00:17:16.760 --> 00:17:21.959
compensation for the work involved in the rebranding but at this point we

00:17:20.600 --> 00:17:27.600
haven't heard confirmation that they intend to do the same for this new

00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:30.080
MSRP that means that if this chart

00:17:27.600 --> 00:17:35.600
showing the meager scraps of margin that NVIDIA leads for its Partners is to be

00:17:31.960 --> 00:17:38.240
believed any MSRP cards that you see are

00:17:35.600 --> 00:17:43.160
going to be very limited in stock and essentially just for show so that media

00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:48.080
like us will be suckers and talk about how this card is$

00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:49.480
799 board makers like any other business

00:17:48.080 --> 00:17:55.159
are not going to go out of their way to lose money if NVIDIA hasn't adjusted the

00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:58.840
pricing ASUS's top end stricks 470 TI

00:17:55.159 --> 00:18:01.400
then is just $150 less than a 480

00:17:58.840 --> 00:18:06.440
Founders Edition making even that card look good by comparison reports from

00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:10.159
ASUS suggest that the tough OC will be the most plentiful skew but from

00:18:08.799 --> 00:18:14.000
conversations we've had with Memory Express here in Canada that's actually

00:18:12.000 --> 00:18:19.280
been the opposite for the rest of the 40 series lineup where almost no tough

00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:21.679
cards exist so what it looks like is

00:18:19.280 --> 00:18:26.120
NVIDIA is pointing at the price saying but it can't be expensive we set it at

00:18:23.120 --> 00:18:28.039
$799 see but the partners have

00:18:26.120 --> 00:18:30.640
absolutely no way of achieving that in the real world

00:18:29.280 --> 00:18:34.520
I'm having a hard time figuring out NVIDIA's game here to be honest with you

00:18:32.679 --> 00:18:39.799
the GPU Market has reportedly hit a 20year sales low thanks to a combination

00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:44.559
of high prices the mining crash and extenuating economic circumstances and

00:18:42.360 --> 00:18:50.840
yet NVIDIA seems determined to pour water on the fire expecting a huge

00:18:47.320 --> 00:18:53.559
premium even on products in the high SL

00:18:50.840 --> 00:18:57.760
mid tier of their product stag I mean don't forget as much as we focus on

00:18:55.480 --> 00:19:03.200
desktop gpus and PC gaming on this channel the real competition for a card

00:19:00.320 --> 00:19:08.120
like this could easily be an Xbox or a PlayStation 5 either of which would

00:19:05.679 --> 00:19:12.760
frankly be a much more compelling value to the average gamer and I feel like

00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:18.760
NVIDIA if they don't turn things around is at risk of losing PC gaming customers

00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:23.919
long term to the console side it's starting to almost look like a a

00:19:20.520 --> 00:19:25.760
microsof Ian good bad good cycle that

00:19:23.919 --> 00:19:31.000
they've been on for the last few years here 10 series was great 20 series was a

00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:36.360
that fart 30 series kickstarted a whole new generation of PC gamers in spite of

00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:40.679
the pandemic price hikes and as product development Cycles run for longer and

00:19:38.320 --> 00:19:46.000
longer with each new generation the impact of this kind of please people 50%

00:19:43.600 --> 00:19:50.039
of the time piss them off 50% of the time starts to become more dramatic and

00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:54.360
NVIDIA clearly hasn't learned their lesson yet I mean apple and Tesla have

00:19:52.679 --> 00:19:58.919
proven that people will still buy your product even if you treat them badly but

00:19:56.679 --> 00:20:03.640
that only holds true if you have the absolute best products on the market it

00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:10.679
doesn't build loyalty so this strategy around the 4070 TI and especially the

00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:13.000
480 clearly isn't it for the long term

00:20:10.679 --> 00:20:19.200
it is time for NVIDIA to focus on squeezing out margins less and

00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:22.080
delighting customers more now AMD Is Not

00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:28.080
Innocent here to be clear while the RX 7900 series is a better value than the

00:20:24.919 --> 00:20:30.520
4080 the 4070 TI is content to price

00:20:28.080 --> 00:20:35.840
itself right in line with its performance against the 7900 XT a card

00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:41.280
that also should probably be more like $700 considering its 80 class

00:20:38.559 --> 00:20:45.440
performance level NVIDIA enabled AMD then to charge more themselves through

00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:50.679
their own astronomical pricing and AMD is in turn enabling NVIDIA to normalize

00:20:47.960 --> 00:20:55.960
those prices by providing a comparably fair price on this step down product

00:20:53.400 --> 00:21:00.320
which NVIDIA can then compete with as they both run down the stack as long as

00:20:58.360 --> 00:21:04.080
this continues and as long as NVIDIA keeps trying to kill Moore's law in the

00:21:02.080 --> 00:21:08.159
collective Consciousness things are never going to change nowhere is this

00:21:06.600 --> 00:21:13.960
attitude more apparent than NVIDIA's positioning for the RTX 470 TI not as

00:21:11.320 --> 00:21:22.120
competition for AMD or even against a 30 series card but as an upgrade from 20

00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:24.240
series and 10 series gpus and I mean yes

00:21:22.120 --> 00:21:29.640
it is an upgrade but it would also be an upgrade over a toaster or a lital potato

00:21:27.840 --> 00:21:34.360
especially if that potato is 7 years old I mean even an arc GPU would be an

00:21:31.880 --> 00:21:39.760
upgrade over a 10 series most of the time so like what's your point

00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:44.679
NVIDIA final word then it's a good product at a bad price from a company

00:21:42.559 --> 00:21:50.320
that is failing more and more to hide its ugly nature you're going to buy it

00:21:47.520 --> 00:21:54.159
you always do and you know what you'll probably be happy with it but I don't

00:21:52.200 --> 00:21:58.720
have to be happy about that what I am happy to tell you about is our sponsor

a little more on what NVIDIA is up against this generation AMD seems to be

00:22:44.159 --> 00:22:52.440
catching up slowly but surely even if um

00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:52.440
they too cost a fortune
