This card should have been priced cheaper, 600$ at the most. And that would still not be all that impressive.
You have to have something compelling.............AMD just has.................. something
I'm sure it will come down in price. Better to have at least a duopoly than a monopoly.
There's been monopoly in the CPU market for 9 years now, and I have to say the 4790K and 4690 I bought for $340 and $220 last year are the best processors I've ever had. (by far) intel knows that no sane person is buying a FX cpu, and yet year after year they turn out great cpus for very reasonable prices.
If (when) AMD leaves the desktop pc market, NVIDIA and intel will keep advancing the tech and selling it to us at prices people are willing to pay because they have to keep the lights on and pay the stockholders.
They can't just say,"Haha! Our new card will run all games at 4K! AMD has nothing, they will cost $3000!" because people would just laugh and play at 1080p for the most part.
