Gibbo over at OCUK laid it out a few days back...
Vega VII is Feb 7th and OcUK is launch partner and we should have limited quantities. AMD will not be selling direct in UK. Price shall be £650 - £700 !
NAVI an update is expected June (Computex) and on shelf is likely to be expected September-November time, this could come as early as July or as late as December.
The prices will be higher than rumoured, as those who believe rumours are total idiots, like the silly people who though 1080Ti would be £300-£400 to be cleared, like the people who though GTX 1180 or 2080 was coming at £500.
AMD will undercut NVIDIA and match performance, but the price shall not be half for same performance level. You have to think logical about such things.
RX 590 shall remain and Vega 7nm is flagship part, NAVI won't out perform Vega 7 what you will have is:
RX 590 @ £199 no doubt to clear
RX 3060 @ 580 performance for £149, so fitting in where 570 is now, same price but more performance.
RX 3070 @ Vega 56 Performance for £249 - £299
Vega 56 @ £299 but by then there shall be none left
Vega 64 @ £399 but again there shall be none left
RX 3080 @ Vega 64 +15% so a true 1080 beater and it shall be £349-£399
Vega VII @ £599 no doubt reduced to clear any excess inventory for Vega 7nm+ or next high performance part.
All based on 1.25-1.35 pound strength
If we get above 1.50 by said time, those prices will be impacted in a positive way (downwards) and as will all NVIDIA cards too.
AMD are already giving better value for money compared to NVIDIA now, with the above they simply become even further better value for money, more performance, power reduction and of course lower cost.
AMD is not a charity, they won't be half the price because to put it if they can make more margin, they absolutely will, not because they are greedy, but because they need to survive and make good profits to keep developing and keeping researching better products and technology. Look at the slump AMD had for years when they were making loss after loss, RX 290, RX 390, RX 480, RX 580, just the same stuff re-spun and their competitor gaining more and more market share. Profits equal more advancement, better marketing, better drives and most important better products.
AMD have come so far in past 12 months alone compared to five years previous on CPU particular.
