Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
So basically a 3080/6800xt as suspected Stagnation throughout the generation
The power usage is the biggest selling point imo. 200w is 2/3 rd the power of the 6800xt and 3080. (300w and 320w)

$600 for midrange.
Jensen can eat my ass.
The MW II result at 1440p is interesting as it performs way better compared to other nvidia cards and even at 4k it ain't that bad. Otherwise kinda all over the place and very title dependent, sometimes faster than a 3080, sometimes slower and 4k makes it worse, which is no surprise. Curious to see benchmarks 2 years from now how it'll stack then.
SFF crowd is going to love these. 3080/6800XT performance in a smaller, cooler and much more efficient package. High performance 250-270mm 2-slot cards in 2023 is almost a miracle and a dream come true for people with older and smaller SFF cases...
Stopped being interested when I saw that it is slower than a 6800XT.
And more expensive.
It seems like it all boils down to ROPs, which are usually tied with memory controllers.
4070 has 158.4 Gpixel/s (64 ROPs) pixel throughput compared to 3080's 164.2 (96 ROPs), as far as advertised frequencies are concerned (per TPU).
N5's raw clockspeed advantage is saving the day here. Otherwise, it's the same old Ampere with a bloated L2 cache and other minor tidbits.
In 3-4 years I might own one when the used price is genuinely 'midrange'
So basically at $600 the best option is the 6950XT.
