Radeon RX5600 XT MECH OC 6GB …
A brand-new report recommends that Nvidias upcoming flagship Ampere graphics card, which some people are calling the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 (though were still not convinced by that name), could come with an extremely high price– of around $2,000.
The report comes from what appears to be an internal memo, which recommends a rate of ¥ 1,3999 in Chinese yuan, about $2,000/ ₤ 1,500/ AU$ 2,800. This would make the RTX 3090 (or whatever it ends up being called) one of the most costly consumer graphics cards ever made if true.
It would likewise suggest this new flagship is almost twice the price of Nvidias existing flagship, the RTX 2080 Ti, which launched for $1,199 (₤ 1,099, AU$ 1,899).
If this report is real– and thats a big if at the moment– it implies youre going to need to spend a big amount of money for the most powerful RTX 3000 series GPU.

Would it deserve it?.
Would a graphics card costing $2,000 ever be worth it? After all, for that rate you might get a whole new gaming PC or video gaming laptop.
Its hard to state, as we dont know what the RTX 3090– if it exists– would be offering. Recent leaks suggest the GPU will come with 12GB of ultra-fast GDDR6X memory, while another points at a huge 24GB of memory.
That could put it in RTX Titan terrority. Nvidias Titan GPUs, which although based on the same tech as Nvidias video gaming GPUs, remain in reality focused on content creators and feature high price tags which are relatively affordable compared to professional GPUs.
The existing Titan card, the RTX Titan, costs $2,499 (around ₤ 2,000, AU$ 3,600). We actually have one in for testing games at 8K, though its entirely overkill for normal gaming.
If the RTX 3090 is in fact a Titan-level card, it could in fact be more affordable (we use economical loosely here) GPU, and one that Nvidia wont target at players.
We also do not understand what the RTX 3080 Ti/RTX 3080 Ti and other RTX 3000 series GPUs cost– and an expensive RTX 3090 might imply (if were feeling positive) cheaper GPUs listed below it.
A poster on the Chiphell forums suggests the high end RTX 3000 card will be $1,399 (around ₤ 1,000/ AU$ 2,000), with a Founders Edition costing $1,499 (around ₤ 1,130/ AU$ 2,060).
Thats a bit more affordable, however still indicates we must expect the high-end GPUs from Nvidia to be really costly. If youre intending to upgrade when Nvidia launches the brand-new graphics cards at its September 1 event, then you might discover you need to pay out a substantial amount of cash..
