Galax GeForce RTX 4070 Price Matches Newly Launched Radeon RX 7800 XT (NZ Only - So Far) ( www.techpowerup.com )

PB Tech New Zealand has lowered the price of a Galax GeForce RTX 4070 1 CLICK OC X2 12 GB graphics card to stay competitive with the initial batch of freshly released AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT cards. This particular custom NVIDIA model is not quite as fancy as its triple fan sibling that sits in TPU's database, but the promotional price of NZ$999 (abt $588 USD) could be enough to tempt customers away from Team Red's new mid-range offerings—starting with Sapphire's reference model at NZ$998.99. For NZ$1018.99 (abt $600 USD) you reach the first tier of custom design RX 7800 XT models—ASRock's AMD Challenger 16 GB OC and a Sapphire Pulse Gaming 16 GB card.

And still AMD is better according to Benchmarks.
Someone really wanted to argue that NVidia is better because the RTX 4090 is better than the RX 7900 XTX. The 4090 is 550€ more expensive than AMD. If you want to be scammed it’s OK I guess lmao.

to be fair, it only performs better in pure raster performance which most benchmarks focus on because AMD doesn't really have solid DLSS and framegen solutions. Plus Nvidia's ray-tracing perf is still generally better in most games. Sure FSR3 is coming, but even then FSR upscaling will never truly compete with DLSS. Ray-tracing though is still lagging (though they are making progress!)

Whether folks care about those or want to use them can vary a lot. Regardless, any competition to bring down the ridiculous prices of this gen is good.
