I wish I had top notch gear :(

I just don't think a price-to-performance improvement of 12.5% for a new generation is good. It's OK, sure, but nothing to write home about.

It'd be good at $449 and great at $399 but I haven't seen any leak suggesting these prices.

I just don't want this card to be an incremental improvement over the 7800 XT instead of a substantial one.

Edit: Wouldn't this make the 9070 XT pretty much identical to the 7900 GRE both in price and in performance? From what I can tell, the 7900 GRE is the best price-to-performance upper midrange card AMD has.
