Rumor: GeForce RTX 3090 Now Would Cost 1399 USD

A few days ago we mentioned that the GeForce RTX 3090 would sit in a 2000 USD marker, well, a new day and a new price is now mentioned to be 1399 USD, that and a spec change.

The latest rumor comes from Wjm47196, who admittedly has a history of leaks/rumors that turned out to be true, he mentions that the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 will have a starting price of $ 1,399. This is $ 200 more than the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, which was priced at $ 1,199 for the Founders Edition. You read it right, starting price.

Historically NVIDIA has had a price level that differs from the AIB partners, though, so currently, I am thinking in the lines of 1500 USD. If so, the price of the Founders Edition would have a ~25% increase over Turing. The main reason for the price increase could be associated with the massive amounts of memory that the RTX 3090 incorporates. While the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti has 11GB of GDDR6, the GeForce RTX 3090 is expected to boast 24GB .(again a rumor). The GeForce RTX 3090 will be the flagship, but if all this is correct, you can expect custom AIB models to cost more than $ 1,500.

I'm still at a loss on the memory configuration, 24GB adds to the bill of cost, while we see little benefit? I mean 12 Gb would make more sense here.

This means - 1500 EUR for a top-end GPU in the EU and 1700-1800 EUR for an AIO version.

2080 is coming in 10 and 20gb versions,this is confirmed info.
3090 is 24gb,I suspect there's gonna be a 3080Ti with 11-12gb in the middle.

That seems like a sharp uplift again from NVIDIA. Hasn't the price of memory reduced per GB with process node shrinks?

I suspect the price hike has more to do with the lack of competition and the need to keep profits trending upwards and the share price doing the same. If/when AMD or Intel release cards that are competive at lower prices I suspect we'll find that there is a lot of scope to adjust RTX prices to stay competitive.
