How is that aggressive pricing? Those are the same prices they have used for previous generations.

See for yourself:

People are going to get a massive jump in performance for just $500. I don't think we've ever seen this before.

A massive jump in RTX performance.. which no one actually uses. They didn't even show regular performance comparison.

Hardware Unboxed tested an RTX 3080 and it seems like the performance improvements are not just in ray tracing: https://youtu.be/cWD01yUQdVA

It looks pretty impressive.

Yeah, at least that's the claim. We'll see how that holds up with real world benchmarks.
