I really wonder if Nvidia will announce new SRPs, what's the point, it will just be a futile message to AMD to also start prioritizing from now on discounts for the above $700 models, doesn't Jensen have Liza's phone number lol?
3080Ti's $1099 SRP will only be $100 less but it's understandable (certainly they don't want to give the message to the consumer that even Nvidia themselves think that 3080Ti must be lower priced than RX6950XT SRP by setting a $999 SRP for example and also 3080Ti is so close to 3090 as far as usable GA102 die that they don't want to prioritize 3080Ti's production because they can make more money with 3090 while being more bulletproof vs 4080 due to memory advantage)
So next is 3090Ti model (which is the most troublesome) that from now on allegedly will occupy the former 3090 price $1499 and last RTX 3090 in the middle ($1299).
But they can just drop the prices without announcing any new SRPs following the strategy that AMD had the last months.
Since AMD already the last months is selling much lower than SRP most of it's models, (unless it wants to change strategy if their stock level is low or at least satisfying) they can respond with lowering their SRPs at the current AMD street price level, making Nvidia's announcement a complete failure!
It probably won't happen, but it may be an opportunity for AMD to try to pass the message that they are more consumer-friendly company in relation to Nvidia (without essentially lowering their real street prices at all)
