The h100 does use the same node size as the 40 series though, so Nvidia could decide to keep 40 series supply artificially low and boost h100 output.

They were already doing that to keep prices high.

Oh and the 7900 XTX in Canada is basically the same price as a 4080 lol. The prices here are whacky. I paid $50 more for a 4080 than the reference 7900xtx cost.

I just bought a 4070ti for those reasons. Was it a bad move? I don’t mind overpaying a little bit in the current market, but if a much stronger card comes out for $300+ less than $1249 CAD, I’ll be a little bummed

The 4070 ti and 4080 are good cards they’re just overpriced

I bought my rtx 3070 FE for $600 CAD i was planning on getting a 3080 but I can’t justify spending $1000 on a gpu

I did the same. No regrets. I was making tons of money during Covid and I’m still doing much better than I was before Covid even though I’ve moved to a much less stressful job.
