And I'm already afraid of seeing the absurd prices + abysmal value Nvidia will come up with.

We might all be pleasantly surprised. If NVidia thought the pricing on the existing 4080, 4070 Ti, and 4070 GPUs was fine, they wouldn't bother bringing out a refresh. They do this instead of just lowering prices, because they don't want to create a precedent in buyer's minds that if they just wait on buying existing cards, prices will come down. Yes, I know, it's very transparent to us, but not to most consumers. Plus, a refresh creates some marketing buzz.

Now, how much prices (for certain performance tiers) will go down is the big question. How aggressive does NVidia want to be? We'll see in a month and a half!
