Benchmark numbers are nice, but none of that matters until we see the price it actually sells for.

Both of them marketed false MSRPs. I haven't even seen screenshots of a 9070 xt actually selling at $600. I see tons and tons listed for $800-900. This isn't scalpers either, these are listings from newegg, Amazon, best buy, etc
Haven't run the comparison on NV33 versus 44, but if find the 5060 series kind of interesting given the area and transistor count increases relative to ada lovelace.
33 was a full node behind and priced high for what it was (even if BOM was mostly in-line).
