An RTX 4090 FE is still $1599, and an RTX FE 4080 is $1199. The performance difference is supposedly between 20-30% which would be a price difference of $317 to $479, seems fair that it's being priced about $400 lower than the 4090 to me :\

And it kind of makes sense that if the performance difference changes because a card is overclocked by a partner vendor, the performance difference is probably less, hence the price difference.

They should be comparing apples to apples, otherwise it's just histrionics.

An OC 4090 will cost similarly more than an FE 4090, the way an OC 4080 will cost more than an FE 4080. So it stands to reason that an OC 4080 will be closer in price & performance to an FE 4090.
