Nvidia prices RTX4090D identical to RTX4090 so there is no way RTX5880 will be priced according to its performance. Just the name alone is enough to tell it's going to cost 5880/6000 x $6999 = $6859.
I would not be surprised if this card ends up significantly more expensive than you would think it should be, given the marginal improvement over the 5000 performance wise. This will be the best nVidia card you can buy in China, and as such, they'll be able to charge a premium for it in that market.
Everybody else - who are allowed to buy it - will probably be better served with the 6000.

@Anton , The RTX 5880 shouldn't have 14,080 Tensor cores.ballsystemlord - Tuesday, January 9, 2024 - link
I mean unless there's something about the HW IDK. Likewire with the RTX 5000 which you've put down as 12,800 Tensor cores.scottj - Tuesday, January 9, 2024 - link
It does, though. Check the datasheet. https://nvdam.widen.net/s/nzwcv2hrtl/proviz-rtx-58...PeachNCream - Wednesday, January 10, 2024 - link
The China paranoia certainly helps make more China paranoia.ballsystemlord - Wednesday, January 10, 2024 - link

Indeed. China can't buy the 6000. They'll (mostly) happily pay 6000 money for the 5880 to gobble up as many GPUs as possible for AI/ML.twtech - Friday, January 19, 2024 - link
