I think getting a new card at MSRP on launch will be very unlikely. A more reasonable expectation would be a few months after launch. Also, a lot of people seem to think AMD is going to price their new top card at $500 but it will perform at 7900xtx levels for raster but significantly outperform it in RTX.
This would be a 50% price to performance value increase, and AMD is simply not going to do it. AMD is in businesses to make as much profit as possible, not hookup gamers with good deals.

I also remember when unboxing it that it felt like there was a distinct lack of seals, pci covers, peels or anything indicating the product hadn't been used/returned. I suspect the reason this card keeps going on sale in waves is because they're reboxing returns from after every sale and not labeling them open box. Every other gpu I've bought has had an obnoxious amount of peels and seals. This would be easy to use for a bit and return at the end of a return window.
The pricing will be interesting to see. But, given that AMD appears to plan on using the same XX50, XX60, XX70 naming scheme that Nvidia uses, something tells me they might try to match Nvidia's prices for each tier while using the deceptive naming scheme to trick consumers into buying their GPUs. I hope I'm wrong.
Edit: Added link to interview with AMD executive, where he stated that AMD will be focusing on the mid-tier GPU market for the foreseeable future to gain market share (https://www.tomshardwar

In any case, even a card with 7900gre performance in raster can be competitive, if it's priced correctly.
