    I will wait for super edition of 3080 with 20GB VRAM. Honestly 3080 having only 10GB is such a waste. Don't buy it guys. Once new consoles are out and we have a lot new games next year you will see games requiring atleast 16GB VRAM for high deatils settings.

    DID YOU SEE THAT?

    3090 = $1500 BUT 8k RTX ON with DLSS or 8k HDR Shadowplay.
    Not that I care about 8k res, but this means my 4k/120hz monitor and HP Reverb G2 will finally see some use!
    Yeah well, I guess I'm gonna be some €1900 poorer come end of September since here in Sweden we're pretty much ripped off.

    We know nothing about their 8k demo other than DLSS was used and 8K LG OLED(Which has it's own image processing). All we know they could've used 4k and upscaled it and let the TV handle the rest. Not saying it's impressive. But we don't know enough to say anything really.

    But ye it should be good for 120hz 4k for that price. If it ain't it's a massive disappointment. And tbh a 3080 should be enough for it too. But we have to wait and see when the reviews come out. Hopefully ahead of the cards launching.

    Looking to get the 3080 myself since my birthday is in September anyway.(using a 1050ti atm)
    But dat 3090, I couldn’t even imagine the size of the computer meant to hold that monster.

    I have a tiny computer. It's gonna fit. I'll drill holes if I have to (and keeping the case since I love it).

    It's 8k/30hz with HDR and 8k/60hz with DLSS/RTX On.
    Jensen said it in the stream.
    And I'm pretty sure they would not upscale 4k res and call it 8k, that's a marketing disaster. Nvidia would never pull that, they'd get roasted.

    There are a few things to consider though.

    3080 is $700
    3090 is $1500

    That's a big price gap. This means there's definitely 3080Ti coming that will cost around $900-$1000, probably with 16gb vram.
    When?
    Once Big Navi drops. Perhaps a bit later. Which means Big Navi will compete with 3080, but not 3090. 3090 is a rebranded Titan.
    And since 3090 is about 20% more cores than 3080, it's probably not worth spending more than twice the cost of 3080, for around 30-50% more performance (although if it's 50% faster than 3080 I'm getting it and keeping for 4+ years).

    One thing is for sure.
    I feel bad for all who bought 2xxx in the past 4 months. Especially 2080Ti for $1200+. That card went from $1200 to $400 in 20 minutes lol.
    I anticipated a big perf jump with Ampere and dumped my 1080Ti for €500 in May. I just did not expect this (low) price.

    If you have any thing smaller then a mid tower, then forget about getting the 3090 to fit. Not even drilling holes in the case will help you

    Yeah, the price jump between GPU generations is just too much to justify buying a new card. Considering I play on 1080p - that satisfies me-, I don't care about the new cards.

    There isn't a big performance delta from 3080 to 3090 from what we saw. But sure they could release a 3090 with 12 gb of ram and call it a 3080ti.

    I'm glad my next case is going to be open-air.. 'cuz a 3090 isn't fitting in my current one.

    But I'll probably be picking up a 3090 as soon as it drops. Hopefully being in a smaller market will mean less scalpers to steal all the supply.

    I just read on twitter they said it was faster in ray tracing performance. I feel like the 2080ti will be fast in non-ray tracing scenarios still. Nonetheless I cant wait to see the benchmarks

  12. #192
    I'm using a 1080 Ti now. Getting the 3080 as soon as it's available in my country. Nvidia claims the 3070 to be faster than the 2080 Ti, so the 3080 should be the perfect spot... and it costs less than I paid for my 1080 Ti >.<

    If the claims that a 3070 is faster than 2080 Ti are true then the prices of used 2080 Ti are going to fucking plummet. The 3070 will be about 650$ in my country, so a used 2080ti shouldn't exceed ~540 USD, any more than that and you're losing money and performance by buying one and unless you're way way out of the loop on the current gen of GPUs, I don't think anybody would ever pay more than that for a used 2080Ti right now. This gen of cards is looking extremely good if their claims aren't bullshit. This is like the 1080 Ti again - monster GPU for a hella decent price.

    Jesus fuck the 3080 is a fucking monster. 80-100% faster in actual games than a slightly OC'd 2080.

    Pricing looks better than I expected, basically $100 less for both 3070 and 3080 than what was leaked, so no price increase from last gen. Good. Don't care about the 3090 as it's beyond enthusiast level.

    Performance seems to be within the ballpark of what everyone suspected, i.e 3070 ~ 2080TI and 3080 ~ 30-40% better than 2080TI (Take the "up to 2x 2080 performance" with a huge grain of salt folks). That was my prediction based on available leaks back in June as well.

    I'll still be waiting for more info on what AMD shows up with before deciding on anything.


    Also a friendly PSA to people thinking of buying the 3080/3090 with the reference design. YOU WILL NEED AN AIO LIQUID COOLER FOR YOUR CPU!
    Why? Because the reference cooler will push hot air from the GPU directly to the intake of a CPU air cooler in a traditional front-to-back airflow case. This is very very bad for CPU temps. With previous GPU cooling designs that are like this i.e. 1 fan blowing through the cooler/card, you can simply invert the case airflow to be back-to-front and it will be fine (I have my case set up like this) but in this case Nvidia made 1 of the fans into a blower style fan that will exhaust hot air toward the back. In a back-to-front airflow setup this hot air will get sucked in again by the rear intake fan which is again, very bad for CPU temps.

    How do I know this? Because I have a Sapphire Pulse Vega 56 which is a very similar design. Having a front-to-back airflow pattern in my case with that GPU resulted in ~15C higher load temps on my old i7-4770 using a Scythe Mugen 5 cooler compared to back-to-front airflow.

    Digital Foundry released a 3080 vs slightly OC'd 2080 % performance comparison in 4K current gen titles.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWD0...ature=youtu.be

    I'd say this is as real as it gets. The 3080 is the sweetspot of GPUs like 1080 Ti was when it came out. Absolute fucking monster.

    Yeah I mean, estimating ~70 maybe 75%? better over a large number of games than 2080 (not including RTX performance). A 2080TI is what, 20 - 25% better than a 2080? That would make a 3080 ~50% better than a 2080TI so slightly better than my prediction. Ofc as always wait for reviews.

    Both pricing and performance would then be a little bit better than I expected so I'm pleased with that. Big Navi on RDNA2 is rumored to be somewhere in the ~50% higher performance than a 2080TI as well so this is shaping up to be a very interesting battle this autumn. Big win in that case for us consumers.

    As someone that wants to go 4K soon, I would be happy with that, most games I play dont have ray tracing or for WoWs case, not heavily used.

    I am hoping 4K above 60 Hz displays come out more mainstream, I like playing at 75Hz at the least, already picked up a DP 1.4 cable and PCI gen 4 ready anyways, however PSU be interesting, my PSU is about 10 years old now and still going but it is 650 watts.

    Jensen killed it today, very impressed
    I will be buying a :

    custom (~MSI) regular 3x fan setup 3080 20GB (hopefully) and very preferabbly with 2x HDMI 2.1 + 2x DP, instead of 1+3

    Glad they renamed the 2080ti to a 3090 so the suckers will keep spending over 1200 dollars on what was once a 700 dollar videocard bracket

    ok nvm

    Im seeing a bunch of custom cards all have 3x DP + 2x HDMI as standard
    thats great
