I'm on a 1070ti and just upgraded my 144hz 1080p monitor to 144hz 1440p so I'm definitely leaning toward the 3080.

 

[psorcerer]

Teraflops do not equate to performance. Otherwise the 3090 would be 3 times faster than the 2080Ti, which it isn't.

If it's a "marketing TF"

 

[NeonDelta]

The 3070 honestly has me rethinking getting Series X and just building a PC instead early to mid next year.

same here. I think I’m going PS5 for console and will get a 3070 end of next year instead of getting an Xbox series x

 

[Rentahamster]

70 to 80 percent performance boost, that's crazy

 

[michaelius]

How soon until we can expect benchmarks?

Probably somewhere around 10th since it will a week till shop release.

 

[Hezekiah]

£649 IN THE UK FOR THE 3080 AND £469 FOR 3070

You got a link for that mate?

 

[AGRacing]

Hey we're back at Teraflops again.

Teraflops do not equate to performance. Otherwise the 3090 would be 3 times faster than the 2080Ti, which it isn't.

I've given up hope on people understanding this.

 

[Bryank75]

PS5 this christmas and a PC with a 3080 or 3090 early next year.....

Xbox is done, power was a bad bet.

Any idea of 3090 price?

 

[Croatoan]

build now just make sure to get a mobo with pcie 4.0

Looking at a x570 mobo right now with a 3700x. Is that enough for a 3080 to be happy or should I wait for Ryzen 4000? Has there been any indication that Ryzen 4000 will be AM4?

Any reason to go B550 over X570?

[manfestival]

imagine their strategy of grossly overpricing the 20 series having worked out that the 30 series looks fantastic. Either way, I am in for selling my 2080 and getting a 3080

 

[DemonCleaner]

Weekend

Today

Buy the dips, this will pop like Tesla.

Amd rDNA2 is coming November, Nvidia will clean house with GPU upgraders.

let's look how this goes. gross margins of gaming GPUs will be lower than with turing on this new node with the stated prices. and they already took 80% of TAM before that. only 20% left to gain from AMD.
on the other hand stock markets do very strange things sometimes.

 

[daninthemix]

I know the official name is the RTX3090, but if it's ok with everyone I'm just going to call it the PS5 Punisher.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

When is the Marbles game going on sale?

 

[Amey]

Looks fake to me.
Like Intel hyperthreading these are probably "virtual" cores.
Real ones are 1/2

It's not their first time. Remember Fermi to Kepler jump?
Largest Fermi gtx580 GF110 520mm2 40nm -> 512 CUDA Cores
Largest Kepler gtx780ti GK110B 561mm2 28nm -> 2880 CUDA Cores

 

[DanEON]

I am curious about NVIDIA Reflex. Will we need new monitors for it??

 

[b0uncyfr0]

I dont buy it, these numbers are too good to be true.

 

[Bryank75]

Sony should go with Nvidia next time... just a thought.

Anyone else going PC & PS5?

 

[Orta]

I won't be getting one but todays price/performance ratio makes the inevitable 3060 an intruiging prospect for anybody building a budget pc.

2080 performance for three hundred notes?

 

[psorcerer]

It's not their first time. Remember Fermi to Kepler jump?
Largest Fermi gtx580 GF110 520mm2 40nm -> 512 CUDA Cores

Yup. The problem with NV (and MSFT) they have zero real numbers in their presentations only marketing inflated bullshit...

 

[Journey]

they used it as a comparison point. because Microsoft started using GPU TFLOP performance comparisons for their raytracing performance (which is easier to visualise for many compared to Nvidias former GigaRay numbers)

the Series X's RT cores have the raytracing performance of a 13TF GPU, as in you would need a 13TF GPU in order so simply calculate the ray intersections that the RT cores can do... and these new Ampere cards also use that metric now to advertise their RT performance

Thanks, makes sense now, I was like why is he using Xbox as a reference point. I found the comment, he says that the RT Cores effectively are a 34TF shader and Turing has an effect 45TF while ray tracing. for comparison Xbox Series X has an effective 25TF while ray tracing.

Anyone else going PC & PS5?

You won't find too many in here giving a toss about a PS5.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Sony should go with Nvidia next time... just a thought.

Anyone else going PC & PS5?

Yep. Just like the last generation. PC and a PlayStation.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Which card are you getting?

 

[Bryank75]

I know you don't...you leave a laughing face emoji on every PlayStation post I make. Are you the thread rep?

 

[Night.Ninja]

I don't even care about pcs but that's how you sell a product. I'm actually interested in building a pc now

 

[H4ze]

Yessss, can't wait to get my hands on a 3080, my GTX1070 was always very good to me, but its time has definitely come.

 

[PhoenixTank]

Pouring one out for the 2080Ti homies.

 

[Journey]

Yep. Just like the last generation. PC and a PlayStation.

Microsoft was first in that partnership with the OG Xbox. GeForce 3 was a beast!

 

[Orta]

I know you don't...you leave a laughing face emoji on every PlayStation post I make. Are you the thread rep?

 

[Alexios]

Fuck you with those prices nvidia, lmao. Will they also come out with a $3000 Titan since the 3090 isn't that?

Hope all the ryzen money gets amd to compete in the mid/high gpu, that is pre-ryzen intel behavior from nv.

I got my 1080 non ti for like ~500 before miners caused the supply shortages, I aint paying much more for such.

 

[psorcerer]

Which card are you getting?

Dunno yet. I would probably go for 3090. But it seems kinda strange (30->36TF only, yet 2x RAM and 740->936 RAM BW)
I have a feeling that "midgen refresh" is pretty close by, probably next year.
Kinda on the fence right now.

 

[Reindeer]

3060 will probably be on par with next gen consoles but have additional advantages like DLSS and better RT and come at $300-350, so much for PC gaming being a lot more expensive.

 

[RoboFu]

70 to 80 percent performance boost, that's crazy

even a 50% increase would be great but averaging around 70 is really nice!

 

[Irobot82]

Digital Foundry kinda put the squash to Nvidia's marketing numbers. 3080 sits around 60-75% faster than the 2080.

 

[Entroyp]

Sony should go with Nvidia next time... just a thought.

Anyone else going PC & PS5?

That would be me. I was waiting for AMD and Nvidia to show their cards, but I guess AMD is out of the picture now.

Now I’m waiting for Zen 3 to release To put a nice rig together with a 3080.

PS4/5, Switch, and PC... gaming heaven.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

I know you don't...you leave a laughing face emoji on every PlayStation post I make. Are you the thread rep?

Ignore it my friend. Welcome back to the PC. If you choose so.

 

[Mister Wolf]

Digital Foundry kinda put the squash to Nvidia's marketing numbers. 3080 sits around 60-75% faster than the 2080.

That's huge.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Not an insignificant jump. Better than the last several gens if I recall.

 

[Siri]

So will a 700 watt PSU manage the 3090? (9900k)

 

[GHG]

70 to 80 percent performance boost, that's crazy

Can we expect any other videos like this or did they only send it to DF?

 

[ZZZZ]

Absolutely, but there are certain people on GAF that have been proclaiming a magic SSD made their favorite box more powerful than PCs.

Yeah that would leave you with 150 bucks for everything else. Is that what you are trying to state? Really?

 

[ThisIsMyDog]

8K is here?

 

[Siri]

That's huge.

60-75% is unprecedented.

 

[Bryank75]

Ignore it my friend. Welcome back to the PC. If you choose so.

Thank you, after all the shit I talk that is very kind!

It will be fun, I can't decide whether to build or buy...I kinda want the fun of ordering the pieces and putting that personal touch but the convenience of Alienare and the aesthetic of their new rig is nice.

 

[Rentahamster]

Can we expect any other videos like this or did they only send it to DF?

I hope this is just the first of many today. Otherwise, Rich got some juicy early access which is impressive.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Bo_Hazem

WTF you want?

 

[Ivory Blood]

Gotta admit, I'm a bit salty with my 2080s, but I bought for the price of 3070 a year ago and it will last me some time still, so... guess I'll wait for 3080ti.


The gains are incredible though, applause to Nvidia.

 

[Red-Town]

My Lian Li XL is ready for the 3090
