We all know it's not a full review, there is no need to keep repeating that like it is somehow news to everyone. It's just an indication of the performance improvement over the 2080 and is the closest to some solid comparison info that we have yet seen.Not sure what you're replying to, but I never said or suggested that they would or should let one person release all benchmarks. They let DF do the video to show some information, the positives if you will, so people feel they have independent verification that the cards are fast (which they are). The video communicated the very best scenario (avg. 80% perf increase), but nothing else. Great PR for Nvidia, but I will reserve judgement til the full reviews are available, that's all.

hahaha. Funniest thing I have read all day, cheers !
Hi all! It may be too early to ask this question since they've only just revealed the cards, but I've gotten caught up in the excitement of the initial performance figures and surprisingly reasonable pricing so wanted to ask!
I've been thinking about upgrading my 1070 since getting a 4K projector, but I'm not quite ready to upgrade my whole system, which is centred around an i7 4770k and 16GB of DDR3. The system is still great for 1080p, but I'd love to make better use of the new projector and actually run newer games in 4K - Days Gone and Final Fantasy VII Remake on the PS4 Pro look really sharp on the projector compared with PC games that I've been stuck running at lower resolutions.
Obviously this CPU and RAM wouldn't be the best match for a 3080, but is there any reason to think that the imbalance would cause any actual problems as opposed to just holding back the full performance of the card? With 4K being the point, would the GPU mainly be the limiting factor anyway? I've looked at some reviews of a 4770k paired with a 2080ti and although of course it wasn't as good as a modern CPU combination, the performance looked like a great step up with no particular issues at 4K, so unless some aspect of the technology has changed to make it physically incompatible or the imbalance would introduce stuttering or something then hopefully a 3080 would be even better?
Upgrading the GPU seems like a much better first step to improve 4K performance than any other individual component, and I'd likely upgrade the rest of my system by some time next year to do it more justice.
I have a 750W 80+ Gold Corsair HX dating back to my original build in 2013 if that helps to know.
I’m thinking of getting a second hand 2070S.
what price should these be 2nd hand this time next month ?
AIB look like they're sabotaged in terms of design IMHO...EVGA card designers really have let themselves go over the past few generations.
Wow, I'm genuinely shocked at the semi reasonable pricing.
I won't be going for one but I'll be happy to snag a cheap used 2080ti at some point!
Kudos to those who sold theirs a month or so for £900!
Jay seems impressed.
Could someone work out the numbers here, how much performance uplift is the 3080 over the 1080ti?

And gets slaughtered in anything RT related.

He's right though you come across as such a bitter person spouting your console nonsense the reality is some people like to game at higher than 30 - 60fps hence high refresh monitors being so popular, some people also like to play RDR2 at 4k higher than medium settings is this so hard for you to comprehend on a PC hardware enthusiasts forum?
Anyway back on topic Pascal price/perf is nothing to scoff at and RTX IO looks like it could be interesting also the DF video showing Doom Eternal without RT and DLSS at 200% over the 2080 looks like performance is going to be very promising in non RT/DLSS titles.
From my maths in non RT and DLSS games about 80- 95% faster.
