NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

[CuriousTomCat]

Yup, they really ****ed over 2080Ti buyers a little eh!!!

Nvidia might **** over 3080 buyers when the 4080 launches in 2 years. This could be the new normal

Seeing firesales of 2080ti's for £500 an hour after the stream aired made me chuckle in to me mug of tea earlier.

I'm going to be waiting for the 3060 to be released as it's a good 2-3 times more powerful than my current card and 30% less power draw than a 1080ti.

Keep an eye on OcUK webshop, I have added quite a few 3000 series cards this evening giving OcUK largest range in UK at present and potentially world.

Pricing is very strong on these new cards, not much word on supply yet but hopefully that will be strong too.

My thinking is a potential repeat of GTX 970 launch where we sold like 10,000 units in first month because it was incredible value and well the 3070 and 3080 are incredible value for the performance and the 3090 is a monster. EPIC CARDS!

3070's are all budget monstrosities for more than nVidia? Are your prices correct?
£649-£799 on a 3080 is puzzling? Please explain.

I feel good about this. 980Ti owner about to get a HUGE upgrade and pay way less than others have done. The wait has paid off big time.

I would have been there with you if my 980ti hadn't incoveniently died last year :'(

If you have the money to buy the top card for every generation the depreceation shouldnt bother you.

That sucks! TBH, over this the last couple of weeks and with Flight Sim I had bad feelings about my 980Ti giving up the ghost. Consistently hitting 92c can't be good for it!

More videos. Nothing new really.

Sorry I've had a look but couldn't find an answer... PCIe3 holding the card back or do we still need to wait? Really wish Intel had PCIe4 support

Wen 3070 landing?

Unlikely. Part of the reason Ampere is so strong compared to Turing is because Turing was weak compared to Pascal. You can't have massive generational leaps every time

Best I can do one handed. It doesn't change during gunfights either, seems very dependent on the scene itself. Apologies that my camera hates the curved display, not much I can do about that.

Edit. Unless I tape the camera to my head I can not play it for 5 mins whilst recording sorry.

The GPU will do 2150 easily too. For some reason it has gone back to stock clocks.

Your settings show 50% render resolution, that's not 1440p.

Is there anyway ocuk can state which cards are reference PCBs on the webstore?

I'll get one (3080) out the gate but need to know I can put an EK/other block on it when available.

Glad there's lots of stock! And Haribo?!

What i can lose on my 2080ti feels like peanuts after the car i bought for 24k and then got offered 16k trade in 11 months & 4000miles later

Wait for reviews but I doubt it'll make any tangible difference.

Where it could matter is in this RTX IO stuff, be interesting to see what difference it makes there.

 

[CuriousTomCat]

Well it shows the 2080Ti was overpriced, which is what we have been saying for 600 pages..

Nvidia's profits should plummet from 60% if that's the case. Or if profits stay the same then Turing was more expensive to make.

Holy mackerel - That's the news I've been looking for 3080ti spec.

Slightly nerfed 3090 but with a launch price of 1000USD

It's all based on speculation. States it on the page.

Jensen is letting us use our NVME storage as vram.

Not any time soon though.

We’re targeting getting a development preview of DirectStorage into the hands of game developers next year.

Also.

DirectStorage will be supported on certain systems with NVMe drives.

Sounds like we will be on the next gen cards before this is commonly used tech.
