And it's still a $700 stock card beating a $1200 overclocked card.

It's not $1200 once you add in the cost of the watercooling components.

Houston, We have a problem




Um, 28 FPS in Fortnite using a 3080 at 4K? Shouldn't the 3080 give you DLSS performance of 73 FPS by default. Then DLSS gives you like 100+ on top of that??? This is fortnite we talking here...It's already tuned well for nvidia.

The above, IMHO, is the perfect example of a vram (among other) bottleneck with open world/sandbox games using RT. Something I've been pounding on before.

I don't think that's the case here. Remember, UE4 is very heavy with RTX:

Im sure some Tis were £1300+, like the Anus, so couple of years later, you're getting a card with more vram, that destroys it, for not much more in some cases.

in the same way some 3090 like Asus are £1850. And some 3080 are going to be $999, the same as the list price of the 2080ti was

you can on,y compare msrp and the 3090 is 50% more. Fact.

Well the 2080 Ti founders was actually $1199.

$999 2080 Ti was pretty much a fantasy.

I thought Jensen called the 2080Ti a $1200 card in the 3000 reveal video?

It was initially listed as "from" $999, then at some point bounced upto it's current price. That seems to have went relatively unnoticed.

If so that doesn't bode well for the 3000 series cost effectiveness.

notice how the rtx3080 is priced "from $699"

haha wat chi the prices climb!

Well its £1149 for the FE 2080TI on Nvidia.com so with whatever $/£ method they use, probably correct.

Because they also list AIB cards on their site.

Anyone think we'll see the double ram cards before christmas? That would make the EVGA step up promotion worth thinking about.

It looks like a 12gb version would be pretty plug-n-play for Nvidia (I see two blocks that are different from the others). Give them time to build up yields and something with more cores or simply higher stock clocks should be easy too. Depending on what AMD do, it might also be priced well. I'm leaning toward buying a 3080, but I expect better versions to follow at some point. AMD will probably influence how soon.

Dependant on AMD announcing a challenger to the 3070 & 3080 with more VRAM.

 

[chroniclard]

Not fussed about RT or 4k, just want as near as double 1080 GTX normal performance @ 1440p.

 

[JohnG7]

Same but 1080Ti/Titan Xp x2.

 

[AMDPower]

Coming thick and fast these

I raise you

It makes no sense at all to release in just a few months cards with 16GB / 20GB of ram when the series has just released.

I expect we might see cards with more vram when they do the refresh with a Super in about 12 months time.

The 2000 series Supers launched 10 months after the initial 2000 series so I cannot see Nvidia cheesing off their customers who buy a 3070 or a 3080 by releasing new cards mere months later.
