Nvidia ,Rtx2080ti,2080,(2070 review is now live!) information thread. Reviews and prices

[happy medium]

Any CPU scaling benchmarks? Would be interesting to see how things have changed, now that we are less bottlenecked by the GPU @ 4K

My guess us first generation, Ryzen will bottleneck these gpu's @ 1440p .



This is your second post talking about Ryzen bottlenecking this brand-new card.
Stop with the Ryzen talk, You want to talk Ryzen? Make a thread.
Just not here.
This is off-topic posting.

Why the RTX Ray tracing series?
My guess, to separate console gaming from PC gaming.
Next gen console launches with Ryzen /Vega cpu/GPU, with no Ray tracing,or best case Ryzen Navi still with no Ray tracing.
,

That is a very conservative assumption. A more aggressive architecture would be ARM/NVidia including RTX. You would gain the efficiency advantage of both ARM and NVidia to get to higher performance levels given that both power and die-size has a reasonable limit for consoles.
Of course a potential Ryzen/AMD combination will not have raytracing.

I doubt XBox/PS will go with nVidia, it'd be too expensive... AMD can be bargained with.

Zotac 2080Ti AMP! edition is priced at $1700 in my country. Founder's edition is $1500. Yes it isn't Nvidia's fault that taxes are high and currency value is bad but its this is still ridiculous. 1080Ti however is available for $900.

Not sure what you expected.

I expect nothing. Merely noted that a review exists and summarized couple graphs within.

Upgrade your computer with Windows 10.

Why anyone would use linux when you can just run linux in Windows 10 is beyond my comprehension.

"upgrade"? "just run"?

Please, do not explain those.

Any benches with the new driver? Reviewers used an older driver.

also obviously running in a VM works as well.

It's probably the same...

Would going to a 3440x1440p gsync be any difference for me with a 2080ti compared to my 27 inch 1440p gsync? Or should I just get a 4k screen? Or cancel the 2080ti lol.

I remember when we had new reviews with every driver release.

Many people will certainly want to get started on the "Pascal and Maxwell are crippled" theories.

I made that jump early last year and I love the UW. My 1440p ROG is on my backup computer now. The FOV is really good and it's easier for the GPU to push pixels than on a 4K screen.

Ray tracing Tech in Game is still young.I will wait 2022 or more.

Why are the StarWars RT / Infiltrator demos not available for the general public? Tried to reach out to an NV contact but went silent when I requested help a week or so.

They will be available on NVIDIA's site soon.

Thanks for the info! I just hate being late on everything.

Not sure what you expected.

2080 Ti is CPU bottle-necked on top priority windows 10 drivers.

You expected less CPU bottleneck on no priority linux compatibility drivers?

Upgrade your computer with Windows 10.

Why anyone would use linux when you can just run linux in Windows 10 is beyond my comprehension.

Because native linux is 30% more efficient than windows 10. Running linux under windows 10 would totally negate that,. At least in many applications, including F@H

Why don't you like your current monitor? Too small? Resolution no longer looks good to you? I'd probably figure out the widescreen vs the 4k myself as I'm the one that would have to live with it in the end. Depending on what games you play the extra FOV might be of benefit in the end and might wind up making the upgrade feel more worth it too you. Do you have anyplace close to you to see the monitors in question or at least similar examples?

The 2080Ti pre-order demon is best fought alone.

The context was obviously running 2080 Ti with the least CPU bottleneck.

If you are running random other crap 99% of the time then you should look into having multiple computers due to trying to manage the time-share anyways or at the very least dual boot.

Buying a 2080 Ti for Linux Gaming is just stupid when you can use the far superior Windows 10.

Linux reality distortion bubble members are of course never going to be convinced of that, but someone has to say it.

I've given up on keeping up with hardware for the next few years. Between Intel's recycled uarch and this stunt fron nvidia, I'm getting a new hobby until the market gets a bit more fresh. I'm probably going to buy a sporty car instead.

Of course a potential Ryzen/AMD combination will not have raytracing.

No way MS/Sony would break backwards compatibility and switch to an entirely different architecture. By staying x86/AMD GPU every current game will run on the next gen hardware. And MS especially won't because so many games are sold for XBox and Windows 10 side by side. They need to stay on the same architecture to keep R&D costs down.

 

[IntelUser2000]

Everyone is complaining about the performance of the 2080 vs 1080Ti but if you can run an engine at 1440p and get 4k output using DLSS for free then it blows the 1080Ti away..

It's not free though. It'll bring blur like post processing AA.

If the 2080 Ti can barely reach 60 fps with RTX on, then it'll probably take 4000, or even 5000 series to reach that on the xx60 series.

Also, the Founder's Edition is again on the bottom tier for cooling. Loudest, and hottest. As for the video card lineup, the Ti should have been $799, $699 MSRP. And it would have been awesome.

 

[EXCellR8]

The price of NVIDIA's cards will only go up so long they're on top. I mean the 2080ti sold out even before reviews were posted. If people buy them up why would they lower the price? I'm sure they don't care nearly as much about comparisons to previous products because to them everything is "new" and "revolutionary." They are truly masters of selling a product I will give them that.

 

[Paul98]

I am looking forward to more high res images of DLSS, some parts of those images look more detailed than even without AA, other areas slightly less. I hope we see more comparison shots on some other games soon. Also where is a good review of performance of DLSS vs no AA?

 

[jpiniero]

FWIW, someone ran the Star Wars RT demo on a 1080 Ti... ~4 fps. Wonder if the demo would let you disable using the RT cores.

Since linix is 30% more effective, then Windows is NOT far superior, just more popular.
