PleasureKevin posted:obviously nVidia is just going wild creating price tiers to motivate buying pricier cards. *80 series cards are not the top tier card anymore, Ti cards are. not new, but TI's are treated like *90's and *80's are mid-range from the start. what's the best current or, as much as is known, the upcoming bang for the buck card? i remember poo poo like visiontek geforce TI 4200 being incredible bang but i dont think deals like that exist anymore? my 970 i think was pretty good bu tits showing its age, im not interested in 4k ultra everything, but i'd like to run 1080p 144hz on high settings in most games f possible and this usually struggles to keep over 90 at medium+ settings. are amd cards still really bad or are they actually viable again? i remember like 2008-2016 ish or something they were pretty awful

I need a new card because my 980 TI is so heavy that it's bending downwards and it's eventually going to break or something.

i have a 1080 ti. the performance boost over a regular 1080 isnt that much unless ur gaming at 4k, in which case it’s very large for some reason if vanilla 1080s start getting cheap, that will be a good option for 1080p gaming

is there anything cool to do with these fancy cards as a dev bad at art? i keep hearing about cuda stuff being good for machine learning (and cryptography but i dont really have that many secrets to encrypt) maybe buying a massive graphics card for videogames will finally motivate me to get into kaggle i also like that they have a bunch of displayport 1.4 connectors for 5k to 8k screens but im skeptical that windows can use them without making the fonts and everything else look like crap

i bought a 1080ti several months back from - the guy had two different brands in stock, one about 100 usd cheaper. I asked why and he said "this one only has hdmi, no dvi or vga" so i guess if I get forcibly time-warped back to the 1980's i'll have to buy a new video card so i can plug in my vga monitor.

I got a1080 quite a while ago before the Bitcoin people blew the market up and I don't see a reason to upgrade Didn't Nvidia dump a ton of inventory on all the oems They should probably start fire sales on the 10 whatever line at some point

probably part of the reason the new cards are so expensive is so the 10 series can hold their prices and still be part of the lineup. a 1080 is still ridiculously good

i considered building a gaming pc (even ordered the i7) with one of these rtx cards but i think ill save myself the trouble. apparently thunderbolt on macs will soon allow 4x 1.4 displayport streams im hoping that upgrade makes it to the october event. then i can buy an imac with a sweet 5k display built in and not deal with the crappy windows software. i dont expect nvidia and apple to ever make up but im sure that whatever garbage amd card in there will be fine. poty fucked around with this message at 06:42 on Sep 20, 2018 |

either way there seems to be little reason to buy a 2080 over a 1080, raytracing seems to be the differentiator, but buying into that sort of tech first-gen largely never pays off. 50/50 whether it is a dead-end implementation (possibly with another raytracing take with slightly incompatible primitives taking over) or whether the first title to make significant use of it (i.e. regularly feature it in gameplay rather than have one room with a shiny statue seated above a pool of water surrounded by a checkerboard floor) requires at least a 3080, or i guess 4080 or whatever is consistent with 980 -> 1080 -> 2080, to run acceptably largely determined by the route next-gen consoles take either way, little point buying into any hardware that doesn't just do things the consoles can do, except faster and at higher resolution
