This is gonna be tough honestly. I'm assuming all the AIB cards go live at the same time NVIDIA does. I want an EVGA card, but I might just be F5'ing tabs and getting whichever one enters my cart first. I hate limited stock stress.

I’m kinda torn as to which one I’ll end up getting. I think it’s going to come down to which one I can pre-order/buy first because I’m already 100% convinced these are going to immediately sell out and it’ll be hell to buy one if I don’t open palm slam the buy button on the first one I have a chance to.

Looks like the 3070 won't come with an AIO from EVGA, so I guess I'll be looking to try and get a 3080. It's fine, I didn't want to have money anyway.  I'll need a new monitor eventually, but that'll have to be down the road a bit.

Might end up being forced to buy a 3090 just because the 3080 will all be sold out as soon as the button is available. My decision flowchart is like this: 3080 AIB or Founders Edition If AIB I'll buy EVGA for customer service EVGA FTW or AIO Hybrid? There is ZERO information on how each of these perform (and sound) and waiting for that information could very well leave me waiting until January for a new card.

so re: me making GBS threads on VESA and saying that they let DisplayPort 2.0 get way too far behind schedule... guess what isn't in Ampere, and what is from their competitor. DP 2.0 will have to wait until minimum 2021 if not 2022 before there's any hardware to drive it. It's DOA. HDMI 2.1 wins this generation and probably the next generation as well unless they like, drop everything and put out a DP 2.1 standard super fast to catch up.

Zedsdeadbaby posted:Digital Foundry written article, they have a 3080 already as previously mentioned; So these review terms suck, but the good news is that for some sort of indicator, there are 4K benchmarks for these games with the RTX 2080 (although the rigs are different so there will be some variation): Borderlands 3 - +81.6% - 87fps vs. 157.9fps Doom Eternal - +84.2% - 105.8fps vs. 194.8fps Shadow of the Tomb Raider - +69.8% - 60.3fps vs. 102.3fps Control - +77.6% - 35.6fps vs. 63.2fps Quake 2 RTX - +92.3% - 30.7fps vs. 59fps Control RTX - +77.6% - sorry couldn't find this with a quick Google  This is pretty incredible stuff for 4k gaming on the 3080 compared to the 2080.

I’m still running a 3570k and 970 because my gaming consists of Diablo 3 at 1440p 60Hz. Am I stupid for considering the 3080 to pair with a new 27” 1440p 144hz monitor? I probably won’t upgrade until next gen Ryzen comes out so I’ll probably try to snag some holiday deals but not finish the build until January.

The DF numbers may be underselling things a bit. The test system is a 10900k which is already slower than a 3950x in a lot of the newest games, and that's before you move to a PCE 4.0 GPU. It's still probably not quite double 2080 performance, but it's a pretty incredible generational leap. The 1080Ti was the last really big 2 year leap, and that was a ~80% performance jump in the most extreme situations (like 4K Doom) but the 1080Ti was also $50 more than the 980Ti. That and the relative proximity to the 3090 and the large gap from the 3070 make the 3080 look like one of those cards that people who buy it are unlikely to regret.

Feelin' pretty  and also rather  about getting an FTW3 2080 for ~$750 instead of going for a 2080Ti. It'll probably end up as the GPU in my parents' system so my father can play the new Flight Simulator...and Pinball FX3. So much Pinball FX3.

I probably won’t upgrade until next gen Ryzen comes out so I’ll probably try to snag some holiday deals but not finish the build until January. If you're only playing D3, your 970 by itself can probably run it at 100+ FPS. A 3080 is ridiculous overkill for that, and will be severely limited in modern games by a 3570K. Probably better to wait until you're ready to upgrade everything.

Hmm, I kind of want an FE, because they look cool. But some of the AIBs seem to have two HDMIs, both 2.1 I presume, which I guess is better future proofing.

Going from a trillion DP ports to one HDMI 2.1 on (most) 3080s is a bummer, especially since the VirtualLink port can't be repurposed. What manufacturers have two HDMI 2.1 ports at this point?

That's like Cookie Clicker: RPG-Lite Edition, like you're one layer of abstraction removed from a rat hitting a button for food for 8 years. No personal offense intended. You could make that argument about a lot of games (to some degree) but Diablo 3 was the one game where after playing it through a couple of times, I realized I was literally just like, doing nothing. Just getting successively smaller dopamine hits for clicking something that is only marginally more interesting or multi-faceted than running through a bunny maze or peeling a banana 1000 times.

Diablo 3, to this day, remains the only good game to ever exist. But now that’s available on the Switch? It’ll continue to be the best good game.

One thing I don't quite get, if Nvidia went all out in a totally different board design and fan arrangement for their own cards why's it no problem for every AIB to be chucking a regular triple fan on it? If it's a marketing gimmick it would be a very expensive one.
