You’ve seemed very upset lately sir, hope all is well. That’s not the case at all but I don’t get the impression that matters to you.

It’s a first party Amazon sold and curated pre-listing that got made public accidentally with a placeholder price. I explained everything in my post that you quoted. No one is getting stuck with anything. I’m not interested in discussing further, however I do truly hope you’re doing well.

I really want to see reviews come out and some side-by-side comparisons of Turing cards versus Ampere cards. Like, real tests, not the weird mostly meaningless charts Nvidia has put out so far. Just the axis labeling on the release charts makes my brain itch. From where I'm at I don't see doing another GPU upgrade for a while, like maybe next summer. Since I already have a 2070 Super, play at 1440p, and don't care if my framerate is slightly slower than the speed of light, I'm thinking I won't have much of a compelling reason to update. It seems to me Nvidia has been surprisingly supportive of older cards and newer tech, like enabling RT on Pascal cards (even if it generally was not feasible). It seems within the realm of possibility that after releasing Ampere they'll release drivers which actually increase Turing performance, too, even if that's not the main intent.

Yeah, we all want to see the real reviews. Too bad it doesn't sound like they're coming out in time to really be able to use them to decide what to get out of the first wave of cards. I think you're right that, at least for games supporting DLSS and RTX, Turing will have a longer life than we expected.

repiv posted:turing also has the full dx12 ultimate feature set, which has been neglected so far but should start seeing use as games begin to target to new consoles I think the first game to demonstrate these performance gains is Minecraft RTX beta. It recently got upgraded to DXR 1.1 support and the performance gains are massive, up to like 50% from what I've seen on my card. It's also really buggy and crashing a lot now, but that's why it's a beta.

The biggest game release of the year has DLSS support and as long as it’s easy to implement I have no doubt other large and smaller titles are gonna support it going forward.

After buying a 3080 I am gonna be so irked when one of my 400 retro shooters that run @ 300fps won't allow me to use DLSS. What is there even to talk about? With the supported cards performance at the only sane PC resolution - 1440p, the only reason you need DLSS is because RTX tanks your framerate and what dev is going to implement raytracing without DLSS ?

So you can get much better performance per watt by power-limiting the card. The problem with that is that you're leaving some performance on the table; performance you paid for.

Looking forward to buying a cheap 3080 when the 4000 series launches and there are maybe 1-2 games finally out that need it.

They have to get the game logic to run on consoles with decade-old laptop jaguar CPUs, I think overall CPU usage will be a bit more soft than most are expecting. Perhaps there may be an option for more NPCs in the world and such for those with beefier systems.

It's almost as if GPU tech and Game engine tech is constantly moving forward and there will always be new things. This is expected and known, it's not gonna be a shock to anybody.

Which isn't impossible but would be real wierd.

Incessant Excess posted:RDR2 will likely struggle today, as will cp2077 I imagine. I can't find it right now but there is a 3080 bench with RDR2 and it just about averages 4K60 on max settings. That's honestly not bad all things considered; the game is the most demanding on the market. My 1080ti can only do medium at 1440p. edit: it wasn't a bench, it was an nvidia rep on reddit explaining why the 3080 has 10GB of memory, he said that despite that amount it still runs games such as RDR2 at 4K from 60 to 100fps. https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/ilhao8/nvidia_rtx_30series_you_asked_we_answered/ Zedsdeadbaby fucked around with this message at 13:27 on Sep 6, 2020 |

I believe those benches and that person are referring to the highest preset, rather than manually setting every option to maximum which is higher still.

there's still a decent performance delta between different cards at a given resolution, and a delta between a single card across resolutions i mean the point of getting a beefy GPU is to be able to brute force games that are poorly optimized
