repiv posted:This is much more aggressive than the current DLSS Performance profile which renders at quarter resolution (i.e. 4k -> 8k), this is upscaling 1440p to 8k In some ways it makes sense, 8k is well into the range of diminishing returns. They don't need the upscaling to work as well as at 4k. Still though, a 4k to 8k mode would have been nice for comparison's sake.

They haven't said Ultra-Performance is the only option at 8k, the Performance profile may well still be available It sounds like Ultra-Performance won't be available at resolutions lower than 8k though

still very conflicted on whether or not to wait for a 3080ti equivalent or to mash f5 for a regular 3080 on the 17th. if i knew a ti version was coming out within a 6 month window i'd probably wait, but they might just pump out supers in a year and forego the entire ti thing

The 3080 does not have the usual x80 positioning of slightly better than the x70 at a significant price premium. Instead it's positioned more like an x80 Ti, just shy of the big dick product that costs twice as much. That's not to say that there won't be a Ti/Super that beats it out in a year, but that unlike typical x80 products, this one looks like quite a relatively good buy. The positioning of the 3090 reinforces this - Nvidia really can't release a card in 6 months that beats the 3090 for $900, so there isn't a lot of room to beat the 3080 in a way that makes value sense.

Hopper is MCM - a big enough change so they don’t need to worry about artificially separating generations, and the A100 is already on both so it’s not as unlikely as you think. Dropping TDP by a 100W and improving performance would be a big win for a respin.

Yeah I can definitely see this happening if Hopper is going to take longer than Nvidia would like and/or TSMC lets them know that capacity will be available for them. I still doubt it will make the x80 look like a poor value the way x80s typically are, where historically waiting for an x80 Ti would typically give you a huge increase in bang for your buck/sustainable lifetime.

Perfect Potato posted:Same, never going back 100% same. I'll go for one of those 5k ultrawides before I bother with a 16:9 4k. It's just so good for productivity uses, and I don't give a gently caress about my Overwatch competitiveness--basically everything else works well enough that I've never felt it was a problem. That said, if you never need to throw up two or three docs side by side and/or just care about eSports titles, or are price sensitive, 4k would be a better choice.

If you don't follow mountain biking it's kinda hard to explain how hilarious the AMD bike thing is. Big box store bikes have been really terrible for a long time. Over the last couple years they've finally moved to being 20 years out of date low-quality garbage rather than 30 years out of date low-quality garbage. Someone managed to sell AMD some old stock bikes that are too lovely for even Wal-Mart customers at this point as a premium branding opportunity. It's pretty much peak Radeon.

Isn't the entire number going to be upside-down when slotted into a PCIE slot? Edit: in that case, the 8 will be the only thing right-side up!

What's weird is that someone at NVIDIA spent time thinking about this decision. It required work. There would have been meetings with the graphic design department about turning the 8 upside down.

Which I suppose is also kinda on-point for Radeon: re-hashed old tech that somehow is still an ok deal. Not that they're good bikes, but more that everything that's actual quality is being sold for stupid amounts. People in my area have been selling two year old used $500 bikes for $700+ and getting multiple people asking about them. It's nuts.

"Hinweis: Die angegebenen Preise sind noch nicht final." (Prices are not final) Ordering will be available on the 17th at 3:00 pm. Goddamn, I don't need one, but I want one. Looking at the Gigabyte 3080 Gaming OC 10G, since their 2070 Super Gaming OC was super solid for the year I have been using it now. But I just realized even the official site does not have info on card length, so I will have to wait for that info to trickle down. mcbexx fucked around with this message at 23:53 on Sep 7, 2020 |

The 3080 is real tempting but I have to say it's ridiculous for me to want to buy a card 3 years later that has less VRAM than the one I have now (10 vs 11). Almost want to go for the 3090 just to avoid that entirely since I noticed Flight Sim is really creeping up at the limits of my 1080ti's VRAM
