Yes some of the custom AIB's are using 8 pin, and specifically from your picture, the EVGA FTW3 is using 3x 8 pin.
Only 3090 supports Nvlink this gen. Jensen doesn't want you to combine that crazy value of two 3080's. (Tbf most games don't work with SLI nowadays)
Just doing math, shows that the 3090 (outside of 8K and VRAM usage and bandwidth constraints) is 20% faster. So it can only be at best 20%, likely a little less. But hey you get to pay $800 more than the 3080! Its not good value for gamers.
I will have nightmares now thank you
I don't see how when they are offering a 2080 Ti for $500, you see this as a bump in prices. You gotta stop focusing on the names and focus on the performance per dollar.
Your gpu dumps hot air into your case. This isn't really different.
No, RTX Titan is slightly faster than a 2080 Ti, and the 3090 is far faster than a 2080 Ti.
It is confirmed on Nvidia's website, that Founder's Editions are priced at MSRP.
Why not get the 3080? Still a really large upgrade from 2080 Ti, and it isn't kicking you in the nuts with the price.
Only if you don't mind fan blades.
Uh what? How do you see that as exponential? They didn't even start from higher numbers this time, these are the most honest Nvidia's graphs have EVER been.
No, all benchmarks and slides were using a PCIE 3 computer. PCIE4 may provide some benefit, but we assume thats in the range of 1-5%. Not something to lose sleep over, or upgrade your whole computer before you are ready.
You will set your game resolution as 1440p 120hz or 4k 60hz, and then touch DLSS settings separately. And yes, you can always use DSR to supersample, DLSS same thing, but if you want 120hz, its going to be supersampled down from 4k to 1440p. your monitor doesn't give a shit about what the internal resolution is, only the frame presented to it.
It is a card for people who are prosumer and are using RTX Titan's to upgrade to. It's not a good value for a gaming card. Its at BEST 20% more performance, starting at $800 more. Gonna be even more than 1500 for AIB 3090s.
Reference board is only 1x HDMI 2.1, some custom boards are adding an extra.
Jensen literally called you out in the video and said it was ok for you to now upgrade.
Nice!
Of course this is true, unless we are all just a simulation, or a hallucination of an alien.
Thank you! I feel so good that I sold it when I did ^_^
Ye of little faith.
I was able to turn off the RGB shit on 2080Ti FTW3, I have no reason to expect you can't this time.
Only the reference board. The FTW3 is a 2.75 slot beast. And the reason for this, is because one, they want you to pay more for the better FTW3, and two, some people can't fit more than 2 slot cards in their case and they still want to have a 3090 for them, without having them to go watercooling route.
100%. Custom AIB's already have shown us that some of them have added an extra HDMI 2.1
Going off steam, only 0.88% of people had a 2080 Ti.
So yeah $500 buys you more gaming power than 99% of computers currently have. What a time to be alive :)
This guy is fucking insane and full of shit. Watch Digital Foundry if you want some real information.
Digitial Foundry has a limited benchmark right now for 3080. Watch the video, its good!
Don't waste your money on the 3090, it is at BEST 20% faster than a 3080 at 4k. Not worth paying an extra $800+, you could be getting a PS5 or a new monitor, or half of an LG OLED with that kinda money. Or a whole lotta games!
This is not possible without completely fucking the bandwidth of the card up. It can only be either 10,11,12,20,22,24.... 3080 Ti will be a 12GB card, mark my words.
Unless you have an overclocked 10900k, 650w is enough.
The price is more than double for 20% (at best) of the performance at 4k.
3x 8 pin means you can provide more power to the card, this is useful for overclocking.
Since 8K is 4x worse than 4k, some games will completely shit the bed at that resolution. And then DLSS makes up for it by being fucking incredible and rendering from 1440p to 8k.
Yeah I do feel that 2080 Ti performance on the 3070 for $500 is a bargain. The 3080 has better price / performance than even the 300 so yeah, I would consider it an even better bargain too. I guess if some people really think RDNA2 is about to drop cards with even better prices, you could think otherwise, but I think they should prepare to be dissapointed.

Yup, even the one thing consoles had going for them, Nvidia has them beat.
I'm looking forward to someday having PCIE 4.0 SSD in my system.
8K is 4x the pixels of 4k, and 16x of 1080p. NO game is "easy to run" at 8K. This requires tremendous, tremendous amounts of power and bandwidth.
This is a public misconception about how much a game actually uses for VRAM, and the number you see in MSI Afterburner/Rivatuner, which includes caching.
We can take Flight Simulator 2020 for example, if you use the developer FPS overlay, it will tell you exactly how much the game is using.
On 4K, everything set to Ultra and all sliders to to the right except supersampling, FS2020 only uses 8GB of VRAM!
Everything above that is just the game caching assets that it may or may not need, and they will fill fill fill all that room up with potentially useless data, which is good because unused VRAM is wasted VRAM, but you will not have a performance disadvantage having a 10GB card in 4k gaming even including Next-Gen titles.
TL;DR: 10GB IS PLENTY FOR 4K Next-gen
