That's the same reaction I have just thinking about one.
They likely cant even meet demand for these cards.If that's true, not having a mid range card to put against the consoles with the 3060 being next year feels like a mistake.
these top end cards don't match the alleged geekbench scores. so I'm kinda questioning which are real
The GameTesseract.A quick search says that the GameCube was 9.4 gigaflops. If I did my math right, the rumored specs of the 3080ti would make it a 28.67 teraflop card. That would mean (again, if my math is right, which it might not be because it's late at night and I'm tired) that you'd need 3050 GameCube's duct taped together to get the power of this rumored card. What I'd like to know is how many meters of duct tape that would require.
I've never owned a Ti, but I may try to sell my 1080 to help pay for this one. Stop assuming everyone who plans on getting this is rich. My GPU is from 2016 and I've saved up more than enough for long enough.I hope all those Ti rich people are just gonna sell their 2080Tis for like nothing becasue who cares. Sorta happened when I got my used 980Ti which I'm still rocking
It was actually never word, apparently they are just gonna announce the architecture and the higher end Quattro stuff
Same.Gonna build a Ryzen 4000 + RTX 3070 PC on September or as soon as both things are available if they take longer than that. Can't wait!
Of course the markets are competing. Both the PC & console market fulfil the same purpose. Your argument is pretty much that there's no overlap between these markets but that's just plain wrong. People move between the two markets all the time. Speaking for myself I prefer gaming on PC but if the value is so awful on PC then I'll just not upgrade and switch to consoles for the next 3 years until PC has caught up. I assume lots of people are going to have to weigh that decision.Again, the market isn't even really competing. It's always been like this, so your "sweating" comment doesn't make any sense. Yes, I have a 1080 Ti, and those that don't? Why pick a console over just buying a 2080 for a similar (or even less) price when the consoles actually launch? If I did not have a 1080 Ti, and I wanted to play next-gen games in the best way possible for $500, I would still pick a dedicated GPU every time. If I did not already have a gaming PC, there's no contest. That same $500 is absolutely better spent on a console, but I already said as much in my previous reply.
On top of that, buying the consoles right at release has historically never been worth it, and they are usually purchased by those who want the latest and greatest, or if the system actually ships with a killer app, and those who don't even game on PC in the first place. The base models of the consoles get revisions and manufacturing improvements over the launch versions a year or two later also, which is another reason it's worth waiting.
Buying a PS5 or Xbox wouldn't be for the multiplat performance at launch anyway, it would be for any exclusives if you are already gaming on PC, unless you are on really old hardware. It will also take at least a year and a half before we get out of the cross-gen stuff and they focus solely on next-gen, and by that point Nvidia, and maybe even AMD will have released something more powerful for $500 that mops the floor with the base versions of the new consoles.
The biggest reason to buy a $500 console instead of just buying a card that will give you the same, if not arguably more raw graphics performance would be the SSDs, and even that is suspect until the games are launched that can show a clear advantage with loading assets over what is currently available right now on PC.
I know that, I think the gap is wide enough to give me pause. In addition to that, there has been some people bringing up the veracity of this chart in other threadsThe geekbench cards are most likely Tesla and Quadro cards. The ram config gives it away. Tesla V100 PCIE has same 32GB as the 124CU card. Tesla V100 SXM2 has 16GB, looks like they upped it to 24GB for the 118CU card. Finally the 108 CU card is the Quadro with 46.8GB, Turing Quadro, RTX 8000 has 48GB.
I wonder if they'll trickle the RT down to the lower end parts or continue the GTX 1660 route and cut it again.Just noticed that even the supposed 3060 has 20% more RT cores than the 2080 ti. Could bode pretty well for performance.
These new cards can't come soon enough. I'm struggling with this 970.
They likely cant even meet demand for these cards.
The 3060s will be w/e ends up in the junk pile from the 3070/80, and it will filter down even further eventually, but they are probably getting 85%+ of the cards to be a 3070+.
Maybe they then will drop the price of the 2070/2070 super to move it to the mid-range? Still think having only a 2060/2060 super in that segment while the next gen consoles most likely will be MUCH better than those cards would be a potential weak spot for nvidia.

I keep looking at that 3050 number and I feel like it's probably wrong, but I'm too tired to figure it out at the moment. Maybe in the morning if no one has corrected me, lol.
Guess those 3080 Ti specs are what's possible with another massive chip but on 7nm. Hope it's consumer-prized and not like 3000 bucks
how much used Ti's go for ? Cause im thinking same , my wallet is gonna cry thoThat Ti spec right out of the gate for new node would be insane, but as node matures? Maybe not so out there, NV is good about squeezing blood out of their nodes.
Also if that rumored Ti spec is even in same area code as final card then that will replace my 2080Ti in instant.

I paid £1200 lol. so maybe half ?Edit: "Used", lear to read Tov
It really depends when you sell. If after 3000 announced and lower end cards match 2080Ti? Be prepared to cut down hard
