Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

I don't know what the performance is going to be like but i am very confident these are going to be £100-£150 more than their respective counterparts from previous launches.

$3000 RTX Titans
$1200 RTX 2080 TI
$899-$1000 for 2080

all simply because of clever marketing, high demand and AMD GPU not competing this time round.With these prices, i am just going to keep my 1080Ti specially if its within 8% of GTX 2080.

make sure you order extra lube this time round boys:D

Ok we know that lots of us on here cannot add up, just like NVidia.;) But with the 1080 founders edition launching at $699 and you reckoning the new cards will be 100-150 more, just how do you arrive at $899-1000.
 
Keep dreaming, the R290's only got to that and less due to them being phased out for the more pricey R290 (eg R390) and there was a glut of the cards in the market due to the first bitcoin bursting
True story.

10 years from now, £250 will still only get you R290 performance.

And the 7080 will be more expensive than a top-end Ferrari. No one here will care tho; everyone will be subsistence farming due to Brexit turning the UK into a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Growing spuds in old shoes, etc.

So I read.
 
Wouldn't pay much more than £750 for it. Anywhete approaching a grand would be insane for the series of card that loses it's value the quickest. xx80s generally a bit of a poisoned chalice as it comes in as the dogs ******** then takes it's place between the 80ti and 70 whereas every other card holds its release value until towards the end of the generation.

Well £150 is appx $200 give or take add that to your $699 and you get near the $899:D

Its just some wild price guess by me, nothing intended.

For whatever the reason might be, i believe we are going to be paying more this time round.

That's why if you want a new series card and then want a Ti card as soon as it comes out, it's probably better to get the xx70 to start with.
 
The only thing you have shown is that the particular game clearly runs better with Nvidia hardware than AMD's, and the GTX970 being "decimated" by both the GTX1060 3GB and GTX1060 6GB when it shouldn't. Thanks for proving my point :p

Its such a hard game to run when an RX570 can run the game at 4K at over 60FPS:

https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Performance_Analysis/Yakuza_0/4.html

TechPowerUp review summary said:
We tested the game using actual gameplay with the latest drivers for AMD and NVIDIA. Generally, Yakuza 0 is very light on hardware requirements and should run well even on older systems. Nearly all the cards we tested were able to deliver 60 FPS at 4K, and Sega was kind enough to include Super Sampling Anti-Aliasing in the settings, which lets you dial up the internal rendering resolution for smoother edges. When paired with a high-end graphics card, the CPU often becomes the bottleneck at lower resolutions despite Ultra settings, so enabling SSAA results in a relatively small performance hit compared to other games because the effects of the CPU bottleneck are mitigated. NVIDIA graphics cards are doing much better in Yakuza 0 than their AMD counterparts, but all these cards will give you a great gameplay experience. VRAM usage is laughable for PC standards because of low-poly models and low-res textures. The game does make use of multiple cores, but beyond four threads, the differences are negligible. Unlike many other titles, a dual core processor is sufficient for a good gameplay experience.
 
700 clams is such a lot of cash. that said, its still cheaper than the PC it goes in, which I think is a good marker of acceptable cost for the high end stuff. Its pushing boundaries at this moment in time so its actually justifying its price. I think 10 series was the overpriced generation but this 20 series, it earns its keep this time right?

I'll eat these words if the 2080 is only 8% better than a 1080ti mind.
 
Well the latest rumour suggests $650 and faster than a Titan V.
Which of course would be lovely and make my next purchase of a 2070 cheaper and faster, than I would have expected.
I don't believe the latest rumour though to be honest.
 
Pascal is dropping in price. OCUK wants you to buy them before the price cut. simples.
They are, but the drops aren't spectacular or even tempting considering what's supposed to be coming. 1070's for £329 isn't so bad, 1070ti doesn't make sense at £400-£450 to me when a 1080 is £469 and there are three different ones to choose from too. 1080ti @£650 still seems overpriced considering the performance gain over the 1080. No one is really going to be buying top end unless there's further significant price drops. I'd like to see the 1080 less than £400 and 1080ti close to £500 then they might start shifting. And become viable for those with a fixed budget too.
 
i hope i dont have to remortgage my house again, ive only just got the bailiffs off of my case from pascal! Asus ROG Extreme Z390, i9-9900k, RTX 2080, Phanteks Evolv X..... so many dreams ..... im also in need of a handgun and a balaclava, anyone?
