Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

I haven't pushed the memory on the card yet so should get some more out of that I could push the CPU more also but without a delid temps are fine at 4.9 but 5.0 needs a voltage bump and knocks on 90deg with synthetic tests.

My bad, I meant RAM at 4000mhz. Overclocking memory on the card is almost pointless. I would recommend a delid if temps are a concern as I did get quite a drop in temps, that said an extra 100mhz prob isn't worth holding your warranty for. I upgrade quite often so I don't usually care for warranty.
 
You are obsessed with arguing.

Only when I see things posted that are wrong. Take a look at the last few pages, how many people have quoted you on your bs statements? I'm ending any further replies to you now. We know you won't be buying one of these, you're just bored.
 
Hey at least no one has said he is not welcome in this thread and havw tried to have a discussion with him rather than out right say your not welcome here so stop posting as this is an Amd thread and only pro Amd folk have an oppinion here, that is what happened to me.

Nvidia threads seem a lot more laid back lately.

I assume that person got banned?
 
Cheap ass enthusiast? Outdated hardware enthusiast?
Some people are in the wrong threads.
I am most definitely a hardware enthusiast. I have had a vr hmd since mid 2014, have a high spec racing wheel and peddles and a hotas flight system.... And if I really wanted I could buy one of the new quadros withought using credit (admittedly not the 10k one ;) )

But that does not mean i do not want to get value for money out of my gear. If I think something is good price per performance it will increase my enjoyment from it.

All that said given what I have seen benchmark wise, unless the main sites are all wrong I am not sure how jigger reaches the conclusions he does ... But his opinion is as valid as mine and if he is happy going AMD and thinks they are better than NV the more power to him
 
These cards have a short life before 7nm GPUs at the end pf next year, so if Nvidia want a full line up they will get released pretty quickly.

A year used to be the norm before chants for the next gen started. If 7nm is 12-15 months away then I wouldn't call these cards as having a short life :P

See thats what happens with Gavin. It all centres around the fallacy that AMD aren't competitive, when even with late arriving and under performing cards AMD are still very competitive.

For me personally a choice between a Vega64 and 1080Ti would be difficult. I could save a little money with the Vega, get a more forward looking chip and use Freesync. VS spend more on the Ti and get raw performance but at 60Hz.

Also spending £500 on a graphics card for gaming 1-2 nights a week isn't money well spent regardless of what kind of salary I make.
 
Releasing the 2080ti along with the other, lower spec cards, says a couple of things to me...

1 - 2080 isn't all that impressive and they still wanted to get the wow factor, so release the ti and base all the facts and figures on those cards.

2 - Nvidia don't know what AMD are doing with 7nm and want to make sure all bases are covered just in case there's a cat watching all the pigeons and ready to pounce.

:D

3: stockmarket/ shareholders/revenue performance .

Yes they made record profits with miners but tanked sooner the. Expected and it's good to keep up the hype till the end of the year . Release the hounds at the start, keep pushing it up - if you need something Q1 next year then Titan and another one after that along with lower tier models :)

Nvidia are pleasing gamers, helping companies but have to please shareholders more

All the Nvidia fans in here have always slated AMD for having forward looking cards with features that are hardly used and yet, now that Nvidia are bringing ray-tracing to their new line up, arguably a forward looking feature, they are all reacting like it's the second coming. Hypocrisy at it's finest :D
 
4: Jensen needs a new jacket of supple human skin and he owes the human traffickers copious amounts of money; babies don't grow on trees.

I'll admit that the other three reasons are more likely. Just.

Thye do know, AMD has nothing that can even approach 2080Ti for the next 2 years basically. Vega 7nm is for AI only because it's expensive, Navi is for med rang GPUs. NVIDIA is only competing with themselves.

Nope, 2080 is ~10% faster than 1080Ti, or about equal to TitanXP. 2080Ti is faster than TitanV. Or 40% faster than 2080.

The other 3 might be more likely but I like your option the best, just has the right amount of Bond villainy in there, which suits Nvidia's glorious leader perfectly :D

And you're stating all these FACTS based solely on all the RUMOURS you've read online??? Wow, you must be some kind of sorcerer to conjure up the spirit world to provide you with all these pearls of wisdom :P

Trouble is, when AMD do it the performance is poor unless the devs specifically code/adjust for AMD.

With the 2000 series, this ray-tracing stuff is literally just icing on the cake. The gaming performance without ray-tracing is still going to be there. Devs can use the ray-tracing stuff for a bit of extra bling, but it's entirely optional.

If the 2000 series play games without ray-tracing only slightly better than before, we'll mostly all slate them. In other words, if it only has significant extra perf in ray-traced games, we'll slate it. Guaranteed (but this won't happen :p)

Yeah, some of the poster here are hilarious. Especially the ones that can't remember they spent 20 posts arguing the opposite side of a topic a few weeks backs. Sometime even days.

Anyway I just hope these cards bring a much needed increases to £200-300 bracket. That should help make the consoles look a little less inviting.

Nvidia plan to flood that price bracket with 3 versions of 2060s, a DDR4, DDR5 and DDR6 all with different specs to keep everyone guessing what's in the box until they get home. Just to stop any confusion and make everything transparent :P
