Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

Well they need to still sell their BFGD monitors that are yet to arrive, wouldn't be much point if u could just buy any other hdmi 2.1 chipset TV next year for the same result: 4k 120hz with VRR, nvidia would shoot themselves in the foot, would much rather milk their proprietary sync as long as possible

Does HDMI 2.1 support 4K at 144Hz natively in HDR10 without falling back to using chroma sub-sampling? Interestingly more TVs are starting to include Display Port input and also FreeSync 2, especially at the higher end.
 
Why you want to get him out of console gaming?
80% of the games on PC are console ports, so kinda pointless. Only if he wants to play some PC only games but these are obscure ones like grand strategies (EU4, CK2) etc.
Also might cost you more in the long run and by having no access to PC you have your head safe for all the dodgy things is going to have access to from PC easily compared through console.

Upselling AMD and the HDR performance then backing out when someone says yes I'll buy an AMD card in an Nvidia thread...

HDR at 700nitts still burns your eyes out at 3 meters in a low lit room on scenes that cross from dark to light.
 
HDR old tech?????

I wrote that badly; I’m I’ll. I meant Vega is old tech, it’ll be shortly obsoleted by new Nvidia offerings.

I’m actually a huge proponent of HDR, and my next monitor will have at least HDR400 with FALD. I think once game makers really start pushing the envelope and it finally becomes more mainstream, it will have a huge impact on image fidelity and quality. I cannot wait.

WTF you talking about?
Asked why someone could want to move his son from console to a more expensive platform.
If he is going to play the same games, kinda pointless don't you think?
 
not sure if this is posted before, very interesting link here if these are true

I wonder if Nvidia will release a Titan XP replacement with the full 4608 cores and the 2080TI will have 4352 cores. I know there is a planed RTX TITAN, whatever that might be, that is priced $3000which is a replacement for the TITAN V but that still leaves Nvidia needing a replacement for the Titan XP. But given that the 2080TI is going to be released so soon I wonder if Nvidia will forgot a TItan xp replacement with 7nm AMD cards so close by.

I really hope AMD has something to go up against these new cards, even 10-15% slower I would rather take a AMD card to be honest.

cant wait till Monday.
 
NVIDIA RTX 2070 Specs Leaked – 2304 Cores, 8GB GDDR6 at ~$400

https://wccftech.com/nvidia-rtx-2070-specs-leaked-2304-cores-8gb-gddr6-at-400/

Videocardz sources confirmed RTX 2070 will have 2304 CUDA cores and 8GB GDDR6 but performance is not at GTX 1080 Ti level, only just 8% faster than GTX 1080. When overclocked it could reach GTX 1080 Ti performance level.

The price is huge gap between $400 RTX 2070 and $700 RTX 2080 so a chip with GTX 1080 Ti performance level would be RTX 2070 Ti that do not exist yet probably until 2019.

Guess I will get RTX 2080 so I will have to wait and see.
 
So with the rumoured 2080ti getting released with the others what’s people opinions on way Nvidia have changed from the last series.

I think it is either they have 7mm releasing 2019 and want to get as many sold in the mean time before rumours start or the 2080ti is not the top card anymore.

My gut is telling me it’s that 7mm is coming next year and this series might be short lived.
 
I've got a 1080Ti and a 3440x1440 monitor copes extremely well so I must be barmy looking at the new GPUs and thinking if it's worth considering. It's probably just me worried about the 1080ti plummeting in value. Then again who cares if it serves me well?

If your games run good, then no need to upgrade. 1080 Ti will plummet a little, but it should hold it's value for quite some time yet. If I were you I would skip this gen and wait for the next.


I love this forum, everyone talking about whether to upgrade or not, or whether nVidia is screwing us! Check out the Steam hardware survey nor July 2018 and you’ll see 1080ti owners represent 1.19% of gamers.

https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam

The top #5 are the 1060 (12.5%), 1050ti, 1050, 750ti, and the 960. Given that 6GB of VRAM was only 7% then a lot of those 1060’s must be rocking 3GB of VRAM.

Low to mid-range GPU's have always been king. Not many buy the high end.

+1

Everybody scrambling to buy now. lol:D
 
2070 looks like it'll hit the sweet spot to upgrade my 970...especially if it's fairly efficient.
And if it's only $400 should be a good price here. If 7nm really is next year I'm not sure it's wise to go for a 2080Ti. I might go for the 2070 if it's that good price/perf.. then upgrade next year, being at 1440p i really don't need more atm anyway, can't help but think the Ti would be a big waste for me.

For me I'm just gonna get the ti. Have been waiting since last September to upgrade as people were saying then dont buy now as Volta is round the corner. It's been nearly a year now so you just can't tell. Even if amd release 7nm is it even guaranteed it will beat this new gen? I think the ti is coming now as the cards have all been watered down rather than a gold rush before 7nm
 
They really need to get the pricing correct on the 2070. Not only will it more than likely be their biggest seller, but at only slightly faster than a 1080 - which you can get for closer to £400 than £450 - if it's much over £400 then it is going to be an epic waste of money.

£375-400 max would probably be reasonable.

Agree, Yes mate everyone thinks the RTX 2070 is going to be the godsend of GPU's. :D

False, there wont be no more TVs that will include Display Port, none of new TVs has Display Port.

Some Samsung models has Freesync 2 but these models did not have Display Port, only HDMI 2.0.

Few years ago Panasonic 2015 models had Display Port 1.2 but they are not popular then Panasonic abandoned Display Port probably a year later, none of 2018 Panasonic models has Display Port.

If you want Display Port then get a monitor!

seems to be the case.
none want to stay at 12nm when 7nm happens next year.

If your games run good, then no need to upgrade.



Low to mid-range GPU's have always been king. Not many buy the high end.

Usually many are cpu bound anyway with a too powerful gpu vs cpu.
10% buy high end 1080ti etc...
10% buy mid high end 1080 or so.
80% buys 200-300-400$ or so cards.

Bang for the buck cards sells a lot for a good reason
 
This shotgun approach has me thinking this round of cards won't last long, if we get everything very quickly, 80, ti, 70, 60, titan etc I can't see us going another 2 years to get the next shiny, so it'll be these on 12nm, whilst we wait for 7nm, hurm...
 
Agree, Yes mate everyone thinks the RTX 2070 is going to be the godsend of GPU's. :D

Not sure why. If it only performs as well as a 1080 from the previous gen that’s about to be reduced to a similar price, I can’t see the point in the excitement.

Thought everyone was hoping it would be closer to 1080Ti performance for ##70 card money?
