Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

[JediFragger]

I downgraded to 1440p instead (from UW) and got a boatload more fps in the trade, bonus!!!

I actually thought the 20 series was better at 1080p and worse at 2160p than I was expecting.

Me too, I was very surprised at that.

Win win!!

Look nicer, run quicker.

Watched NexusGamer and JayzTwoCents reviews, I am so glad I bought 1080 ti.

So does the 2070 beat the 1080Ti as it should? Whats happened? Sorry havent had time to read reviews just in the door.

Not really, the value of the pound tanked just before the 1070/80s came out. I think this is more down to the cards being on the same process node, having a larger transistor count, more power demands and more expensive cooling that the previous round. If they have been on a new process node I'd expect them to have been cheaper (maybe £900 for the Ti, £650 for the 2080 and £500 for the 1070). If the boards and chips are ~£100 more expensive compared to the previous round, then Nvidia want to keep the same margins on them (Probably ~100% I expect), and you then VAT the total, I think you get close to these price increases sadly. The $ prices were actually higher than the £ prices numerically for once, so it's not the value of the £.

The 1080Ti was nearly £800 on release day IIRC.

Do you mean markup rather than margin mate?

I think this is down to more silicon and Nvidia being very greedy, the latter being the dominant cause.

1080ti beats the 2080 in most games. 2080ti 25 percent quicker than 1080ti. 2080 pricccccce drop..

Same thing (I thought, but I'm not in finance). If it costs them $500 to manufacture I'd expect them to be looking for 100% markup/margin.

No chance, be about 80/85% of a 1080Ti.

Well that is ridiculous.
1070 = 980Ti
2070 should = 1080Ti

1070 = 980Ti
2070 should = 1080Ti

And £570. BOOOOOOOOOOM!

just to counter Tiny Tom Logan, whilst realistic and not all out Toms hardware fanboy is a lot more upbeat about it.

IF i can get that gigabyte card back down to £1050 i am in. I knew i should have pre-ordered!.

 

[Safetytrousers]

but the 2018ti only 10-15 FPS faster....it's a joke

If you're going down to around the 35fps amount in GTAV (which you can do with ultra grass and other settings) then 10 to 15 fps more would make a very significant difference. I've been doing some testing and I know this from that.

The 2080ti is 5% slower than a 1080ti in GTAV...

 

[banbom44]

I upgraded my GTX 1080 to a 1080ti 35% faster for 700 pounds why would i pay 1200 pounds on a 2080ti for the same percentage rip off.

 

[Safetytrousers]

the only game i wanted to see benchies for was GTA 5, and the 2080 is ~5% slower than the 1080ti according to gamersnexus

Hardware Unboxed says meanwhile a 37% higher average for the 2080ti over the 1080ti in GTAV at 4k and the 2080 3% worse.
The 2080 is a hard sell at the moment. I'm hearing the memory bandwidth on the 2080 may be holding it back in some situations. It outdoes the 1080ti a little in as many games as it does worse.

 

[beany_bot]

How did people pay for their pre-orders again? lol

 

[[Death]]

Out the bank and glad I did, well when the ti gets here

In who's benchmarks?

Both show it to be faster except at 1080p where it's the same (CPU bottleneck). The 2080 edges ahead in both as well (Not that that makes it a worthwhile buy)
