NVIDIA Stock Falls 2.1% After Turing GPU Reviews Fail to Impress Morgan Stanley, are they doomed?

[DarrenM343]

Consoles will get it, it will take off. Amd will be doing it too.
It's fantastic technology, why not? Currently best done with expensive GPU's, that's the only sticking point.
New tech gets cheaper with time.

NV Stock continuing to fall today. I'm sure nobody is panicking but there will be a few raised eyebrows and a certain amount of head scratching going on right now at Nvidia HQ.

Makes you wonder why they rushed these out the door before MS had DXR up and running, considering it left the RTX cards without a key feature to show off in games.

Who wants to game 1080p@60fps in 2019 when everyone will own 1440p/ultra wide/4k monitors

Feel really really sorry for that poor dude, trying to save a few pennies. Must be struggling

Agreed. Epic Man-Cave, can’t say the same about his eye-sight however

NV stock at an all time high today....

I did wonder how long it would take before they rebounded. This is the reaction that normally accompanies the new cards though, not two weeks later

Knowing Nvidia, they will gimp the 9 and 10 series even harder to try and force more people to upgrade. Rather than drop prices

 

[Lokken86]

A 2% drop was nothing though. Why even post about that.

Probably because it's unusual when a new card launches? I'd guess so at least.

I'd use subliminal messaging personally, built into the drivers

I suspect they already did that...

ye NV is 100% doomed LOL

That don't look very smooth is there G-Sync not working ?

Ray tracing will never take off unless consoles get it and that means AMD adopting it. Devs aint gonna develop for it without Nvidia paying them cash to do so, It will die on its butt.

AMD will adopt it eventually but at the moment the horse power to run RT isn't there and from what we are being told Turing doesn't do it very well either, Nvidia have pushed this tech on us too soon. From what we are hearing it seems that by the time Ray Tracing's in regular use Turing will be off the table, It's like the Maxwell 750ti, out early but not up to the job so largely forgotten in the greater scheme of things.

That much was obvious from the moment they unveiled it, positioning 2080ti as a 4k card on one hand and as a 1080p ray tracing card makes for a pretty weird launch. They are trying to "big up" both ends of the spectrum to an extent but the performance is only just there for sustainable 1080p rt gaming.

It'll be interesting to see how it fares in bfv, in past games you can have scenarios that can really tank performance, with RT on I can see it struggling in more intensive battles.

It's OK because the price of leather is down 5%.

 

[banbom44]

Not surprised the 2080 is a flop the 2070 will be even bigger flop and the 2080 ti is for the ultra enthusiasts.

Can't see next gen consosle having RTX anything considering they're going to be based around AMD parts.

There is no reason why they would have RTX 'anything', as RTX is Nvidia's Gameworks combination of Microsoft's ray tracing support (DXR) and Nvidia's own DLSS.

Microsoft having a rather popular AMD powered console and offering an open standard ray tracing platform (DXR) may just surprise with their next gen console, besides, consoles have had checkerboard upscaling for some time now. You could also consider that if somehow the consoles did have RTX 'something' then RTX may become popular.

I can't help but laugh at some of the naysayers here.
Just think this through. The design for the 2000 series cards will be been signed off years ago. At that point, Nvidia wouldn't have known that AMD weren't going to be able to produce something to compete. The implications being that they would almost certainly have expected to introduce the 2080 as a direct replacement for the 1080, and at the same price, i.e. maintaining the usual fairly static price, but improvement in performance.

This time around, AMD have no competition, so all Nvidia has done is upped the price on the new cards. Chances are that they've added 50% markup in profits for everyone of the new cards.
Assuming they sell, Nvidia are looking at a bumper year in profits.
