Will you be buying an RTX TITAN ?

[easyrider]

Yep, You'd have to be out of touch with reality to spend that on a GPU.

Crazy man !

niche card at a niche price for a none gaming niche market. The 24GB of memory is put on there for AI etc and will differentiate still when faster 7nm products come out soon. It would pay to wait and see for any gamer

I have seen it many times blamed on the memory but I don't agree.

The problem is almost identical every time the space invaders fault occurs where as memory problems can be very varied in appearance.

I think the real fault is with something global like a dodgy batch of GPU chips.

If it was memory chips we would be getting the same percentage of problems from the 2070 and 2080 but we don't see that.

It is the memory.

It is the memory.

So why don't the 2070 and 2080 suffer as many faults as the 2080 Ti.

They all use the same memory.

But surely it will be a while yet until Nvidia release the next series’s of gpu’s?

Think of volumes sold, IC population, lower TDP. The space invaders on display are synonymous with VRAM corruption.

Damn it looks nice but I don't think my marriage would survive at that price... might have to sneaky sneaky one on the company books and fit it when my wife is at the salon...

I was thinking about the specs of the TU100 but found that Lian Li have already trademarked TU100 - it's a mini-tower case with a handle - so I'm guessing that TU102 is the full fat chip.

It's effectively a part number (and not even the full one) so I don't think it's a trademark issue.

My guess is that the TU100 exists but has a yield so small that's it's not commercially viable. Hence they went with a slightly less borked TU102 instead for the Titan.

I doubt we'll see anything until AMD start talking about Arcturus in 2020. Even if Arcturus doesn't fight at the top end, I can see Nvidia announcing their 7nm kit about the same time just to smother AMD's announcement.

I ordered one to compare against my SLI 2080 Ti setup. Not totally sold on SLI. Can always get the second RTX Titan if needed. Anyone heard anything about water blocks? I'd imagine a 2080 ti block would fit, unless the memory chips have a different height since they are of a different type.

I asked to be notified when in stock (don't know why as not buying one), never had the email. Looks like they're available to order.

I'll pass, one 2080 Ti is plenty for my needs.

^^ this, just checked the UK site and they are available now.

It isn't worth anywhere near what they are asking for it, I've put the money into Fanatec gear instead.

I did.

2070 and 2080 cards will likely outsell the 2080 Ti quite easily though not for people on this forum.

I am not an expert on memory chips but I think they will be operating under very similar conditions (voltages, temps, workloads) whether they are on any of the 20XX cards.

Then you may have to rethink how you came to surmise it's not the memory, Kaap. Other SKU are failing, too.

 

[DarrenM343]

Still in stock .
Wonder if they'll have parts left over for 2080 Ti refresh at some point? Only need half the memory.

 

[Kaapstad]

If other SKUs are failing in the same sort of numbers then yes I agree it is most likely the memory.

Firestrike Standard these days is not a very good guide as the CPU can bottleneck the very fastest GPUs.

Firestrike Ultra would be a much better test.
