Something super is coming...

Because it’s more CPU limited at lower res. At 4K it can stretch it’s legs.

It won’t perform worse, but it’ll only perform a bit better at lower res. At 4K the margin is much larger.

Thx HRL makes more sense now. Like other posters I’m running 3440x1440, and I need an upgrade but choice is bewildering atm

You can disagree but the constant blaming AMD for poor price market and stagnant progression is pretty neanderthal like. Far more factors involved than just one other competitor.



Pay it if you like, I dont care; not stopping you! My message on threads like this is stop whining (not aimed at you directly) as people are clearly still buying this inflated trickle of tiers which is continuing the problem.



^ precisely. @Gregster its a bit rich calling anyone on this forum biased - we dont need to cut you to see what colour you would bleed. ;)

I was attempting to be objective but I see it is wasted on the likes of you!
 
Sure @Scooter72 it's likeHRL said. See the following graphs and how much smaller the gap is between a 2080/2080Ti is at the lower res;

I thought the UW res would push the card more than normal 1440p but it seemed not, was cpu limited (with both my 8700k and 8600k @ 5Ghz).

Even thought the Ti has nigh-on 50% more cuda shaders than the 2080 it just doesn't get to flex its muscles that often, which is a shame :(

I'm personally expecting the 2080 Super to be within 12-13% of the normal 2080Ti at 1440p, even Ultrawide.
 
These cards are all running into CPU and system bottlenecks at resolutions under 4K.

It no longer makes sense to buy a 2080ti for anything less than 4K based on those graphs

It’s why for decent 4K I had little choice but to opt for the 2080Ti.

I wish AMD had something competitive for less but that’s not to be for now, or any time soon TBH.

I did spot a 2080 Ti yesterday for around £570 new and I was about to buy then I talked myself out of it. I think it was a pricing error as it's back to over £1000 now.

Should have given it a go at that price if only to re-sell it! Probably wouldn't have been honoured though.
