Haha :D







Lol. I told you already earlier today, today is not September yet. Seems you are so excited about the launch that you lost the plot :p

Just in case you still not sure, it will be tomorrow 5pm. That is in 24 hours and 53 minutes time ;)

If still not sure, follow the countdown on this link: https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/special-event/

Obviously all pricing and performance dependent but you're considering buying a last gen 2080 Ti, which will likely be c.£800 on the used market, instead of a new gen 3080 which will likely be faster in raster, faster in ray tracing, and also around £800 all for the sake of 1Gb of ram?

if 2080 Ti will be fine for you until next release then so would a 3080?

Seems crazy to me. Why not wait for reviews and see if they show it as vram limited.

Im just hoping its not too long to the AMD release as at the moment there are no dates.

AMD can't compete with NV on 7nm. Their only hope was that the 3000 series was on 12nm again, or a sub par node. On equal footing, they have no chance in hell.

It would be enough for Cyberpunk. Btw avg fps means little. you have to see frametime graph, that's the important part.



that guy has no credibility.

New leaks! German reviewers, not sure it's real tho. Text looks fake but I don't know if it's based on something real. I'll lean on the side of most likely fake. Will keep it up just in case.

"RTX on" i can believe that, in that with Raytracing there would be a 100% performance jump.

I can't think of anyone I know that would buy an older, used version of something when the new version is better and costs the same money.

If the 3080 outperforms the 2080Ti, the 2080Ti will not sell for the same price to more than a handful of uninformed fools.

It will cost some amount less due to being used, throw in another price hit for being old tech....and take a further hit that correlates to lesser performance.

It's all dependant on the pricing of the new cards though, its not about old vs new. If 3070= 2080Ti performance but the 3070 is £800 its safe to say a 2080ti will comfortably sell for ~£600 and the resale market will stay solid. By nvidia jacking up the prices of new cards all they do is jack up the price of last gen cards too. However if the 3070 is around £600... then RIP 2080TI resale value i think lol
 
I just don't get the idea of pre-ordering when RDNA2 is going to launch soon. I pre-ordered the ATI 1800X according to the rumoured performance. Cancelled when I saw the benchmarks vs the immediately launched GTX 8800 512MB from Nvidia which was quicker.
I then bought the 8800 GTX 512 mb and ATI then launched the 1900X which was by far the best card of the three. This all happened in a 12 weeks or less period or thereabouts iirc. I jumped early then jumped early again and was rewarded with a decent card BUT not at all the best card for the money at the time. Keep your powder dry and don't shoot until you see the white's of Nvidia's and AMD's eyes. Waiting for the dust to settle in 2-3 months seems wise if you've waited (I have for over 3 years).
