NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

As @Kaap said, read what isn't there, all these slides are RT, this is the marketing, they are much faster with RT on, what's not there is Rasterization only.

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 was replying to someone who suggested a used 2080ti was going to sell for same price as new card that performed better.

It doesn't matter what the price point is in this case. When comparing a used, old tech, under-performing card to a brand new card that performs better, the former will always cost less than the latter.

aaah sorry didnt see that, just assumed it was a generalistic statement

Absolutely love the look of the 3090 FE, if those slides are genuine that's a bloody big boost in performance. I'm going from 2x 2080 Ti's to one 3090 so that performance looks brilliant.

I may well be in the market for a pair of 2080TIs come Xmas. I hate the idea of going single GPU even if the second is twiddling its thumbs. From Dirty Rotten Scoundrels 'It's what I do'.

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?

But, if the 3080 is genuinely faster and £800 then the 2080Ti won't hold the same value and will be cheaper.

1080 Ti's still selling for c.£400 used when a 2070 super is equivalent performance for £460-500.

It costs less but not by much and no way would I be looking at old tech for such a small price differential.

IF the 3080 was £800, a 2080 Ti would need to c.£500 max to be worth it, but I'm willing to bet they would still be £700+.

I just don't get the idea of pre-ordering when RDNA2 is going to launch soon.

GPUs aren't CPUs.

With CPUs the offerings from AMD and Intel are functionally identical so it's just a case of checking benchmarks and choosing the fastest for your use-case.

With GPUs there are other factors at play than just raw performance. Driver stability, compatibility, interface and so forth can be a factor. Also people may have G-Sync monitors and thus be effectively locked into NVidia.

I think you may be cherry-picking the highest prices you can find on the old-card in your example. I just went to the bay that sells used stuff and searched for "1080ti"...found 3 cards under $300 on the first page.

Even if we go with your numbers, older card costs less than newer card and the newer 2070 super does not out-perform the 1080ti the way the 3080 is expected to outperform the 2080ti.

A used 2080ti will cost less than every 30xx card that performs as well or better. Whatever those price points end up being, a used 2080Ti will be less.

Not sure whether the 3090 will be faster than 2 2080 Tis, especially in games like GTA V.

However, 1 3090 will be better than 2 2080 Tis in games where SLI can’t be used.
