NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

I think that's still great.

The issue is what are the comparing with. For example they could compare the Titan RTX(Turing) with a RTX3060. The RTX3060 probably will be more efficient than an RTX3090!

I give you an example - the GTX460:

It had far better performance/watt than the GTX480 and was not too far behind the ATI GPUs of its era.

Considering there still arent many games that use RTX, Turing owners are more likely to have a high end Turing card for the performance not solely for RTX so even if the RTX performance on the 3XXX cards is high... it will be down to the non RTX general performance that will sell the cards not the RTX.

We were previously told that RTX performance was quadruple anyway...

Don't worry they will show some demo of Cyberpunk 2077 and show an RTX benchmark,and use it as justification. OFC,the game will probably look perfectly fine without it,as its probably bolted on RT (its made to run on the current generation of consoles).

I hear you but I assume he means RTX 2080 Ti vs 3090.

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).

The ATI x1900 came out before the 8800gtx and the 8800gtx was a beast of a GPU nothing could touch it for ages

I myself went SLI 7800gtx > x1900xt-x > 8800gtx

Yeah 8000 series was a class of its own thanks to shader changes, etc. the older fixed function cards could maybe hang on in some older games but any newer shader model games they faded.

Went 7950GX2 to 8800GT SLI myself.

If i remember right the 8800gtx was the first DirectX 10 card

I went SLI 8800gtx because of crysis :D
