I like the look of the BFGPU but there is no way in hell that is going in my case.

Not heard anything about that this time.I want to know which card is an A chip (if that is a thing this time) and which one I can slap a block on![]()
What game is that please? As I keep being told the 3070 is faster than the 2080ti in everything yet it's 5.5% slower there............Guess it was true. Really need to get a 4K 120hz screen...

I brought the 780 and then 980 at release for £450 & £440 accordingly from Overclockers. The 1080 I brought a couple at £529 for other people's builds I've done (not fe model).
So that price increase from those three is between £110 to £210 over what the previous 80 series cards were able to be brought at on release.
The 2080 made the jump to £699 and this gen is similar at £649 for the 3080or £639 (non fe) so that is the visible difference in pricing I'm seeing.
The 980ti had the £649 retail price at release too. These cards are coming out as I said at exactly the same RRP as the previous gen which everyone was slamming Nvidia for but now praising. It's mental and shows how used to stupid prices people have got over the last two years!

Found this image - the 3080 FE is seemingly a 'normal' size. Seems almost 20mm longer and have ever so slightly less height than the 2080 founders edition.
Looking to upgrade from my 980ti, which card would suit me best for 4k 60fps?
My monitor is the BenQ PD3200U 32inch 4k monitor, with a max refresh rate of 60hz I believe.
I mostly play sims like Assetto Corsa/Competizione and now Flight Simulator 2020, so I'm looking at a rock solid 60fps and max settings, would the 3080 be overkill, or will the 3070 suffice?
I tend not to upgrade frequently, so ideally would like something to keep me going for at least 3-4 years, as the majority of my gaming is on consoles.
I have an i7 9700k and 16gb DDR4 ram as well.

Interesting to see that the 3090 is 20% faster than the 3080 as expected.
Yeah, guesstimate.
Actually, at higher frame rates overall smoothness didn't change. But look at the pretty numbersYou're like humbug, not used to the higher "frame rate" in the Nvidia thread![]()
Has there been any mention as to the stock level of the cards upon release?
I assume there will be very low stock and will be sold out in minutes.
Bit overkill for 4k 60fps?Best card?
The 3090.
You looking to buy a 3070? LolPfft I dont want guesstimates. What good are guesstimates? I wondered why the guesstimates match my own guesstimates![]()

But how many on average have 4k/120 monitors. There isn't much to choose from.
