NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

[smogsy]

where is is the shoody gigabyte video im interested

 

[hlennie]

I know its lock down and stuff in a lot of parts of the world but seriously those videos wonder how much they spent? Did the guys in the gigabyte sweat block get payed a 3090 each for the video?

There's many issues and incompatibilities surrounding it, so the chance of it just working isn't great. Glad you didn't run into any.

For example, a single thread for a single tv just about earc: https://www.avsforum.com/threads/lg-c9-earc-info-thread.3072900/

After reading the last few pages people are trying to get earc features out of a non-compatible receiver or using a third party processing dongle

Great cover for a lack of stock, 'It's the mining craze snapping up all the cards' rather than admit the yields are in the toilet

lol. yup. But seriously.... I hope we aren't back to that place again.

I feel you, that's bad needing 3, god knows how many they have if any come release day, Gibbo said he'd have more information this week for people who want them.

Well its just one of those things, nothing much I can do about it other than put more pressure on my account manager, or find a single extra card somewhere else, no doubt gouged to death.

Any you ampere buyers getting cold feet with rdna 2 claims.

Nope, I have a G-Sync monitor and prefer Nvidia drivers

not really, i have TV that supports Freesync & gsync (LG CX48) so now free of the lockdown but from track record AMD have long been the best performance.
currently want very high end which generally is not AMDs aim

 

[ProStreet]

Very nice indeed. Forza horizon 4 at 144hz HDR on my x27, yes please.

Ugh, the more I think about it... the only graphically demanding PC game I'll be playing before Christmas might be Cyberpunk 2077 (if I don't buy on console). I'm truly wondering whether it's wise to spend £600+ on a new gpu when I'm only really going to play one big game. I might just hold off from buying next week and see what AMD are offering first at least, consoles are usually my main gaming platforms (90% of my friends are on console).

Played metro exodus? Fantastic SP experience and will tax your system well. As will red dead 2

Red dead needs more mods before I play it again i.e. turn it into GTA and I'll play

I'm hoping they're not priced gouged ,if the miners in China have hoovered up first stocks then it's going to be a nightmare for a lot of people.

Grr. What I would do to have one of those right now...

Almost guaranteed there are more stories online saying miners are sweeping up all the stock than there are actual miners sweeping up the stock. With many publications ripping every other publications stories off for hits this is the way.

Unless you're paying next to nothing for electricity or the price of crypto increases significantly, it will take ages to break even.

But if you're worried, on 17th September at 2pm keep mashing F5 and lock in your price and stock by putting an order in. It's not difficult.

That pic is breaking my mobile browser @chaparral

EDIT - never mind, on PC now, all ok

I fixed it (I put the picture in a spoiler tab )

I really hope those are not accurate. Jensen and DF made it sound better than that... Would be a bit of anticlimax unless they drop the price a little.

Ive been reading everyone wants one for mining. Queue the months of no stock grrr...

If they are maxed settings then that is pretty decent considering the jump over a 2080Ti and the perf jump with dlss which looks better than native in most cases.

I’d be more concerned about stock levels to be honest.

People in a few days wondering they go 3080 or wait for big navi. (This works for both threads )
