It has to be as good as Ampere for my money.
If AMD can equal 3080 performance at a lower pricepoint then they have already scored a big victory. No-one in their right mind should have expected it to be faster across the board.Hype train full gas now.
At least the rumors are settling now, the positive 'fanboys' on this thread (yes thats me too) always knew if it cannot challenge the 3080 its time to go home. With the open goal for AMD to score in due to uncharacteristically poor decisions from nvidia (low price, red lined, hot, massive, rushed launch) it would seem that AMD spies they had did spook them.
Good for ALL gamers! If you dont buy an AMD this gen, at least thank them that your cheap(er) nvidia cards are going to be delivered sometime soon..
Ed - I have only watched half of the MLID video but a lot of this info is what we were riding on the train with (GDDR6, infinity cache, high clocks, low power consumption).
Looking good, hope they dont fudge it now like Jensens promises, and god please let there be stock!
Nvidia Killer cards

RT is the same ballpark with turing and ampere.
Nvidia fail.
and cheaper and faster and cuter and.. I dont see why, the reviewers have mostly pointed out the uplift from turing to ampere has been meh, certainly not the 'leap' that some were anticipating.
Read it again . If u struggle some more I will draw you a picture.Can you please translate that into legible English?

December launch...joke .
December launch is fine by me. Because I’m not buying Nvidia.
There is a huge increase in RT from Turning to Ampere. A 3080 has 30-50% more performance than a 2080Ti, a gap that will only get bigger as the hardware is better used.

a $600 3080 competitor with 16GB vram sounds like a good deal tbh particularly for those with less interest in RTX features, just a shame it couldn't have come a bit earlier but good for those that can wait this out and nice to see AMD back in the game
you’re the one making things up. Like your previous post about the guy buying a 3090 to play path of exile and turn on RTX.NO THERE IS NOT.
You have to check the facts not your Jensen cool aid drinks.
Your placebo magical thinking right there a common thing when people make up (things that dogs do outside) without even knowing you did.
Very strange. The reviews of RT performance that I have seen have been huge when comparing a 2080Ti with a 3080.

Well you arent looking at the information hard enough. Yes its better, but may get better with 'fine wine', until then this is harsh but true:
true RT games ( pathtraced ) like quake 2 rtx and minecraft RTX
care to elaborate...
