Poll: Poll: Will you be buying a 2080Ti/2080/2070?

[Flake87]

Interesting article on how to get Freesync running on a Geforce card (avoiding the ridiculous premium charging of Nvidia Gsync)

Something bought for the purpose of our fun time but you would rather support ISIS than buy an NVidia GPU.... Very strange!

Yeah and I don't believe those who say they'd rather switch camps every time for a second. I dare all of them to put their words into action. Nonsense.

If i'm dropping that much cash on a card I ain't playing 1080p.

But gigarays.

I am going to pre order a 2080ti, is this the best one? https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus...ddr6-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-424-as.html
I know there is one £10 dearer with a big cooler with it, I don't want that. Gonna change to 4k at 120+ hertz when I find a suitable monitor. Quite interested in how they are going to work SLI seeing as these card no longer have the SLI connections.

You mean when they make more to find... there is only at present, the Acer X27 at £2200. Asus will be doing one with that panel supposedly, but expect around the same price. There are not any other 4K G-Sync monitors higher than 60Hz due until next year as far as I'm aware... and nothing has been announced (we can only see panels that are on the way), so there may be delays. You could very easily be sat with an incredibly expensive GPU for months on end with no monitor to really get the most from it (and scant few RTX titles either for that matter). That said, a 3440x1440 ultrawide might be worth considering on the monitor front.

SLI is dead, NVLink is taking its place. They are not the same thing and do not function the same way.

I must say I am tempted by flumpteen gigarayflops per memories of yesterday but I just can't do 1080p.

The asus one is already out and currently reduced to a mere £2249, bargain

Theres one 144hz 4k screen which is over 2 grand. The other choices are either high ms or a crappy TN panel :/

Where are the benchmarks? I don't care about ray tracing right now.

There is none.

I'll probably buy the Ti but need to see those numbers first.

in a moment of weakness bought a 2nd hand 1080ti to replace the 1070. Should be a nice update until 7nm cards are out.

i have put offers in on 3 cards so far, all at £460 and all were rejected. sellers were wanting between £500 and £600 for them.

considering i can get EVGA 1080ti with destiny 2 and that power adapter thingie, for under £630 posted brand new those prices 2nd hand are nuts. sellers choice tho i guess.... the longer i go without the closer we get to actual 2xxxx series benchmarks

The Ti is commanding a bit of a premium right now. I just sold a 1080 for £300 after delivery in MM. But had to pay £500 for a Ti (ebay).

In terms of shaders the Ti has only 40% more, so not quite equal to the 1080 for price/performance. However, it is far more liekly to hit 4k60.

Leaked benchmarks for Time Spy here (2080)

Yes I know, WCCFTech, so salt needs to be applied I suppose.

Will be interesting to see if it can overclock to 2.2ghz to keep that lead.

 

[roysters]

but if nobody has these cards to test how can that even be real...

Leaks coming from inside Nvidia? I mean they have had to test the cards and have drivers for them or else how would they have been able to run the presentation.

When it comes to Nvidia and others too, if a leak is real, it's probably not a leak, but intentionally released. Yer job would be on the line.

yeah it was an evga 1080ti sc2 gaming from ebay for £500 so about avg price for whats being sold right now. I'm not bothered about it being 2nd hand as long as it doesn't blow up. In a year's time when i go to sell it, it'll be worth the same as the new card would be so it's still £130 in your back pocket. The 1070 is an FE so will probably only get £200-220 for it or a £280 upgrade cost, the new one would be a £410 upgrade which is starting to get a bit silly for the % extra fps I'll be getting.
