Nvidia is building up stock for 3080 TI, much more expensive

5700XT doing so well shows that AMD will finally have upper hand with titles optimised for its uarch on consoles NVIDIA will have to work doubly hard to beat it with brute force

True, but BEFORE that they'll sell it as 3090 to every punter willing to buy it :)

Why would Nvidia do that when they can sell 3090 for a lot more than when it will be rebranded as 3080ti?

They could only double it and even that was a problem with GDDR6X - 2GB chips not ready yet

100% of a dozen of 3080 owners will be very upset ;)

What will happen soon is that at 5nm we'll get enough raster to drive 4k/120 fps easily with 2-3 times more ray tracing perf, and a gen after that we'll get maybe 10 times more ray tracing, which ought to be enough for everybody :)

End game for ray-tracing is full dynamic lighting - will take maybe another 10 years but it's good to at least be moving in this direction

Enterprise version of Ampere is manufactured by TSMC

Zen3 availability will be telling

This thread will soon get bigger than whole speculation thread about Ampere ... :rolleyes:

NVIDIA should really start getting pre-orders for next-gen cards now, with guaranteed delivery on day 1 in 2022.

That was truly evil, **** NVidia.

Checking out... what a load of bull...

Same **** here!

Raytracing ain't free, the only time it won't be jeapoardising FPS is when (around 2030) games will be ray-tracing only, so no point of reference to compare in terms of lost frame rates. 4k is particularly difficult for ray tracing since it's a lot more pixels.

Outsourcing sales via AIBs keep help Nvidia's headcount low, much better for share price to be considerd a tech company rather than retailer with some added value. Lots of customer service aggro is dealt with by AIBs too.

It seems that 3070 was meant to be 3080, and actual 3080 was supposed to be 3080TI and 3090 was meant to be Titan (so difference isn't high, just like before). Only one logical explanation for such shift - RDNA2. :) Will still buy 3090 though...

Remember to press F5 only AFTER you placed your order...

That would be insane for sure - go for 3090! :)
