nah i will visit every once in a while. it is fun to get you people worked upeasy solution would be to ignore my messages but you people can't, so we're in this predicament. a simple sentence such as "nice to see it gettting destroyed hehe" is easy to push some of the people here to extremes. take it up to the forum's moderation team if you will, they're ones who are letting this happen. maybe if they ban/kick me or something, i may not visit again. but as of now, nothing can't stop me from saying these
no one has to answer, yet they do. they feel compelled to respond. what can I dono one has to defend 3080 or 3070, yet they feel compelled to do so. take it up to them.
when they do respond, they also mix personal insults, which i respond back as a result. it is only natural :=)
no answers to me = no discussion, easy
It's easier just to get along with people mate and say stuff that is constructive and helpful to the community.
It's clear you come along with a big stick to **** people off? Why would you do that?

Hmm depends when you purchase Bill. If your mid release that could be 3 cycles but I digress. Depends how many super dupers and Ti's stagger too!
True! I just knew it has to be more than one cycle. Which means that the 1070 was massively overspecced!

Here's hoping the rumours of a ps 5 pro with rdna 3 are true, if so, Microsoft will also have a refresh with rdna 3... Thus I suspect we'll see ray tracing pushed further, which will hopefully allow the ampere cards to stretch their legs a little more, heck, if amd knock it out of the park with rdna 3 and RT perf., ampere will probably struggle then!
Time will tell though.
Funny thing is, it seems to be only him who is having his jimmies rustled
i was constructive and helpful in the beginning when i first signed up to this forum, a particular person here made stuff personal just because he believed everything i ever say is irrevelant because of my CPU while i proved that the stuff was happening in GPU bound scenarios. after that it went haywire. if you bring out of context stuff into discussions in a manner to personally assault me, this happens. he brought out his attitude and his facts into the discussions in other topics to personally assault me
who started insults? it was always nexus18. i will assault back. there's no turning back, unless they apologise first (then i may apologise back).
he did again, one page back. he's obsessed and lifeless. there's no other explanations for his actions.
I think someone needs to read up on what an insult is.....
"this forum is full of insufferable lifeless people like you and your friend"
Once again, root cause is this:
Please don't misinform people with incorrect information. People come to forums like this to gain knowledge and inform their purchasing decisions. I post evidence to back up facts, you don't, if you can't handle that, you know where the door is.
PS.
I don't see anyone complaining about my posts, only yours

Sorry I didnt read this part must have been manly mutitasking!
8Gb RAM is definitely bare minimum now, we are seeing even at 1440p this would be a problem for a high end card - so your right the 8Gb was fine in the era of Pascal but a 40 series card I would steer clear (i.e. if they had a 4070 8Gb).
I would always try to be long-termer. Buying a GPU (or anything) with obvious shortcomings in VRAM or whatever, just contributes to ewaste.
Have to say I was not impressed with some earlier posts going on about since the 10GB 3080 has done okay until now then as long as the 4080 has more VRAM everything is fine. That kind of throwaway consumerism isn't any better than miners buying tons of cards to run into the ground while wasting lots of electricity

See, doing silly things like running 50+ mods (and some of the Skyrim Wabbajack compilations are more like 800 mods) is to me the whole reason I run a PC as opposed to a closed system like a console.
Complaint about people running mods seems very strange to me, as for me
No mods = console = save a fortune on PC hardware.

For a 4070? I'd guess 8gb wouldn't be enough. A further generation down the line the 4070 will probably be targeting 4k 60fps, with a 4080 aiming at 4k higher refresh?
But a 3070? 8GB is probably OK, as its aiming at a secure 1440p. 4k is not the aim, although it seems relatively capable. So 10Gb for 4k now is probably fine. A 4080 though, not enough,at least of GDDR6x. If it was still that, I'd guess you'd be looking more at 12 to 16, probaby closer to12 though, being realistic about the situation.
Incremental increase, 8k is too far off, so why aim higher? More RAM is unlikely to help refresh rate. Combine that with the necessary built in obsolescence, and I'm struggling to see a NEED to go much higher.

To play exclusives that are not available on the pc? Shocking I know.
Well if they are any good they will end up on PC. If not legally then emulated. Patience...

That game is/was so bad for it. Not played it in ages but recall the horrors of them downloads. People with fast connections probably wont understand but when it has been really harsh on a rural connection I remember waiting nearly 24 hours for one epic download!
Would like to see the 4070 with atleast 10gb while a 4080 with 12gb would be the minimum I'd be happy with.

If the 3080 doesn't have enough vram then the 3070 Ti definitely doesn't!!!
Yet I don't see a thread with disappointed 3070 Ti users.
I can't help wondering if people at the lower end are just more happy and content with life. High end users definitely moan more than low end users. There's 230 pages of it now.

Quality has nothing to do with exclusivity, plenty of games that are not possible to emulate.
