10GB vram enough for the 3080? Discuss..

[TNA]

Hilarious. 4K was always banging on about how washed out nvidia looks compared to AMD, but when we're talking about an image promoting an AMD technology he completely ignores how ridiculous that washed out non-CAS nonsense looks.

edit: and there it is, predictable as the sunrise.

Yeah I noticed that too. Reminded me of 1080p vs 4K or 60hz vs 144hz comparison shots on monitor manufacturers websites. They always over do it and it looks laughable.

I will wait and see the benchmarks and reviews before believing anything said.

12GB RAM not VRAM according to the requirements.

The dev said 12gb graphics ram. That mean vram to me.

Yes, of course. Is this a serious question or...? Everything or most of the things on Nvidia cards look washed out like that. Maybe not that deeply but you get the idea.

An Nvidia user can never see what they are missing because they have never seen the true image.

How is my nvidia GPU able to render that better looking 'CAS-ON' half of the image!!, The comparison is almost as stupid of the HDR/non-HDR comparison images.

Reminds of NFS Most Wanted 2006, for example:

In the real world, one can never see so much blur, no matter the speed.

The same way my puny rx580 can render a picture of a game with enabled raytracing.... its a picture buddy . Now I agree that the comparison seems silly and overdone but come on man, you can do better

Lol. 4K8K has started again with his image quality amd vs nvidia rubbish

 

[Things change I've changed]

Here is the same image with just the contrast raised on the non-cas side of the image, no other tweaks,

The power of CAS contrast!

Seems like 3080 & 3070 (especially) owners are gonna have to get used to below-console level texture quality. Make sure to thank Nvidia again for the extra vram it didn't add!

yeah I know. Perhaps if they used faster memory they could use a smaller pool vram

Good news it's out in 10 days so we can look at the 12GB of 'graphics memory'.

I wonder if as an AMD title, they have inflated the vram requirements on purpose to shun Nvidia?

Apparently this is 1080p 60fps:

OS: Windows 10
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 or Intel Core i7-8700
GPU: AMD Radeon 5700 XT 8GB or Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080Ti 11GB
RAM: 16GB

About the image quality of nvidia vrs AMD, AMD wins hands down.

I've went from a 5700 XT to a 3090 and the image quality is so disappointing for games turning off AA brings the nvidia card close to AMD if needed use it at the lowest setting.

Part of my work is product photography and would never consider nvidia over AMD for Photoshop try both and see for yourself. I use an AMD 590 for this purpose.

What is funny about that CAS image it really does remind me of when i went from a 3870 to a 8800gtx. The left hand side was what the Nvidia image looked like in comparison to the 3870. Was also what my mates image looked like when he went from a 290x to a 1080ti on the same monitor. We were shocked at how bad to the eye Nvidia was in comparison in a game like Rocket league which is very colourful.

Its the first next-gen consoles only game.

It's on PC too.

It's on PC too.

I know but consoles set the minimum standards.

 

[TheRealDeal]

I know but consoles set the minimum standards.

Depends how you look at things. The minimum standard is probably PC lowest settings. Console comes in between depending on which one you have.

Interest piqued. Show us some examples

CAS just seems to be another alternative for developers vs the existing tools they have and a game should look almost identical on both platforms in regards to image quality with existing tools or they're doing it wrong.

The issues with poor Nvidia image quality seem to be a setup issue.

 

[Richdog]

According to Godfall developer it uses 12gb of VRAM at 4k ultra textures 1:17. It's the first next gen game not available on current gen consoles.

If this is true, then the posts of a certain few members in this thread are really not going to age so well.

999 times out of 1000 in my experience it is because they aren't comparing like to like - there is a very slight difference mostly in red saturation (someone linked to it before) but properly setup it is very very close and in most cases impossible to tell by eye.

Kinda pointless question really, 10GB VRAM is what the RTX 3080 has, you just adjust settings as needed. Unfortunately gddr6x isnt cheap, nor particularly power efficient.

Game developers will try to keep to the budget available for recent GPUs, not much point in designing settings for gpus costing over £1000, like the rtx 3090.

If not, buy AMD or wait for next gen.
