Performance is, as was expected...attrocious. At least with the £80 bridge, RTX owners can buy a second card to hit that magic 60 fps. Ker-ching.

I actually bought a pair of 2080 Ti cards because of all the negative comments by easyrider and others.:D

The EVGA FTW3 2080 Ti is a fantastic card and two of them together look very nice.:)

Lovely kaap. Do they run good in SLI?

I'm curious what the performance hit will be when a game uses it for more than just reflections though, if DXR On tanks framerates down to 35%-50% just for reflections - what about adding shadows, ambient reflections, refraction, diffusion etc

According to pc per putting the rtx settings in bf5 to ultra adds global illumination and a few other things, the low setting just enables the reflections.

Looks gorgeous mate.

I was away from PC gaming for nearly a decade, aside from the odd blast on my laptop.

Coming back to it this year I went 8086K, 1TB Samsung 970 pro, watercooling, 32GB DDR4 4000, and of course a 2080Ti. I figured I might as well go the whole hog.

Understandably, I've been utterly blown away by what it's capable of, but more importantly, I use this machine daily for work and it's increased my productivity ten fold.

Contrary to most here, i'm really not understanding the extreme negativity around RTX performance. I have a 4K 60HZ monitor and am currently getting around 70fps at 1440p and 40 fps at 4K in Battlefield V.

I genuinely think that for a first example of such an early stage technology, this is quite impressive for a few reasons:

- DICE have stated that they still have RTX in the pipeline in a synchronous manner, when they know that they can use it asynchronously and just need the development time. (This would mean that raytracing wouldn't be eating into the general rasterisation budget as the two would be performed in parallel).

- DLSS seems to give an incredible boost on the FFXV demo and I actually prefer the image to native 4K.

Even if we consider just the potential impact of adding in DLSS to BFV alone, then we would end up seeing the 2080Ti deliver around 60FPS at 4K with RTX and DLSS on, which would max out the vast majority of 4K monitors out there.

How on Earth could that be considered anything other than a triumph? I'm honestly asking, I just don't get it. :confused:

Still, I understand all the complaining about the price and I'm in complete agreement with everyone else in that regard. But at this stage I absolutely cannot agree with the overwhelming amount of negativity surrounding RTX performance. And that's not me trying to justify my purchase at all, because I use it for work daily and it's paid for itself already in terms of increased productivity.

Quick botched release just to shut up gamers with some systems that are miles from ready, i would not be too shocked now if they came out and said DLSS, yeah sorry, it doesn't work.

DLSS is literally the only thing keeping people's interest currently as RTX is a bust for this gen at least, something that everyone knew before the cards hit.
