Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

Lol,

Come 2.30pm this thread is going to be filled with two types of people, those that have come to realise that they've thrown away £1200 on cards that are barely faster than what's come before and really wish they'd waited for reviews, and those that, to save face, will pretend to everyone here that they've made a sound purchasing decision and regret nothing.

Patience, as well as virtue, saves you from very expensive mistakes.

Ah well, we can close the GPU section down for the day with that expert analysis. Don't bother logging in boys and girls as Cooper has it all covered.
 
2pm, I allowed the extra 30mins for pre-order peeps to read the reviews and let it all sink in :)

So you have inside knowledge of Nvidia? I would like to know what you know? And even IF the card is 50% faster than the 1080Ti I will still feel like I've wasted 1.2k! I always feel like I spend too much:) I've decided to be happy with the purchase and not dwell on it.
 
I thought most people were saying to expect the 2080 to be 20% faster on average than a 1080ti and the 2080ti to be upto 40-50% faster..

The 2070 should trade blows with the 1080ti, and hopefully be cheaper.

I'm being slightly more conservative ... I'm expecting a 2080 to beat a 1080ti in most cases but not all and expect a 2070 to sit between a 1080 and a 1080ti but never best it

Nonsense post. DSR negates your first group for starters.

Or some of us just like new tech and are making new builds?

I think the 2080 will be reliably 10%+/- a few @% faster than the 1080ti without the dlss stuff in play, and the 2080ti 20% faster +/- a few %, I hope the 2070 trades blows with the 1080ti without dlss and fly's past it with dlss.

Anyone seen prices on the 2070? As I'm gaming 1440p 144hz and happy with that I'm tempted to just go with the 2070 as the x70 cards are generally the smartest buy when looking at perf per £

That made me chuckle. However I think pre-order people will be falling into a group that is happy with the results but not blown away and then discussion will move onto the RTX and tensor driven AA side and whether that is up to expectations.

nvidia have doubled the FP16 rate and shader performance is up 40-50% so you do get that over GTX10xx. If the lower future cards such as 2060 do not have the RTX and tensor cores but still get this shader increase then they could be good bang for the buck and I will not have to put my wife on the game to pay for it :D

I'm at the same resolution/frequency and would be interested in the 2070 if it is indeed around 1080 Ti performance but I think it will fall short without DLSS.

The Gigabyte model listed on OCUK showed as £570 briefly although the price has now been removed

Price sounds about right, I think it's MSRP is $600.

Once I've seen performance numbers on it I will make my decision, i lm doing a new build in the new year waiting for AMD 7nm before deciding on that or the 9900k,
 
Surely you can't be that foolish?

You get these clickbait videos every release.

I think the jump will be reasonable but in the 20-30% ranges without DLSS enabled. I think DLSS will make the difference.

The jump from 980Ti to 1080Ti was a bigger jump architectural wise as you had the big core clock jump from 1300ish MHz to overclocking to 2000mhz+ on pascal.

1080Ti to 2080Ti you have realistically a 20% jump in cuda cores and then Turing itself. Essentially another 10% from architectural differences and uprated memory speeds most likely.

So for me personally I’d say 30% without DLSS and probably 50% with it enabled.

There was a process node shrink from the GTX980TI to the GTX1080TI though,perhaps looking at the GTX780TI to GTX980TI is probably more comparable?

Based on what we have seen so far I am thinking 35-45% without DLSS and with DLSS I think we may even see some titles with > 100%. I am also really interested in how these will overclock. (Talking 2080ti vs 1080ti)

I think DLSS will be the key. How well it will be implemented though will have to see. If it’s just a generic setting or just in new games or just needs to be implemented into older games as well to gain the boost.

Not long now though and TTL just posted a screenshot of his videos he’s rendering on facebook. Don’t think he realised he left some of the bench results in view as well :p.

Hard to make out but whether or not they are 20 series scores is a wait til 2pm :D.

It can be implemented in old games and Nvidia have offered to add the code to existing titles for free, so we could see older games supporting this as well if the offer is taken up.
