Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

EA released minimum, recommended and DXR system requirements for Battlefield V:

DXR seemed far more CPU and memory demand require CPU with 6C/12T Core i7 8700 and above or 8C/16T Ryzen 7 2700 and above, RTX 2070 and above and 16GB RAM than DirectX 11.1 recommended system requirements.

I hope to see first Ray Tracing game in November, Battlefield V could be the first Ray Tracing game. Still no news when Shadow of Tomb Raider patch will support Ray Tracing after patch 5 issued on 31 October.

DICE said due to performance issues with Ray Tracing, going to offload RT to CPUs. I wound't be surprised if a 2950X improves the performance further for RT....
 
Oh no, reality sets in that anything other than the 20 series sits in the subpar group :p. One could say won't be getting the best out of those 8700K's without a 20 series GPU either.

Raytracing requires a raytracing capable GPU shocker!!!

Well nobody saw that coming how dare they suggest that to get the latest features you need the latest equipment, including a powerful CPU and plenty of ram.

I think people (wrongly) assumed that raytracing would be handled almost exclusively by the GPU. The fact that it requires a thread heavy CPU to get the best out of it was not really pointed out to anyone from the start.

I was one of those. Plenty of others will have also upgraded still being on older 4 core i7s as well I imagine.

It just works! (Providing we can palm leg work to the rest of your system)

Speculation is a waste of time - Everyone is an expert and no one knows anything.

A good example is HBM memory, there has been so much speculation about it and very little testing by those who have posted. With the arrival of the 2080 Ti it really does prove that HBM is not very good at 1080p. When the 2080 Ti is compared to a Titan V it becomes very obvious that memory choice is having an effect on performance, the Turing card is better at 1080p and the Volta card is faster at 2160p. Having said all that there was plenty of speculation on the subject but none of the people who got it wrong have put their hands up and admitted it.:)

Speculation is a terrible waste of time to post and to read about, it would be different if people were prepared to have a proper debate but they stick to their original starting positions and never budge even when proved wrong.:)

I'm always curious about scaling, especially across resolutions. Have you tested out anything above 4K on your Titan V? I'd imagine that might be even more of a win compared to the 2080ti but I haven't seen the numbers. Would be cool to see some data for 5K/8K games, esp. if they have the hi-res texture packs.

At the moment I am using the numbers in the bench threads to compare the cards as I am yet to get some 2080 Ti cards (waiting for the right SKU) but when I do I will do some runs vs the Titan V @8k. The other thing about any of my Titan V scores is it is using the stock air cooler where as some of the 2080 Ti cards have waterblocks and custom bios installed.:)
