Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

Dunno, looks dumb to say the least. Almost looks like a chainguard on a motorbike.

No, at least a chain guard serves a purpose.

Mind you, my case, mobo and GPU all have RGB. First thing I did when I got it set up was switch all the lights off so I’m probably not best to judge cosmetic things.
 
First picture of RTX Titan LEAKED!!!

Look like Nvidia will launch flagship RTX Titan in December 2018, possible 7 December which is exactly a year after Titan V launched on 7 December 2017.

Meh, could easily be a faked image. Interesting if not though. Wonder if it'll follow conventional titan pricing like titan xp or derp pricing like titan v, suppose it all depends if they use hbm on it or not.

Poor Kaapstad, he recently got weak, gave in and bought the 2080 Ti’s even after saying he had no interest for quite some time. Going to need to buy these now, as for sure it will be better than both his Titan V and 2080 Ti :p

Also everyone here won’t have the best RTX GPU anymore. Nvidia just keep dishing out the pain! :p

Wonder who will be selling their 2080 Ti to upgrade? :)
 
All this does is confirm that these Turing turkeys are going to have just about the shortest product life cycle in Nvidia's history. By this time next year, the 20xx cards will just be a bad memory.

No I don't think Turing will have the shortest product life cycle, Turing RTX 2080 is now 2 months, 11 days or 72 days old. Nvidia now planning to launch RTX Titan this month then RTX 2060 and RTX 2050 in early 2019. 7nm probably a year away and Turing will be a year old with good fond memory of the first architecture to have both ray tracing cores and tensor cores

I checked Techpowerup to compiled full list of Nvidia GPUs architectures product life cycle.

Found 5 GPUs with shortest life within a year:

Celsius NV30 Geforce FX 5800 lasted 2 months, 6 days or 67 days replaced with NV35 Geforce FX 5900
Fermi GF100 Geforce GTX 480 lasted 2 months, 14 days or 228 days replaced with GF110 Geforce GTX 580
Tesla G92 Geforce 9800 GTX lasted 2 months, 19 days or 80 days replaced with GT200 Geforce GTX 260
Tesla 2.0 GT200 Geforce GTX 260 lasted 3 months or 92 days replaced with GT200B Geforce GTX 260 Core 216
Tesla G92 Geforce 9800 GTX lasted 3 months, 18 days or 110 days replaced with Geforce 9800 GTX+
Curie G71 Geforce 7900 GTX lasted 7 months, 30 days or 244 days replaced with Geforce GTX 8800

When NV30 launched I was not very impressed with reviews and waited 7 months later for NV35 Geforce FX 5900 Ultra and very pleased with heat and noise, I bought Tesla Geforce 7900 GTX on launch day but was annoyed when Nvidia launched next generation Tesla 2.0 Geforce GTX 280 7 months and 30 days later and someone on NVNvews forum recommended me to gave AMD a chance for first time and bought Sapphire Radeon 4870 but the Radeon drivers was the worst I experienced with so many issues with every games the drivers break it and RMAed it for refund 3 weeks after bought it then bought GTX 260 and I was really very impressed with performance, much faster than Geforce 7900 GTX but annoyed when Nvidia launched 55nm GTX 260 Core 216 3 months later. Bought GTX 470 and very pleased with it, not regretted it and skipped Fermi 2.0 refresh.

I remembered read posts in many forums people bought G92 cards on launch days and very impressed with performance boost on 65nm shrink of Geforce 8800 GTX which I bought on launch day and decided to skipped G92 but 2 months and 19 days later Nvidia launched Tesla Geforce GTX 280 and G92 owners was not happy and very annoyed at Nvidia surprise Tesla 2.0 launch.

RTX Titan, i reckon it'll be about 3/4K, and i said ages ago, that they should get it out, so that everyone could send their Ti's back with the extra cash for a one :p

All those still waiting for their Ti's, will be cancelling now too, to get these :D

People should start stockpiling failed Turing cards?
 
I bought Telsa Geforce 7900 GTX on launch day but was annoyed when Nvidia launched next generation Telsa 2.0 Geforce GTX 280 7 months and 30 days later

Some of this isn't right - G92 was originally released on 65nm 1 year before the 200 "Tesla" series release (8800GT, etc.), the "high end" G92b refresh was released shortly before the Tesla series launch which did annoy some people who'd jumped on it with the 9800GTX. There was a 2 year gap from the 7900GTX launch and the GTX280.

Personally I went 7950GX2, 8800GT SLI, GTX260 SLI (and then GTX470 SLI) and was pretty pleased with the transition and value for money.

EDIT: As an aside the G70 series was never Tesla let alone Telsa and no one actually referred to the Tesla microarch cards as Tesla which only ever became common use at a later date when referring to nVidia's professional/high-end compute targetted cards that grew out of the G80 series.
