Geforce GTX1180/2080 Speculation thread

There are almost 20,000 people waiting for the stream to start on twitch and there's still just under 2 hours to go. I wonder what percentage is barely out of the millennial bracket. Just seems like an incredible amount of people if you think back only 5 to 10 years ago what interest you'd get.
 
Lol does it really matter if it's the largest actual core? Surely if the performance is where it needs to be it makes no difference whether it's a full core or cut down core.
I was responding to someone asking if nVidia was holding anything back. The answer is clearly "yes, a lot".

And yes, it does matter to anyone interested in technology beyond short-term "I want the fastest GPU right now" thinking.
 
But i still stand by my comment, if i have £1k currently to burn do i buy a 2080ti for my PC, or do i buy an Xbox One X, 4K TV, a years Sub to Gamepass, Xbox Gold, Netflix and a few games. Both options are probably going to give you a years worth of enjoyment anyhow.

If I could play console shooters with a mouse and keyboard I would totally buy one :D

Despite the fact that it's always possible that "held back" full cores never actually appear (e.g. because of yield of such large parts).
