Don't let little things like FACTS get in the way of a good argument/discussion.
It doesn't make what Panos said wrong though. Nvidia are using adaptive sync on their laptops. Adaptive sync is just the name given to the eDP VRR spec brought to desktop monitors.

We won't know until it happens. TT are just after some ad hits by just giving us a price based purely on opinion/guesswork.

Only Kaapstad would be able to afford one. I’d consider a 2000 series card but it would have to be at least 50% off that figure.

My guess is the GTX 2080 or whatever NVidia call the card will be around £600 at launch.
NVidia won't be charging massive prices for next gen gaming cards as in the long term (after the mining craze slumps) they won't sell.
The Titan V which is a next gen card has not exactly sold that well to gamers, there are not exactly a lot of people on this forum who were silly enough to buy one for gaming.
No, I could easily afford it...but will simply not pay it.
..there are many more like me, than him.

Nice that'll ensure resale value keeps high
Some 1050ti's are going for £200+ at retail, is DDR5 that bad to source, complete ripoff.

Will still sell in droves.
Really? I mean that's easy to say, but a £1500 non-Ti 1180 will sell well?
I can't see it.

Hopefully the rumours regarding a separate line of gpu's based on the Turing architecture will be released specifically for mining; with Ampere Geforce cards gimped at a hardware level to be useless for mining but great for gaming.
Optimistic ain't I?
If Nvidia can secure wafer yields and ddr then surely that's the best of both worlds from their point of view; keep the gamers happy whilst riding the cash cow of crypto miners?

How much will power do you have? I said that and my mind mugged me. Had a few arguments with myself the past few days that's for sure.
If they do that and price it at £1500 only miners and the rich will get them.

Mine to get cash to buy a GPU to mine to get cash to buy a GPU to mine and get cash to buy a GPU..........

That is pure greed right there.

What amazes me is how people write articles like this giving Nvidia ideas and allowing them to see what kind of backlash such a move would make. The ignorance and stupidity of the masses is astounding.

Only dumb miners, unless they're absolutely outstanding mining cards.
