NVIDIA 4000 Series

to save people (me) reading through this thread could someone be a real gent and give me an update on whats going on with the 4X series?

mainly, when are they expected to be out and when can we pre-order?

also, i have a 3060ti , do we have any official word on 4X specs to help decide if its worth an upgrade?

thanks

4 hours 16 mins until the event starts mate so we don't know yet.
 
The $700 3080 was a return to decent generational improvements. If Nvidia offeres ~30% more performance at the $700 price point, Lovelace will be okay IMO.

Unfortunately, I need a bigger jump in performance to get a noticeably better experience in my racing sims (in VR). My 3080Ti is able to provide a great looking experience during daytime racing, but racing at night tanks performance. -and the gap is much bigger than a standard generational 30% bump can cover.

I'm willing to pay extra for a two-gen leap in performance, but my reference point is the $700 3080, not the 3090. I don't care about "tier", "class" or any of the marketing levers they want to pull.

The performance Ampere offered at $700 was good. That's the reference point I'm using.

If Lovelace doubles Ampere's $700 performance, I'll consider a slight regression in price/performance to be an acceptable trade off for a larger-than-normal performance bump.

$1500 (for twice Ampere's $700-level performace) will get me to buy now. More than that, and I will probably just wait and see what AMD can do with their chiplet approach.

At that price I may not bother at all then and Jensen can tell me it’s safe to upgrade for the 5000 series :D

Unless his cousin provides much better bang for buck. But who are we kidding, AMD is now a premium brand :p

We had 60% from a 2080 to 3080 so if it's only 30% this time for $700 I'm not sure that will be enough to convince me to upgrade from a 3080, would have to be around 50% for me to pull the trigger.

That's just the marketing levers. Turing *money* was no faster than Pascal at launch.

The 2080 offered 1080Ti performance for 1080Ti money. We got 60% performance per dollar over *two* gens because Turing gave us nothing.
