NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

No there are dx11 games in there as well and o0ne the witcher 3 shows a 77% difference. Maxwell is old now and no amount of overclocking is making up the difference to 35%. Remember that NV cards once they are last gen lose performance over time to the newer cards.

Yeah but at stock not OC.
At 4k which obviously the 980Ti is restricted in because of VRAM size the 1080Ti does start to pull away... drop back to 1440p and its more like 40% not forgetting no one plays Witcher 3 anymore cos anyone that did want to play it has already played it.

I don't think you are aware of the recent revival of interest generated by The Witcher TV series on Netflix. The game has recently experienced its highest number of concurrent users, more than at launch. I don't have the data to back this up, but I would wager a lot of people new to the series picked up the game at Christmas (was probably on Steam sale).
 
The 900 series are the last Nvidia cards that offer good overclocking potential.
I've heard you can get an extra 40% performance out of a 980ti with a good overclock and the card on water.

Where as the 2080ti, even on water gains 15%

Weren't they just underclocked Titan chips that failed to make the grade? If you won the silicon lottery you had something that was almost as good as a Titan for much less money, not everyone was that lucky though.

tou can say the same for the 1080ti and 2080ti, they are Titan chips that were t quite up to spec so cores are disabled and sold as is

This is correct, I read that too.
 
NVIDIA’s Next-Gen GPU Is Up To 75% Faster Than Current-Gen – Will Be Deployed in Big Red 200 Supercomputer This Summer

https://wccftech.com/nvidia-next-gen-ampere-gpu-75-percent-faster-existing-gpus/

50% foster was going to be uphill battle for AMD to compete with but 75% would kill AMD in all but lower tier market segment and consoles. But ill believe it when I see it, just sound like the "Gigaray hype" we all fell for. Hope AMD catches up with nvidia this time don't fancy paying £2000 for 3080TI.
 
There's absolutely no competition for nVidia. We need AMD to pull a miracle and get close, even close will reel nVidia's pricing back in. Reality AMD are lucky to get to a 2080Ti with their next Navi never mind get to a 3080Ti. I think we'll have to pay the high prices for a while longer.
 
The Radeon 5700 XT is a warning shot, being at RTX 2070 levels.

Total guess work, but with the 2080Ti 30-40% faster, and the new 3080Ti say being around 30-40% faster than a 2080Ti or maybe more, do you think AMD is going to pull something potentially 80% faster to just keep up with a 3080Ti out of the next Navi ? Absolutely hell no.
