NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080Ti to be "available" on June 3rd, RTX 3070Ti on June 10th
- Thread starter markthechef
- Start date
My 3090 paired with 7700k had a graphics score of 18965 on Time Spy so the 3080ti is pretty much the same. This is why I was aiming for a 3080ti myself. I'm running 3440x1440 Ultrawide but I believe the benchmark runs at 2k.
My graphics score was a 98.8% increase over my 1080ti SC2. Hopefully I'll see a nice overall increase when my new CPU goes in at the weekend.

There are loads of alerts on Amazon for various cards at various prices. I get them on Twitter. I've never seen a card available other than at a crazy high price. I ignore them now. Maybe someone with faster fingers than me has been more successful.
Any at decent prices get snapped up by bots before you even have time to click the link.
i got a 27in 2k monitor at 165 hz a 28in 4k @ 60 frames and a 49inch tv on the wall if i ever decide to sit on my bed and play on that.
so breathing space when i want to change those.
but atleast if u need that extra ram you got it. i was hopeing you know the 3080ti was gunna have more than 12gb before they sorta announced it but hey. it is what it is. and you gotta do what you gotta do. if you wanted the upgrade or not. and being lucky at getting a card in the first place
I honestly thought the 3080ti would come with 16BG RAM, that made the most sense to me.
That doesn't really work with the architecture. They would have to use the rear of the card and reduce the memory bus width.
This is why the original plan was for 20GB.
I guess I was just thinking about it from a marketing perspective and where it would fit in in the hierarchy. I mean, the 1080ti had 11GB 4 years ago, and now the 3080ti has 12GB.
I knowThe 3090 has 24GB VRAM
-_-
The 3090 has 24GB VRAM
And it's lovely. (Would gently stroke my 3090FE if it wasn't locked away inside my PC case).

My wife's baby photo collection.
Resize Bar could make it possible for larger assets to be stored in VRAM, so that's a potential future benefit.
24GB is overkill for normal gaming, but I would make the point that 10gb or even 12gb may not be enough for future games, especially VR. Modded Skyrim VR for example uses over 11gb of VRAM on my system.
I'd be happy with 16gb, but due to the memory bus width we're limited to either 12gb or 24gb, so I'll take the 24gb.
I suppose 24GB VRAM is seen as better.
750w PSU works perfectly fine with a 3090, some people were claiming to get 1000w PSU such over kill as well. When they recommend 750w
Depends on the PSU though. They are not all made equally - even from same brand.

lol that means you had wife sign off for the card then
I've seen 750W crap out with 3080 and 700W fail with 3070 so don't get too overconfident about that statement. Quality is everything when the graphics cards are so prone to power spikes

+1 for the statement above. The 3070 I got from OcUK, 8% OC + 8700k at 1.3 don't even heat up my 650w Corsair ITX Platinum. I bet you a 700w no-name will die while pushing benchmarks.
