You're falling for PR talk. Raster gains won't be more than 50%.

They did show a few games that they said would be 2x to 4x faster thou, so i guess depends on the games.
That top end will most likely be DLSS 3 working it’s magic. If pure raster was that good. They would have said so with neon lights

They won't even be that, IIRC they said there's an 'up to' 25% performance improvement outside of the games that support DLSS 3.

That's for upscaling, i.e. faking higher resolution than it's rendering at. Not actual performance.
It's too expensive to be worth the price. They'll sell some to wealthy enthusiasts, but it's death to the mass market. It's akin to £100K being the entry price for cars. Some people spend £100K or more on a car. But not many, regardless of the performance.
Once you factor in a the rest of a PC specced to match the graphics card, you're talking about a minimum of about £2K and that's at the midrange (which nvidia has clumsily relabelled as high end). £3K+ for the actual high end. For a toy. It's not a large market. Big margin, small scale.

That bit was in reference to their shader reorder feature specifically.
He was intentionally vague though. Raw raster seems like it will fall well short of the 2x he repeated many times.

Looks like my 1.5 year old 3060ti FE for £380 was a bargain!
Did he really tell people to not buy a card $300 below MSRP
Soldato
Flood begins again eh! 
I am sure he said 25% in his speech.
Soldato
Yep its realistic a 25% improvement and would match the 2080Ti==3070 gen comparison like we seen before.

It uses at least 25% more power though. So the performance per watt is a negative improvement. A downgrade.
Soldato
Some actually most, wont see that clarity though and trumpet the gen regardless.
He did but having listened to it back it was as Twinz said, in relation to the shader reorder feature for RT.
What it is for pure rasterisation is still a bit of an unknown (guess work).

The bulk are Polaris / GTX 1660 - just look on hiveos. Also the cat meowing channel has more views .

Those do seem like a good deal if you think AMD are going to follow suit with looney pricing. The 3080 12GB hardly has much of a difference in performance to a 3089 Ti or 3090 anyway.
Soldato
Yeah, asking for a friend who has a 1080ti and is considering an upgrade then skipping 4000 series and see what AMD and Nvidia 5000 series offers

Yes just under 200pc left and as of no surprise the sales in the last 24 hours have picked up to around 6-8 units per day and potentially increasing more, so you can do the math and expect them to not hang around long, of course as well once were down to our last 20-30 units we shall increase the price as I will be honest were making 5% which barely covers the overheads so the last handful we will increase price to slow run-rate.
As the saying goes if you think the price is fair and you need it, buy it, the world has changed to how it was three years ago.
