Seriously?
NVidia could cut the price of the existing 20XX series if they want to sell more cards.

They could, but they won’t until sales plummet.
I wonder if there will be very good Black Friday deals this year?
At least Nvidia have acknowledged that their pricing went too far this time by forcing AIB’s to send their $500 cards instead of $600+ ones for review. I really hope there is a huge decline in sales relative to pascal so they can price their 30 series 7nm stuff cheaper.

I don't think sales are very good at the moment.
I look at what OcUK have to sell from day to day and cards like the 2080 Ti are just not selling out even though the actual chips they use are in very short supply.
Now you've done it, posts like this usually result in 'Gibbo' coming along to tell everyone that sales are really,really good...

Yeah. It is just way over priced. They are trying to get people used to buying XX80Ti for Titan money’s and it is not working, not for the performance on offer anyway.
They need to go back to their previous formula imo. Only Titan’s should command 4 figures and that is essentially a early buyers tax. Then release the XX80Ti 6-12 months later once they are done milking, which should be at a reasonable price.

Just give us a GTX 2080 without the ray tracing. boom, 50% smaller core, cheaper cards, consumers win. It's not like i want mediocre ray tracing right now anyway ...
Is'nt this the 1080 ti?
Soldato
It's called the 1080 Ti
I'm sure there sales figures already tell them they are selling enough cards.
The thing is with pricing it is very easy to reduce RRP later on, but much harder to raise it. If sales slow down early next year than prices can be cut 25% and all those who held out due to price will commit then.
nvidia are also being careful to have a complete market stack with products at every price point.
The onyl question now is what will come between a 1060 and a 2070 pricing wise.

2060 at £350ish? Seems about the right place to land atm...
Makes perfect sense considering there are still many 1060's still above £300 anyway........

hmmm thinking about the 2070ti..........i am a little confused here.. (not looking at prices but performance)
the 2080 is, give or take on a par with a 1080ti.
the 2070 is around 15% faster than a vanilla 1080.
iirc a 1080ti is about 30% faster than a vanilla 1080....
My question is, just where will a 2070ti fit? is there room to squeeze it in between the 2 cards above?

But is turing really a 12 nm gpu?
Doesn't this just mean the process has been refined.
Clock speeds are not much higher and power consumption is certainly greater
2070 is full TU106. As TU106 is rather big, they need a salvage chip. 2060Ti based on TU106 with maybe 1920 cores or 2048 cores with 192Bit and 6Gb?
