I remember how many people said no way to paying 1k+ for an iPhone X
And now I see loads of people with them...

I bet the same going happen with this 1k 2080ti

Most get the iPhone x on contract and spend even more !

 

[easyrider]

If the 2080 is slower than the 1080ti then I'm done with nvidia for good.

 

[easyrider]

Those saying they will leave the PC master race it will not happen trust me I've tried many many times.

Tbh, I'm losing interest in pc hardware fast....I've just bought a 6 core 12 thread 8750H Dell XPS for my recording studio, considering the use it will get and the money it cost it makes the 2080ti cost just lol for some new eye candy...

I want to upgrade my home cinema, £1000 gets me 4 x monitor Audio silver FX speakers...GFX cards costing 1200 is just ludicrous...it's no longer fun at this price tier.

 

[easyrider]

Already jumped ship before the mining bonanza. Miss it but not tempted back, especially after seeing these price brackets. Not even a case of affordability, just a case of the money being better spent elsewhere.

Yeah...I can get more enjoyment spending £1200 on something else...The 2080ti makes a new 65" OLED seem a bargain tbh...

 

[easyrider]

I'm thinking a nice 4K projector. Maybe a laser one. I'd get much more enjoyment for me and the fam.

Good call

 

[easyrider]

Price is mental and I deserve the hate (which I am sure will come) but all my OT goes in savings, so **** it, time to treat myself.

I don't hate you, I feel sorry for you

You poor proletariat being manipulated by the Bourgeoisie!

Unless we fight the capitalist regime you're doomed to a life on the spade my friend.

 

[easyrider]

I think everyone knows how inaccurate that poll is, out of the 89% of No's so far, at least half of them will indeed buy a 2080Ti, its cooler to just say no, go with the masses but secretly buy one without saying anything.

for 10% gain over a 1080ti? Not a chance....

 

[easyrider]

Can't we have a option for a simple NO?

This TBH

Why no option for a simple NO?

Over complicated POLL imo...I dont give a hoop who buys a 2050 card lol

 

[easyrider]

Just ordered a damaged box PS4 PRO from Ebay for £315 quid with fortnite included! and I’ve still spent less than I would have on the 2080Ti and still have a 1080ti!

I can use this with my 4k predator screen then decide whether I want to quit pc gaming full stop

 

[easyrider]

I mean people buying one without even knowing what they are actually getting for their money!

 

[easyrider]

You no understand

People pay 90% of the price so they can have RTX 2080ti in there sig....

or to do a review on their youtube channel and get 70 hits

 

[easyrider]

Ooooo that hurt. A low blow hunny

 

[easyrider]

Something fishy is going on, No benchies,

 

[easyrider]

Correct me if I'm wrong but have we ever had pre orders without benchies before?

I was always under the impression the NDA was lifted, reviews came out they you preordered unavailable stock then?

 

[easyrider]

Man this poll is slow, had over 500 odd on mine before it was closed for no reason...

Oh wait....no one cares about who gets a 2050 or 2060 or even 2070

 

[easyrider]

They're not helping themselves there, that's for sure. Considering how late vendors got hold of the cards I doubt there's many benchmarks outside of NV to speak of yet, though.

That's why I'm thinking that maybe a 2080 will actually be slower than a 1080ti or maybe even only just 10% faster....

I also think that with two years on from pascal, I think there will be cards about to buy on release...we are drip fed and NV has had plenty of time to drip.

 

[easyrider]

This poll is more encompassing and more interesting
1070's sold well previously so I'm assuming it's more about the mindset of forum members that there's little interest below the Ti this far being shown on OCUK.
I suspect it's a bit of dramatization before many later cave in . I think the GPU's will really shine later.
I can understand why the keynote had no mention of performance vs current GPU's. 20 series are more forward facing.

Havent voted yet as unsure. I think my answer is "No" but to see what the next 6 months bring. It's great NV have released the technology now. PRice is high, sure. I don't game enough and enjoy old titles hence I feel no need to buy one at the moment.
I think the new FE design is great.

A poll is only interesting if it's engaged with

 

[easyrider]

I'm sure there are plenty of people who don't care about who gets a 2080ti either.

The poll worked for both camps

The other is messy but I don't make the rules

 

[easyrider]

I won't be. First time in 20 years that I've not brought a top tear card on release - sign of the times I think.

People work hard, what with the cost of living rising....people are becoming to think more closely about their purchases....
