How long before Nvidia hobble the 1080ti with a "driver update" to make the 2080 worth buying?

Nothing "honourable" about owning one of these cards. Other words yes, honourable no.Got to be one of the first on the owners thread roll of honour though guys. No time to wait![]()

Potentiallyso is the the TRUE 4k card that runs amazing at 60-120 fps without breaking a sweat?

And that's why Nvidia keeps asking more with each generation. These new price segments are here to stay and increase incrementally. No mister Nvidia sir, thou shall not begot my coins.
Buying without having proper reviews or ideas about performance as compared to the previous generation is just entirely different level of madness IMHO. Nothing personal, I just cannot understand that.
Nvidia Clarifies - RTX in games doesn't mean Ray Tracing

Ray tracing performance. 2080 Ti provides around 30fps @1080p

Enjoy your 11 games, of which you'll play two or three, @720p, early adopters![]()
SO ALLLLLLLLLLL the banging on about ray tracing for over a bloody HOUR and the initials RT in RTX don't even stand for that.
And people say amd launches are bad, JEBUS!
This might come off as a joke but I would be careful moving forward with driver updates.How long before Nvidia hobble the 1080ti with a "driver update" to make the 2080 worth buying?

The first thing that does need to be said. . . we were obviously playing early versions of the RTX builds of both games, and with relatively early drivers for the RTX 2080 Ti graphics card too.
Tomb raider
We weren’t able to see what settings the game was running at
With the FPS counter on in GFE we could see the game batting between 33fps and 48fps [at 1080p] as standard throughout our playthrough and that highlights just how intensive real-time ray tracing can be on the new GeForce hardware.
While the shadows in my play-time did look pretty good, in that brightly lit instance it’s hard to see where they look that much better than the traditional way that shadows are faked in-game. And to enable the ray traced shadows you’re obviously having to pay a huge performance penalty for the privilege.
I’m not even 100% convinced Shadow of the Tomb Raider was running at max settings at 1080p
Battlefield 5
Playing the new Rotterdam map in Battlefield 5, however, was more convincing of how good real-time ray tracing can make a game look.
And everything has reflections. From the bonnets of cars reflecting the muzzle flash of your rifle, to the puddles on the floor, and the about-to-be-blown-out windows of a Dutch tram reflecting gouts of flame from a red-hot tank. The wooden stock of your gun has low level, ray traced reflections on it, hell, even the watery eyes of your soldier seems to.
But of course there is still a hefty performance hit to the game. . . while we couldn’t bring the fps counter up in the show demo version, we’d bet it wasn’t hitting 60fps either. And in a competitive online shooter visual fidelity is arguably far less important than getting a high frame rate. And running at a higher resolution, without the ray traced reflections, would likely be preferable too as you could actually see more detail at range for those precision shots from downtown.

I'm sure Jensen just forgot to mention all that!
I was interested but not at these prices. 2080Ti at £799 would have had my money.
The 2070/2080 cards seem to be dds when compared to 1080/1080Ti unless the shaders show a massive improvement or their new AA system works miracles.
I would've bought it at that price. I had set aside money actually, until I saw the pricing. The 2070 doesn't even have NVlink fingers lol
Here's another example:

- The demos didn’t clarify apples-to-apples performance differences between the GTX 1080 Ti and RTX 2080 Ti
NV taking us for mugs....it really is something else !
It doesn't matter how many times you post it, you're a nutter who'll end up with a 2xxx series GPU in your rig within the next year.
