I am curious about those, admittedly; I do enjoy reading about new tech.
I posted this on AnandTech and think it fits here as well:
I, too, first thought there was a major price hike. But then I learned a thing or two and it's obvious there really isn't any. The segments remained, only the names changed. I don't think we would be having many of these discussions if they simply used a new name for the top tier - or at least explained the shift in the keynote.
Agreed, the 2080 is not in the same segment as the ti, its a 'medium chip' like the 2070. Everything has just moved up one pricing tier like it did a few years ago and the Titan has been dropped.

Never mind
Think i'll pass on the new 2080 cards it all sounds a bit vague, hyped and misleading. Pre Ordering seems a bit premature. Nvidia are placing the most emphasis/focus on Price and Pre Ordering, Greedy b*stards.
PS: i really do hope they rise above the hype and my doubts are laid to rest. Lets also not forget AMD.

exactly the same, i could buy 300 if i wanted but i don't see the benefit above a 1080ti and pretty much every new technology that comes out is always overhyped and buggy and raytracing is no exception.
Might take the jump once they perfect it. The fact they didn't give any stats on performance increase and focused on raytracing was quite worrying. Seems that is all they have to hype about

People think the 2080ti price is crazy
Wait till we see the price of Nvidia new 65" G-Sync display
Taking bets on north of £5k

If you have £329k cash sitting about you should probably invest a good % of it
.Pointing out the obvious, just 300 new TI's would buy a decent sized house in a lot of area of the UK yet even when boxed would probably only half fill a smallish room.But they're cheap when you consider one virtual bitcoin is £5250 or so and all you get in return is an entry in a database

Judging by the reaction, the 2XXX series may go down as one of the worst selling in gaming history.
They've sold out of the Nvidia edition until later in the year in the US. Also this poll will contain some people choosing not interested that weren't going to be interested anyway.

I'm currently running a GTX970 with an Alienware 3440x 1440 ultrawide I got for an absolute steal.
I will be getting a new card, but not until benchmarks are available. Even then I'll probably wait for a sale or Black Friday

Sitting this one out. There has been very little in terms of game releases over this 2018 and the prices Nvidia want are too high.
Nvidia.........what a bunch of tools.

That doesn't mean anything and won't measure the success or failure of the 2XXX series in the long term.
