For those that don't understand why the 3XXX is so different, watch this video.
Basically there is a 1.4x fps increase from the 780ti > 980ti > 1080ti > 2080ti so far. Then compare the MSRP prices.
$699 > $649 > $699 > $999
So the 2080ti while maintaining the same 1.4x fps increase had a massive price increase over the previous generations going back 7 years. The 600 series didn't have a 680ti only a 680 for $500. So now we have a 3070 that looks to be what should have been a 3080ti in terms of a 1.4x fps increase and it is at $500. The 3080 is looks to be double the fps for $699. That is crazy considering the past trend of Nvidia for practically the past decade! There is a reason the great card sell off is happening right now. At no time in the past decade has previous generation cards lost so much value in comparison to the new cards coming out. Personally though, even as a 2080ti owner, I find it fantastic as I can't wait to nab one of these new cards.
