Perhaps now we can all see why the 2080 Ti was launched alongside the 2080?
 
I was going to post that one Southpark pic.....but had the misfortune of not realizing exactly the repercussions of google searching "Cum on Self" until it was far too late.

Yes it makes sense. Since those of us on 1080ti's really have no reason to upgrade to a 2080. The only upgrade path for me is two 2080ti's and that is out of the fucking question for 2400 kissmyassnvidia dollars. Heh. Not happening. I simply cannot justify that type of money for two gpu's no matter how much I love our hobby and being an big time Nvidia fan over the years. The have gone over the line this time with pricing and I will have no part of it.

Long story short. I'm good till next gen when I do a full system upgrade. Cpu MB ram and gpu's. Until then my system rocks out on my aw uw at 120hz with no issues.

Oh just for the record if the ti variant was priced like last gen I would have sold my two and gotten to new ones but Nvidia got way too greedy this time. So I'm out.
 
I am going to wait til after launch and see how good DLSS is and what games use it. So far it looks like DLSS gives an extra 50% performance. So a 2080ti being 80-100% over a 1080ti might be worth it.

I hear ya and that sounds great if true but not for 1200 a piece. That's not for me. I simply don't see the value the at that price point. RT looks great and when we can play alot of games with a real resolution at high fps with RT on I'll be a player. Not going back to 1080P at 60 fps just for some tacked on RT tech. When RT matures a bit I'm in.
 
- "Should we really expect a 2080 be faster than a 1080 in all of our current games a general sense...? The standard [from the NVidia marketing chart] was about 40-60% without DLSS enabled..."

-- "I think that's accurate [then he goes on about there being gains only if your are GPU limited, 4k, not CPU limited etc.] ...2080 is going to be much faster than 1080; and 50% is not that far [sic] ...that's a pretty good number to keep in your head."​

- "Are there going to be instances where a 2080 outperforms a 1080 ti?"

-- "I think so... I would expect some cases where the 2080 beats the 1080 ti" [and he qualifies he doesn't have the data in front of him]​

So... the rumors that 2080 is a hair faster than 1080 ti seem to mesh.

A week long vacation at a condo on the beach in North Carolina is about $1200 or I could get a new video card. I'll take the vacay nvidia. Thanks. Or not.
 
If you look at it like this - that this is a ti in name only, and really just a Titan, the pricing and release timing makes sense.

Doesn't make sense to buy one though, just like it didn't make sense to buy a Titan.

Likely the meh performance upgrade (on non-RTX and GLSS stuff) on the 2080 is the reason why we're seeing a Ti version right now instead of 6+ months later on. I definitely can see that.

I wonder if there is a Titan forthcoming, or if this is it for the 20 series.
 
Based upon the leaks and points above...

If the 2080 was a Ti, then it would be meh. Right now as it stands the rumored 2080 performance being a tad faster or on par with the 1080 Ti, is in line with expectations for a typical non-Ti release. Pricing is the only thing that isn't in line with expectations. Everything is shifted up and you really aren't getting more per/$ with the new gen, but rather new tech for a similar price point. My 2 cents.

The issue is the 2080 is not inline with past performance deltas - and certainly not at $100 more tham last gen. 1080 was faster than 980 it, 980 faster than 780 ti... 2080 does not look faster than 1080 ti.
 
even if the claims are true that means 45% performance for 100% of the price...
