1070ti used for $300 or 2070 for $599?
I'd love to see a comparison between these two cards in the 2070 review and how much performance gained for double the price.

Seriously man, it sucks that this is being forced as the new norm, obviously things don't go backwards. I get a little raise for inflation and all that but jeez.
5770 and GTX 460, those were great affordable cards. And when you got two they were beastly.
indeed, I ran a 5770 I think I paid around $140 for. 6-12 months later I added a second in crossfire just because I wanted to try it. That setup was able to run anything at 1080P 60FPS as long as anti-aliasing was off, due to it's very slow memory. Served me well for 3 or 4 years.
I understand how excessively demanding 4k and 1440/144hz is, but there should still be an entry level 1080P screamer like that 5770 was in 2009-2010 that can handle everything at 1080p medium for ~$150.
It's not, though, not really. The 2080 is 10% faster than an FE 1080 Ti, but so is nearly every AIB 1080 Ti. The FE was constrained by a poor heatsink, which they got rid of for the 20xx series. You put the 2080 against any of the non-blower fan 1080 Ti cards and they're neck to neck.I would be suprised if it is as quick as a 1080Ti considering that the RTX2080 is only around 10% faster than a 1080Ti
What's crazy is that's what I paid for my RX 480 4GB - 2 years ago! And not just any RX 480, an MSI Gaming X one. The mining craze inflated prices like crazy, and they're only now getting back to where they were two years ago.You can get a Radeon RX 570 4GB for $159.99 after rebate right now. That's probably the closest we're going to get to an affordable 1080p/medium quality card.
Looking into my crystal ball... I see a gain of 0 performance, 1 ray tracing that's too slow for maxed settings at 1080p, all the DLSS that FF 15 can handle, and you will feel like a great weight has been lifted... from your wallet.1070ti used for $300 or 2070 for $599?

They release all 3 now because 7nm will be out next year. This allows Nvidia to milk more dollars up front before the 20 series is obsolete in 12 months.its odd they are releasing the top 3 cards at the same time
That being the case, then the RTX 2070 will perform well below the 1080Ti

Seriously though Turing is the worst, stupidest, most let down video card release I've ever seen. Worse even than your typical amd release.

The RTX 2080 is actually 5% slower than the 1080 Ti.
Matrox Mistake, some games looked worse than software with their horrible texture filtering, still people swore by them for some reason, impossible to get them to realize there were cards that mopped the floor with the Mistake.You must not have been in the game too long, if you think these are the worst let-downs.
How about the FX-5800
Matrox Mistake
Most S3 chips. (granted, we didn't expect TOO much)
Voodoo 4/5 series
Many Power VR chips (they could have been so much more)
i740? (it wasn't absolutely horrible, but not what it was supposed to be)
GeForce 256 SDR? This was a big advancement, but like Turing, it introduced features that it couldn't initially keep up with at the time. The GeForce 2 GTS/Ultra were what really brought T&L forward.
Those are a few that spring to mind. There have been some seriously disappointing chips released over the years though. These GTX 20xx cards are actually very good cards. The fastest on the market. They're just dividing the user base though due to features and performance in older games. They're still the fastest thing you can buy.
Hmm, the more you buy the more you save doesn't sound so enticing now does it? No one knows. It was one of the first things to pop into my mind when watching the reveal, no dates for any RT titles anywhere to be found, so that was a big reason I chose to hold off. The new Metro is supposed to be out around Feb. '19. At least 1 RT title at launch would have made the card much more enticing.when are actual ray-tracing benchmarks going to be released?...do we need to wait for Battlefield or will Shadow of the Tomb Raider get patched soon?

Wait the RTX 2070 has DVI? What the fuck! I have two 144hz monitors that only takes DVI, but I want the 2080ti... ffs!
If you have a FreeSync monitor, why is that even a question? Get the Vega, love it, be happy!That's my assumption right now. It will perform worse than the years old Pascal cards it is replacing at a higher price as well. Nvidia done lost their fking minds and I'm just sitting here with a 5ghz i5-8600k in my new build from late last year and still still sitting on a POS rx480 STILL waiting to upgrade. Just too pissed off at nvidia and seriously thinking about buying a Vega just to keep holding me over. Vega should do fine on my 21:9 1440p freesync monitor anyway. Was hoping to buy a 2080 but my god the price and the performance? Turing is just garbage right now.
I may not do anything I'm so used to just waiting due to the mining bubble over the last year. Still find it hilarious that many if us were around pointing out that it was a huge irrational bubble and hey guess what? Plus I'm literally in the hospital right now with my newest son, who will be one day old in two hours.

Sadly it doesn't support high refresh rate monitors.There are HDMI or DisplayPort to DVI cables out there. I use 'em all the time on Windows, Mac's and especially to connect Raspberry Pi's to older monitors.

I just bought a BNIB 1080ti ftw3 for 540. I hope I wont regret it at 5760x1080
I read everything about the active adapters a year ago and as you said, it really is a hit and miss. I have 3 144hz monitors and one 165hz monitor and two of them are DVI only, so I can still use my 2080ti with Displayport, but I always prefer DVI when given the choice as it just seems more stable most of the time. What I'm pissed about is the fact that the RTX 2070 has native DVI, but the 2080/2080ti lacks it for no apparent reason. I think there is only one custom PCB out there, so eventually the DVI could come back with custom AIB cards.You'd need to run an active DP to DVI-D (dual link) adapter for each display.

Caveat: Most of these adapters seem to be kind of hit and miss. You may be limited to 120Hz or live with the occasional flicker or monitor power off/on weirdness, from what I've read.
There's a post with other related info at Linus Tech Tips that might be handy, but the Dell Bizlink above is the least expensive adapter I came across in my admittedly brief search.

And a relevant Reddit post.
The other option, of course, is to sell your displays and pick up a set that feature Displayport. The adapters are probably worth a shot, though.

I WISH that was my mortgage payment! Mine's nearly 3x the price of the projected baseline AIB 2080. That's the Seattle area for you though. We're trying really hard to hit SF and NY prices. Not there yet, but trying our best.
