RTX 3xxx performance speculation

Paper launches are common in the CPU and GPU industry so I expect it like they do every new release. I'll be near a Microcenter store in October so maybe grab a new GPU then if there is a version I like. I'm in no hurry.
 
Theres a thread about the LG 48CX in the displays section at the moment. Seems like the consensus on OLED is to keep it at ~25-30% brightness if using it as a monitor. The ones with older OLED screens that have suffered from burn in tend to be the ones that kept their brightness levels way too high.
I've uesed oled since c6 for my PC.... upgraded to a c9 last year b6 in now a tv in my bedroom I never had noticeable burn in/ir that didn't go away after it runs it's pixel refresh.... Not saying the people that say oled burn in are worng but I never babied any of my 3 oled tvs and put a lot of hours on PC uese....might be a brightness thing they get blindly bright if you turn it up so I keep mine low. also anyone that is buying $1500+ tvs will probably change them out every few years anyway

So yes get a oled tv with the new gpu 120hz on oled is amazing and blows LED out the water
 
You guys think an rtx 3090 on 7 nm will launch this year or next year? I wonder if a titan ampere card would be worth getting if they lower prices more.

I really want a 60% performance leap over a 2080ti

Questionable if a "3090" will ever launch. This is just a rumor name. Much salt needed.

Pretty sure we will get a 3080 and 3080 Ti in September.
 
Everyone whined about Ray tracing.

No more for you! /s

They whined about it because of the enormous penalty when enabling it, the fact that you needed a $1200 card to actually use it, and the fact that it drove up lower tiered pricing with a feature that was essentially unusable. Oh, and there are only a handful of games that supported it... Fewer at the time of game launch, mostly add-on patches months later.

Let's hope Nvidia fixes all of these issues this time around (obviously game support isn't up to them, but fix the issues they can fix).

Honestly I feel like the so-called 3090 is just 3080ti

So you think the 3080ti will be on 7 nm and have 60% performance improvement? Im still shocked most of nvidias lineup will be on 8 nm. I do know that its not official just based upon speculation.

I have serious doubts any of the consumer cards will be on 7nm. Enterprise cards are a different matter.

Why be shocked? NV is paying a lot less for Samsung wafers than AMD is paying for TSMC wafers.

I doubt Nvidia needs TSMC 7nm to get power under control like AMD does. So why not use Samsung's if they can get cheaper chips.

I figured nvidia would want 7 nm TSMC just to keep a greater distance against AMD for the ultimate performance crown. Give AMD no room to say that they outperform nvidia in the high end skus.

You're making the assumption that AMD will be able to compete at the high end. I really hope they can.

A decent chunk of Nvidia's profits are coming from enterprise and it's growing. Keep in mind that they get annual support/licensing $$$ for things like GRID. Keeping power under control is going to more important to them in the datacenter. That's why I say that it's probably TSMC 7nm for enterprise and Samsung 8nm for consumer.

There's a lot of unknowns so it's hard to speculate due to the variability of it all. I'm honestly curious what their pricing will be on the consumer side of things. Maybe TSMC availability opened up when Huawei was banned. How does Intel's new contract with TSMC affect availability? Lots of questions.

It's a further assumption that they even really want to; marketing is one thing, but AMD rarely actually targets the high-end with the parts that they choose to produce in the first place.
 
I wonder how much the 3080 and the 3080ti will cost. I am thinking about buying the new LG 27GN950-b when it comes out.

That's good to hear. I'm planning on picking up a CX shortly after the new cards drop.

And, when i am referring to AMD competing in high end i mean that AMD can beat 3080 performance and be very close to 3080ti level of gaming power.
 
I maybe the only one but I'm having misgivings about trusting AMD with $900 on a card. Those reviews better wow me.
After their back-to-back(-to-back?) debacles, it's hard to recommend trusting any new AMD GPU release for at least three months, be it at $90 or $900.

They usually turn out pretty well, but given how far AMD usually has to make up and how much less sway they have over their board partners to get stuff right, new releases have been consistently rough.

They can? Please give us a link to this discovery.

This is based off of theoretical specs of big navi. I liked how this guy broke it down on the scale of navi 2x and what could be expected from these class of cards.

Rumors are putting the 3080Ti 20%-35% faster than a 2080Ti across the board. Personally I wish it to be at least 50% but its not going to happen. We'll be lucky to see 35% performance increase. Pricing rumors have been between $1,000 and $1,500. I'm thinking between $1,000-$1,200 and probably closer to $1,200.
