They have new shipments of this card almost every week, absolutely no reason why they can't set one aside.

cobalt star Dec 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

what is a good temporary gpu under 150

ember marsh Dec 16, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

i mean its priced at 499 right? i was gonna get 3070 founder anyways

#

i dont mind the price if it got good cooling and 4 extra fps is bonus

tender mulch Dec 16, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

FE is $399

#

The extra $100 is definitely not worth it

#

Thermals aren't that much better to warrant an extra $100

#

For that money, get a 3070

#

but the 3060TI is 2080 Super level performance so....yeah

ember marsh Dec 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

do you know how much better the 3070 than 3060?

tender mulch Dec 16, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

1080p or 1440?

#

1080p, go 3060

#

1440p, go 3070

#

4K, go 3080

ember marsh Dec 16, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

2k and less

#

1440p and less

#

okie sounds good

tender mulch Dec 16, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

3070 then if you can swing it

#

3060 TI will do OK at 1440p but....3070 worth the extra $100

ember marsh Dec 16, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

the fe 3070 doesnt run too hot right?

tender mulch Dec 16, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

No

#

They have good coolers this go around

violet mortar Dec 16, 2020, 4:51 PM

#

shadow prairie any one entered for the cyberpunk pc

I entered that one Linus tech tips one didnt do the cyberpunk one

#

the case is a bit weird

tender mulch Dec 16, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

The difference in thermals between the FE 3070 and Gaming X Trio is about 2 degrees C

#

at idle

#

and about 10 at load. But it's still not bad

ember marsh Dec 16, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

okay thx

#

im def getting the fe 3070 the next drop on newegg

#

if i can that is

tender mulch Dec 16, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

Any one you can get will be fine, except Zotac. They're kinda spoopy

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

I got a zotac 3090 - it's running great, and I'm going to undervolt it

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

I wouldnt worry about undervolting

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

To reduce temps and power draw?

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

nah the caps should be fine now after nvidia lowered the voltage in the patches

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

yeah for sure - but I want to do it to reduce temps and power anyways 😄

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

you totally can I just think it would be fine without

#

unless you crammed it in a mini itx or something lol

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

lol

#

yeah I read the review on WCCFTech and they undervolted the Zotac 3090 with some really nice results

#

they reduced the power draw from 369w to 280w - that's pretty huge

#

had over 5C temp drop

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

as long as it doesnt affect performance too badly

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

no performance loss

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

even better

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

yeah interestingly the main reason they undervolted was due to the Zotac having that locked power limit

#

but I will probably flash it with the Gigabyte bios if I want to get into overclocking it in the future - for now, I'm just really enjoying it as is (minus maybe the undervolting I'll do). Huge upgrade from my 1080ti

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:12 PM

#

lol I hope so its a 3090

#

that things a beast

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

I honestly almost went 3080 (like they're available right). the 10GB Vram though.. was going to cause me problems. Downgrade from 1080ti lol. And I do video editing and 3d workloads

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

yeah I'm hoping for a 3080ti with more vram. I am just holding on to my 2080ti for now

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

nice

#

what res do you play at

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

4k

#

get around 57-60fps in 2077 with rtx max

#

unless driving then 40-45

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:19 PM

#

ahh nice

#

dlss?

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:19 PM

#

lol oh yeah need the dlss

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

lol yeah, it's going to be nice to have - I actually have a 2070maxq on my laptop and was able to play Death Stranding on my 4k TV with it using DLSS. Was pretty amazed.

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

not even sure if the 3090 could do 60fps with max rtx 4k and no dlss in 2077

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

I don't think it can no

#

I'll be playing @ 5120x1440, so I'm just under 4k

#

I haven't tried it yet, haven't had the chance

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

its fun

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

but I think I'll get at least 5-10 more fps than 4k

#

yeah, correction I tried it on my 1080ti briefly - at 5120x1440 💀

#

was not a good thing

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

yeah plus you will get about 20-30 more fps than me just with the 3090

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

nice

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

as long as you have a decent cpu at 5ghz

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

my CPU is gen1 ryzen threadripper, so for gaming at lower res it sucks

#

but ultrawide to 4k, it's GPU bottlenecked for most games

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

I think you might be more single core bottlenecked from the cpu

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

well, I am in games like WoW which only really utilizes a single thread

#

most modern games like Cyberpunk use multi thread though - you'll see no noticeable difference at 4k between my 1950x and a 5950x for example

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

the 3090 called me and it says it wants a 5900x 😉

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

hahah yeah, I almost upgraded to zen3, but I decided I really don't need to atm at this resolution especially

#

Going to hold out for those 5nm Zen 4 chips with DDR5 😄

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

I agree to a point but single core speed is still important even in 4k with a game that uses multi thread

#

not losing a bunch but still losing some fps

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

yeah, maybe a couple at most though honestly, unless they are heavily CPU bound games

#

like Anno or something

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

Really any open world game tbh

wicked hound Dec 16, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

Don't forget about lows

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

GTA, Cyberpunk (that game doesn’t work at all, anyway lmfao), Read Dead etc

wicked hound Dec 16, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

Lot of them CPUs get good enough averages, but lows isn't really as easy to get good at

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

yeah, the difference is so negligible though, it's not worth the $1k+ upgrade to get zen3 @ 16cores

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

I mean.

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

1950x serves me well for almost everything - trust me I have heavily debated upgrading. It's just not worth it.

#

not until zen 4 anyways

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

I don’t think the 5950X is worth it for gaming, since it’s not intended for gaming

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

I think a 1950x is going to bottleneck a 3090 by about 10% of its performance and so does steve at gamers nexus 😉

young dune Dec 16, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

I have a 1950x and of sucks at gaming. Warzone was horrible

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

Ok so hear me out

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

@hard wren at what resolution?

young dune Dec 16, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

Switched to an i7 8700k and FPS were better and gameplay was smoother

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

Would a LG CX 48 inch work well for a 3080ti (which basically is all but confirmed) paired with a 5800X?

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

thats true he was talking 1080p and it is much less at 4k but he also said the 3090 wouldnt be the bottleneck in 4k either due to its vast amount of vram single core speed is still just important even if spreading the load some processes can only use one thread and the faster the task is completed... the quicker it is

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

@young dune warzone worked great for me with a 1080ti @ 5120x1440

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

Also I find it ironic the 5900X performs slightly worse then the 5800X in gaming

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

single core speed again

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

Not a big difference, really it’s 1-3 frames difference but it’s just funny to think about

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

@hard wren yeah, like I said at 4k the GPU will be the bottleneck even for me. I may lose a few frames due to gaming inefficiency on the 1950x but it's not worth the upgrade for me at such a high cost - I really do need to keep all my cores

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

yeah if you need them threads you need them threads

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

well almost* 4k 😅

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

I wont be upgrading my 8700k either since intel cant seem to solve the node issue with 10nm and is pushing back "real" new cpus til the end of 2021

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

@tribal hedge that is interesting, and probably has to do with managing all thems coreseszezs

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

11000 series doesnt count in my book if the rumors about specs are correct

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

I have only briefly read some rumors about it

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

Ngl

#

11000 just seems to be a repeat of 10th Gen vs Zen 2

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:37 PM

#

14nm regurgitated 10000 series basically with lower boost speeds somehow

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

The gaming performance between the two is so negligible that it doesn’t matter

#

But the price difference is considerable

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

I'm pretty sure I'll be all for throwing my money at zen4 honestly, regardless of what intel does, even though my gen1 Ryzen has it's flaw for sure 😅

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

📎 images.png

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

And I get the feeling AMD will lower prices once again, when Intel releases 11th Gen.

#

Ah yes next Gen

#

Strip it of 2 cores

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

its like they neutered the 10900k and made it a 11900k hopefully those specs are wrong

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

Wait a minute, what’s even the point of getting a 11900K if the 11700K is just the exact same cpu with lower clocks

#

Also AotS seems to report 11900K with 8 cores

#

It’s basically all but confirmed

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

its sad

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

“How are we going to beat our competitors 16 core processor?”

wicked hound Dec 16, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

10c on ring bus was kinda crazy tho

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

“Simple.”

#

“Give them half as many cores.”

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

well on the plus side they doubled the tdp so hopefully we can OC the crap out of them

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

Yeah but that’s kind of all Intel has rn

#

It’s just “we overclock better then Ryzen, please love us”

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

The specs aren't wrong, they don't have space for 10 cores

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

@wicked hound reducing the ring-bus latency is cool but it seems like it should have been part of the previous gen not a new gen in itself

#

@ripe ivy how did they fit it on the 10900k then.....lol

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

They took this new arch, and put it on their old 14nm node. That takes up way more space, so it's the best they can do right now with what they have. 12th Gen they will actually be on 10nm apparently and that's where they should have 16 cores at the top

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

Problem is

#

AMD probably will have a refresh of zen 3, and zen 4 released by then.

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

larger ring bus probably got in the way on the 11900k so it could have 10 cores lol

ember marsh Dec 16, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

wait so does the pinned message mean that this generation of gpu, evga is the best?

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

Ehh I think

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

Uh maybe, Zen 4 is allegedly coming 2022

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

yeah ddr5 will hit both around the same time causing us all to upgrade

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

I mean we probably won’t see DDR5 benefits for a while

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

I thought Zen4 was allegedly late next year?

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

But maybe I’m wrong and stupid

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

You guys can upgrade, that stuff is gonna be expensive on launch phaWesker

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

maybe not for gaming, but perhaps for other workloads

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

I've heard Q1 2022

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

Honestly considering that Intels delayed their cpu launches so much

#

It won’t surprise me if Intel beats them to the punch AGAIN

bleak pumice Dec 16, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

ah on what ddr5?

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

Release.

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

rumors say ddr5 will have 6000mhz speeds at launch

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

I saw 8,000 and higher

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

Well considering the spacing of release, yeah I would expect Intel to release first probably

#

Well maybe

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

So DDR5 usually goes between

3200mhz to 8400mhz

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

It's actually a toss up

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

intel supposedly rushing for 2nd-3rd quarter 2021 but the elusive 10nm issue has to be solved first

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

Damn

#

They’re gonna eat into the 11th Gen release if 12th Gen comes out?

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

Wouldn't be the first time

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

yeah Im sure they are aware and dont care

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

They did that with 7th and 8th gen

tribal hedge Dec 16, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

Accidentally cannibalizes their own product line up, like a boss

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

11th gen is gonna be a cheaper generation I think

#

I mean considering they're bringing the cores down for the i9, I think it's a given

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

they wanted to release with what is going to be 12th gen as 11th gen but the 10nm thing

#

so they throw out 11th gen to keep money coming in while finishing the real 11th gen and calling it 12th gen 🙃

ripe ivy Dec 16, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

Well Rocket Lake is a different Architecture, it's just still running their ancient 14nm process

hard wren Dec 16, 2020, 5:53 PM

some 5700 xt cards get to much power so undervolting wont mess with clocks and do somne research on the card

hi guys i have a question regarding 3080 vs 3090. i have an old cpu i7 6700k

#

i do have a 4k monitor lg 27gn950

#

will it be a bottleneck for the cpu if i get a 3090

ripe ivy Dec 17, 2020, 1:22 AM

#

Well, the graphics card won't be bottlenecked at 4k per say, however depending on the game typically more recent AAA games: The thread count of a 6700K is pretty much the absolute minimum so you might see some rougher 1% frame drops but the overall average performance will be fine

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

In simpler terms

ripe ivy Dec 17, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

Also don't get a 3090 it's a waste money, the amount you spend on it does not translate well to extra performance over the 3080

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

It’ll work fine for now but later you might wanna consider stepping up

dusk oasis Dec 17, 2020, 1:23 AM

ripe ivy Dec 17, 2020, 1:25 AM

For say 3 or 4 years, at 4k nah. I mean you'd have lower settings for sure

#

There is the 3080Ti rolling out in February now, that will have 20gb

Basically it's a 3090 with the same memory bus as a 3080 and double the Vram

@tacit atlas 3090 VS 3080 (Both using i7-6700k)
In both cases, the 6700k will create a 10% bottleneck on the GPUs.

@terse bloom in that case should i get the 3090 now if i get it and later upgrade my cpu/mobo

terse bloom Dec 17, 2020, 1:35 AM

#

Unless you need the extra VRAM, the 3080 is the better choice. Since performance wise, the 3080 is a much better deal.

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

Or just wait until Q1 of 2021 and spend $1000 on a nerfed 3090

terse bloom Dec 17, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

With the 3090, you're basically paying double the price for a 10% increase in framerate and performance.

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

The only nerfs is -4 gb of vram and less bandwidth

tacit atlas Dec 17, 2020, 1:37 AM

you're right the diff is negligible with double the price

I might get a 3080

terse bloom Dec 17, 2020, 1:40 AM

#

But yeah, if you're thinking of getting a 3090 now, and then upgrading your CPU/Mobo later.
I think it's better to just get the 3080 now, and use the extra $800 to buy a CPU and Mobo too, that way you can upgrade all 3 at the same time, and not have to suffer any bottleneck.

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 1:41 AM

#

terse bloom But yeah, if you're thinking of getting a 3090 now, and then upgrading your CPU/...

Alternatively you can wait for the 3080ti, and still have an extra $500 to beef up your pc.

really the 3090 ain't worth the money rn

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:07 AM

#

i mean, we keep going up in terms of VRAM requirements. It was 1 GB, then 2, then 3, then 4 then 6 then 8

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:07 AM

#

for 1440p?

tiny sierra Dec 17, 2020, 2:08 AM

#

crystal lark hmm but games in 2+ years will def need more than 10 GB VRAM no?

If you get a amd gpu there’s no rtx

tiny sierra Dec 17, 2020, 2:08 AM

@tribal hedge is right if you aren't talking 4K+ 10gb is enough but 4k screens are becoming more mainstream

#

crystal lark hmm but games in 2+ years will def need more than 10 GB VRAM no?

You're talking about the future.
If you're gonna say "games 2+ years from now", then you might as well wait and buy a new GPU 2 years later, instead of now.

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:09 AM

#

just realized this means the 2080ti is now technically a mid range 1440p card

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:09 AM

#

I would say asking for your gpu to last 2 years shouldnt be a huge ask

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:09 AM

oh how times are cruel

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:10 AM

#

they are cruel cant believe how far its value dropped

tiny sierra Dec 17, 2020, 2:10 AM

I feel like the 3080 sould have more memory

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:10 AM

#

eh

#

the 2080 only launched with what

#

like 8gb?

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:10 AM

like driving a jeep off the lot. and half your value is gone

yeah 8 for 2080 11 for 2080ti

terse bloom Dec 17, 2020, 2:10 AM

I'm just saying, don't try to future proof or plan for the future. Look at what the 30series cards did to the 20series.

so true and yet it hurts so bad

Mabey future proof with psu

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:11 AM

its a midrange 4k graphics card price tag for high tier 4k fps

@tiny sierra if you want the best future proof card that doesnt terrorize the bank

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:11 AM

get 3060

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:11 AM

i hate to keep saying this but

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:11 AM

#

terse bloom You're talking about the future. If you're gonna say "games 2+ years from now", ...

well because the 6800xt already has 16Gb

#

so in a way its a lot more future proof in that respect

#

and its also very powerful

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:12 AM

#

the 3080ti is easily the most ideal for any resolution, 1440p and 4k

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:12 AM

I feel like I should be using that evga lease plan for my cards now lol

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:12 AM

tribal hedge the 3080ti is easily the most ideal for any resolution, 1440p and 4k

agreed. except its just way too pricey

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:12 AM

ye but a 3060 is a 2060 super price tag for 2080ti performance

2080 super*

they have better performance but worse price to performance

3060ti is slightly worse than the 2080ti 🥺

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:13 AM

in pure rast, Navi and Ampere trade blows with each other

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:14 AM

that doesnt really matter tho a 2080 ti is 1,200$ while a 3060 is 400

#

kek

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:14 AM

#

in MANY games the 6800xt just is more powerful. I think on average of 20 games, the 6800xt still is ahead for 1440p

tiny sierra Dec 17, 2020, 2:14 AM

Yup but for me rtx is important

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:14 AM

am not planning to getting 4K

not many people care about 4k

raytracing has definitely come a long way in the entire 2 years its been around

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:15 AM

nor raytracing

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:15 AM

not for a 60% performance hit at 4K

not many people care about 4k tho

native 4k with ray tracing, sure

but if you're using dlss, the performance hit is neglible

in some titles, its even better then the rast with rtx+dlss

2080ti has no problem with rtx max 4k dlss on in 2077

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:16 AM

#

tbh nvidia just offers more for their price imo

#

i see it this way

#

sure, the 6800xt is $650

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

i disagree tbh

#

well

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

but think about all the features you'd get with a 3080

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

somewhat agree

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

for just the extra $50

tiny sierra Dec 17, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

It’s I agree

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

its not

#

its a mixture of bot

both

for me

considering i could care less about 4k and raytracing although i enjoy using it sometimes

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

i mean

are you saying the 6800xt is a 1440p card

lone pond Dec 17, 2020, 2:18 AM

no

#

i never said that

i said i dont care about 4k

1080p is clear enough 4 me

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:18 AM

#

1080

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:18 AM

#

as a launch day 2080ti owner I though rtx was stupid and hated that some of my cores were devoted to it. Now that more games have it and I have seen what it looks like with and without I dont want to go back to no rtx ever again lol

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:18 AM

#

havent used it in a while but eh

#

imo, more games should definitely leverage rtx

#

especially since if implemented well, its a night and day difference

#

i mean look at minecraft

tiny sierra Dec 17, 2020, 2:19 AM

#

Ok but when it comes down to it would you guys pick nvidia or amd

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:19 AM

#

whats my price range?

terse bloom Dec 17, 2020, 2:20 AM

#

In all honesty, 6800XT is more expensive than the 3080..
I mean, if you actually look at AIB card prices.

tiny sierra Dec 17, 2020, 2:20 AM

#

800

ripe ivy Dec 17, 2020, 2:20 AM

definitely 3080

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:20 AM

#

16 GB VRAM is plenty

10 is meh

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:21 AM

#

wdym "ten is meh"

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:21 AM

specially more and more games use more and more VRAM, not the other way around

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:21 AM

#

last gen, 11 was plenty and nothing really maxed the 2080ti out

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:21 AM

#

its like GPU performance, its only going up, not down

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:22 AM

#

10 is more then enough for 1440p, and 4k (you'll probably need to buy the 4080 on launch though.)

ripe ivy Dec 17, 2020, 2:22 AM

I think we're gonna see more Vram usage this generation

3080 is definitely a generational leap against the 2080

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:25 AM

#

@ripe ivy I think it just uses setting that use as much as it can saw a 3090 using 13gb so maybe thats the max since it had 24 to give

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:25 AM

#

double of the 2080, slightly over 100% in some areas against the 1080

#

but the 980 was brutalized by the 3080

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:26 AM

#

some leaps are bigger than others

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:27 AM

#

the only reason to buy a 2080ti instead of a 1080ti?

rtx

like gtx 580 was only 8% more performance than gtx 480

why cant evga find a good design and stay with it

ya so I only use 1440p, will NOT upgrade to 4K, and I need to keep GPU for 4 years. I dont have $$ to shell every 2 years on a GPU

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

evga is dumb sometimes

crystal lark Dec 17, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

so what ever VRAM I get has to last 4 years

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

3080 works more then enough

#

it'll last you, worst case scenario, 3 years

#

best, that might be 4-5. If you're fine with medium settings and can keep it in good condition you MIGHT squeeze just a bit more out of it

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:33 AM

#

I feel like evga only hires designers to work on the kingpin cards and doesnt care about the other cards it makes

tender mulch Dec 17, 2020, 2:33 AM

#

We're 2 years into the 2080 release date and it's still a very capable card. 3080 should be good for 4-5 years @1440p

yeah thats true

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:33 AM

the 3080 will last 6 years

so basically by like

Like, massivley king

tribal hedge Dec 17, 2020, 2:36 AM

2025, 1440p and 1080p will probably be in competition with each other then

is what im assuming?

tender mulch Dec 17, 2020, 2:36 AM

#

As in, barely 6% of Steam users are 1440p or 4K

every screen in my house other than the thermostat can display 4k its time for everyone else to catch up lol

if it was outside warranty there is more we could do but at this point best to just send it in

#

And they will try to fix it first before they give me a new one

#

And they cant lend me a card for time being

hard wren Dec 17, 2020, 2:50 AM

so you now have to wait for the company you bought it from to be the go between not sure how that is "helping" the consumer
