Even my 1060 OCed runs 1080p perfectly at around 80-100fps. For example running EFT and Insurgency at 80 to 120 fps. Well Insurgency runs better, smaller maps different engine.
There were leaks about a 20GB 3080 along side all the other leaks that turned out to be true. Supposedly held back as a counter to what AMD is releasing.
The early independent tests I see have a 65-80% uplift from 2080ti to 3080, higher in RT. In any case, 20gb version is less than a month out, that's the one worth getting.
It’s all a waste of money until there are games that can fundamentally make use of them. Which won’t happen until multi-platform development cuts the PS4/XBO loose.
The most significant news is that they feature RTX IO. Direct low latency low CPU overhead SSD data decompression. You can have all gigaflops and cpu cores you want but without that you’ll be boned for next-gen stuff.
I could use some more oomph for my 4k screen and tv. Using a Radeon VII because linux, but if Nvidia is so much better i might go green and see if i can make it wok under linux without too much of a headache.
I've used nvidia as well under linux. Things i didn't like was power management not working properly, the card a gtx980 did not clock down properly and ran full blast doing jack shit because i didn't like screen tearing. Also nowadays i run Fedora and that has a rapid update cycle for the kernel which is with nvidia not ideal. I don't care if it's a binary blob.
