Bang for Buck also has a video of BFV using over 9gb, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpetTcK4Vgk
Personally I wouldn't buy a card with less than 11-12GB ram if buying now. The 1080 Ti /Pascal XP have been out for over two years and future games will only get more demanding. Sure you can dial...
I'm playing Arma 3 with 5500M view distance 4500M Object distance all settings maxed/Ultra plus 4x transparency SSAA. 1080TI SLI and image quality and general performance is great but I'm already at the limit
of my memory. I've been on the same rig for a while with SLI XP's then 1080Tis (5960X...

So does all this mean an 8 core 16 thread 3000x at 7nm has a decent chance of beating a 9900k in gaming and will it be a worthy upgrade on 5960x at 4.5ghz?
As stated wait for Zen2 next year. 7nm will be a decent uplift and should be affordable if AMD execute as expected. I’m on a 5960X but will probably go back to the red team in 2019.
I agree, I was vaguely considering jumping on a 9900K to replace the 5960x instead of waiting for 7nm but
Intel has guaranteed I'll wait with those prices. It's almost like Intel are in a bubble, oblivious to what is happening in the real World and believing
they can crap on their consumers...
Yeah I totally agree regarding 2019 and 7nm, why else would they launch the Ti early (compared to the usual cycle) and at an astronomical price unless they know that they or someone else has something either better or equivalent but much cheaper at 7nm coming in 2019.
I am pleased Nvidia are trying to improve image quality and Ray tracing clearly will one day be quite good at doing that. However the images I've seen make water appear like Mercury all over the screen. Yes water is reflective, no water is not quicksilver and I actually prefer realism rather...
Way to go dude, lead by example. Can’t wait to see the beast in action and any benchmarks, feedback etc! Edit:Obviously minus the benchmarks but including temperatures, issues or not etc.
Apart from very few samples can do 5ghz, 4.6-4.8 seems the typical maximum and that's consuming 250-400W and I don't want to use
liquid Nitrogen every day to cool it. As said above the platform is overly expensive and it's gaming performance isn't where I need it. Oh and it's neutered with...
I really want a 9900K with solder and 5Ghz but I really can't condone Intel's behaviour in holding out so long on offering a competitive 8 core CPU. 9900K looks a like a good CPU but how many PCIe lanes does it have and is it hobbled in any other way. It's only thanks to AMD that we have this...
I assume in Windows you’ve selected maximum performance in the power settings and this throttling occurs when on mains plugged in power not the battery?
There are loads of 1080TIs in stock in the UK and availability on the Nvidia.com website at the launch price for the first time in over a year so I'm inclined to believe they have a backlog of inventory that needs shifting.
Asus took over 5 months to replace an RMA X99 deluxe MOBO for me. It fried 2 CPUs and I’d forgotten about the RMA and rebuilt the PC long ago meaning I was left with a useless board I didn’t dare test or sell.
Why wait, you can always sell the 1080ti further down the line? Seems if you’re happy to wait then buy the successor to the 1180TI in 2022 or wait longer still and get a blisteringly fast card in 2025. Personally I’d get an 1080TI now or wait until September and get the1180.
Depends which games you play and at what resolution. At 4K most games are GPU limited so unless you have a 1080ti/SLI you’re likely limited by your graphics card. However many games can benefit from more than 4 cores. GTA5 is a good example. Games such as Arma3 would see an increase of over 35%...
I use my PC mostly for gaming but I’d love my 5960X to have an IGP despite owning 1080TI SLI. For everything apart from gaming an igp is fine and when I retire the system from frontline gaming use I would still be able to use it without additional cost or buy a near useless low end discrete GPU.
I wasn’t responding to you and actually hadn’t read your post I was just cataloging the stuff AMD has previously said about their cards. I accept that the architecture usually shows its merit with age but lately the longer term improvements seem to have stalled. I used to always back AMD but...
Just remember the Vega like a fine wine will just keep getting better. I haven’t owned an AMD card since my 295x2s and have been consistently impressed with every Nvidia card since (980TIs,Titan XPs and 1080TIs). Vega has been a laughably bad gaming card reminiscent of the 3870 and I pity Intel...
It’s your CPU and RAM, Wildlands is very well threaded as is Far Cry 5 afaik. I am pretty sure you’d have 20-25% better results on a 6700k at 4/4.4ghz or better and with 2600mhz memory or faster. Moving from I7 920 at 4ghz to 4770k at 4.6 to 5960x at 4.6 was a lesson in how much faster newer...
I suspect Vega refresh will be a 25mhz clockspeed improvement with little to show in real world situations. Maybe in 3 years AMD will come good again but I have zero faith in their being competitive this or next year. ‘Poor Volta’ ring any bells? I want to be wrong but I’ve been following this...
Short answer, not really. 4K was excellent with Titan Xp SLI for me and 1080ti at 4K is good. 5K will not be good in modern games but probably playable.
What are you doing /playing? I'm keen but can't see any worthy content on Oculus rift ( Fallout excepted) but I want to want it. 1080ti is even more compelling than 980TI congratulations and happy gaming.
Wait, 1080ti is nearly 12months old, Titan Pascal 18 months new cards will drop soon, wait until September 2018 if you can, if not then as long as you can.
I've had Titan Pascal SLI and currently running 1080ti all founders edition and they all have run 1987-2012 MHZ pretty consistently when gaming, yes they're noisier but the clocks seem to stay at that level all day with very occasional very short duration slow downs (typically down to 1947 or...
I’ve owned 27” and 40” 4K monitors and 40” 4K 60hz was the biggest leap forward in immersion since 1920/1200 28” replaced 23”crt. I understand vrr monitors are better and 144hz is better than 60hz but I could never go back to a tiny ‘phone size’ 22-27” monitor again even with hdr and 300hz and...
I noticed the Witcher and GTA 5 at 4K you could run much higher settings with Titan XP SLI and good gains in RTOR. That’s with 5960x at 4.6 and Using HB bridge. No difference in fact slower in Arma 3 but could use SSAA and it never looked better. The best scaling was never or rarely better than 50%.
I'm not sure I'm with you, the reason I used the example of the dog was it's a Bethesda game as was Fallout 3. It's not an open world game so there is less excuse for a dog rendered in 2017 to look considerably worse than one rendered in 2008 not more. I've a friend whose a video editor and his...
I am surprised Wolfenstein 2 The new Colossus is even in this list. I've only played the free demo but the render of a dog and a woman's legs reminded me of games from a decade ago. Some of it looks very pretty but tbh I was appalled at the lack rather than presence of graphical fidelity. The...
You’re right, I thought I was a grown up but I’m simply a little boy in a fully grown man’s body. Yes, let’s all cosplay Star Wars with our themed GPUs in our super star destroyer rigs, I just wish it looked more like the Millennium Falcon.
What a pathetic disappointment, I’m an adult not a spotty teenager or toddler so this has zero appeal. I guess it’s aimed at the children of rich people.
If it’s Volta I’ll be very excited. I’ve been treading water with 1080ti for too long. I can’t believe they’ll release another Pascal Titan but then again.....
They haven’t launched Vega 64 properly yet so Navi won’t be ‘ready’ until 2020 at their current rate of progress. Ideally NAVI will be capable of competing out of the box rather than waiting for some fairy Godmother development team to tease performance out of some labyrinthine architecture...
I’ve always bought AMD cards if the performance is there, I don’t even worry too much about performance per watt. For two generations AMD have underperformed and just like in the 2900XT and 3870 days they’re currently churning out crap cards that don’t perform anything like their price would...
Navi will be late, under perform and run hot while being expensive and noisy. It’s what AMD GPUs do these days.
