For myself, I'm waiting for 7nm, both CPU and GPU to do a full build. I want to go 4K HDR and all stars should be aligned by then, especially with the predicted fall in RAM and NAND prices.Yeah, unfortunately AMD won't have anything close to these GPUs until 2020+ and by then NVIDIA will have 7nm behemoths dialed.
Yup, it's a huge die and they're pushing clock speeds through the roof but I bet they're super efficient if kept at lower clocks. I wonder how they will mine...

Pretty sure 6-pin is an additional 75W, 8-pin is 150. Plus the mobo which gives 75 W.
By the way, if this will be a short generation, time wise, then ALL of the models are going to be released soon. 2070, 2060, 2050, etc. No drip, drip, but a full release to maximize sales in the time available.
I wonder if I should be thinking about upgrading my 4790k if I pick up a 2080ti?
It's almost pointless to do the smaller cards since they won't really but Turing with the the RT/Tensor HW. So you can just do some rebranding for lower end:
2060 is rebranded 1080 family
2050 is rebranded 1060 family.
Done.
Though I don't believe it will be a short release.
My bet is 2000 series will have a 2 year run, with 7nm die shrinks phased in.
I know the TI varient usually gets released a while after the new gen is released, but maybe they'll release it at the same time. That would be noice!
I (tend to) agree that we might see some Pascal GPUs step down a tier and renamed 2xxx, especially if they don't come with the RT additions. As to the cards lifetime, if the 2080Ti models are soon released, you're still stuck on 2 years?

Yes, that's why I follow the rules and clearly ID it as a WCCF link.That looks to be fake, and WCCF will post things like that to generate clicks.
Who can say for sure? This generation is shaking up the assumed rules.Pretty obvious fake to me, IMO Nvidia will definitely not reduce the amount of VRAM. Especially not if that card would be a 1080 performance-wise.
Maybe wait for a month and pick up a 1070 cheap.Wondering what the best bang for $300 bones would be.

1060 now, or wait two months for 2060 or 2050?
Wondering what the best bang for $300 bones would be.
There is a 5gb 1060? I've not seen that.Well we have 3gb, 5gb, and 6gb 1060 cards now.
