Hopefully 4K@120Hz and 8K are right around the corner.One of the sad realities of a new card is there needs to be a reason to buy it. Right now the gaming landscape is a pile of crap. I can't think of more than a handful of games even worth playing let alone any that need more GPU power. My only hope for buying a 2080ti is the next Battlefield game. It better look sick and be taxing. Then I'll be happy and excited about a shiny new ti.
If you use VR and demanding software like military sims it does help. But nothing of great improvement I think until there is a new VR headset with increased lense resolution.Honestly, if you already have a 1080 or 1080 Ti, is there really any reason to upgrade? The only people that need more power would be adamant 4K 60Hz gamers. Otherwise high-end Pascal chews through most everything at 1080p/1440p, with the availability of high refresh panels. Unless games in general make a giant leap that requires up'd perf, the best benefit for gamers on release of next gen NV would be the influx of used Pascal.

Yea but the vive is ugly and cumbersome. I'll get the occulus v2 whenever that comes out and hopefully by then resolution will be higher than the vive pro and the 2080ti will be out to run it.

I hold you to this.Want to bet?
Like Nvidia is going to tell its plans to anyone. Fake news.
OK so my vega 64 reference is kind of too noisy and uses just a bit to much power to placed in a open closet, so was wondering. What the status of next gen nv stuff? - i am ready to fork out 600 for some midrange stuff as i need midrange power usage - is all still a big unknown?
Remember that original MSRP pricing was $379/$449 for the 1070 and $599/$699 for 1080. Figure the floor for launch price is at least $50 more than the FE pricing.
Maybe nVidia can get creative with the yield to come up with a model which could be mining-only. Defective ROPs disabled, etc.
Lets hope that. But dont under estimate the black econony.Mining would have to be dead for those prices though, I think.
Since profitability from graphics cards has been weakening, Nvidia and AMD have both been decelerating the developments of their new GPU architectures and prolonging their existing GPU platforms' lifecycle, the sources said, adding Nvidia's next-generation GPU architecture Turing will not enter the mass production until the third quarter.

These whole Turing speculation just doesn't add up. No way Nv will start production of their 12nm next gen in Q3, launch in Q4, when 7nm is around the corner. Have they maybe totally cancelled their 12nm gpu line because amd is no competition? And we get a mixture of old infos (12nm in Q1,Q2) and new infos with 7nm at the end of the year?
So in light of the ray tracing announcement, will we see the upcoming gaming cards with tensor cores after all...

Not at first because we get the mid rangers, remember? Mid range cards barely faster than a 1080ti that cost about the same money as one. No special cores on those. The new Ti card, when it comes about a year from now, will probably have the special cores and cost about as much as a Titan used to cost, only $1,000. The new Titan brand is now a $1,500-$3,000 product.
Well, Titan V's architecture, tells you what we will see on consumer GPUs .So in light of the ray tracing announcement, will we see the upcoming gaming cards with tensor cores after all...
