So... the reviews still aren't out for these things?
I think they will be available the 20th according to an article I read a few weeks ago. The 2080 reviews were supposed to start the 18th or 19th and the 2080ti reviews on the 20th.So... the reviews still aren't out for these things?
Just for clarity, it's the 27th for purchasing a ti:19th is official review date. The 17th was official date for the 2080 then Nvidia moved it to the same as TI.
20th is the official stock availability date for purchasing.
Yea I heard they pushed back the dates for them. The one I ordered won't be available until nearly end of October but I can easily still cancel it since it's a backorder if the general reviews that show up don't satisfy. The initial videocardz benchmarks had me hopeful at first.Just for clarity, it's the 27th for purchasing a ti:

Hardware Unboxed will have theirs up on Wednesday. I think he said 30 game benchmark.So... the reviews still aren't out for these things?
They don't need to go 4K. Just 1440p60 or 1440p50 would be mighty fine with the amazing GI, reflections and shadows from ray tracing.Optimizations will not help the implementation go from 1080p to 4k.
LOL! Are you some kind of developer or what? Of course we will! See you after they do it. I just hope you will have the guts to admit you were wrong. Although looking at the whole Vega Primitive shader fiasco doesn't give me much hope.We won't see playable frames at 1440p either.
Today I was sad that other's were going to be getting their FE cards before I got my FTW3. This video made that a little better. Thanks.Massive Pain if you ever need to service fans on FE cards:

I won't get mine till end of October anyway if that makes you feel any better. Excited for the ftw3 model always liked those.Today I was sad I other's were going to be getting their FE cards before I got my FTW3. This video made that a little better. Thanks.
I was happy with my 1080ti FTW3. I was ecstatic with my 1080ti FTW3 Hybrid. Silent, cool, and fast. The 2080ti FTW3 is a placeholder until the 2080ti FTW3 Hybrid is released.I won't get mine till end of October anyway if that makes you feel any better. Excited for the ftw3 model always liked those.
Everyone has a right to buy what they want with their own money, but I'm not spending a dime on these ridiculously priced parts. I've been decidedly pro-Nvidia in the past because (to me) they have pushed the performance, introduced the most innovative features, and did their best to differentiate PC ports from their console-based designs. No longer. Not with $800+ suddenly becoming the new norm. Go AMD. Go Intel. Lets get some competition. Whoever has the best $400 card in 2019 gets my money. I'm not paying a tax on forward-looking features I won't use today.

I'm not really understanding this discussion about anti-aliasing. For the most part, anti aliasing is free or near free, as it's usually TAA or FXAA, something post process. Multisample anti aliasing isn't supported by many games, and if we're talking about DLSS, well, it's not going to be supported by a whole lot of games either, at least at first.
TAA in Fallout 4, for example, is costing you a few FPS, like 2-3% of your performance, and it's by far the most common form of AA these days.
Hell maybe PS5/Xbox 2 will finally make PC gamers leave outside of the ultra high end...4K VRR with 8 core Ryzen and Navi GPU is sounding good right about now.
A mouse and keyboard has been the primary reason I stayed a PC gamer. If either PS4 or Xbox added that capability to all games.... Bye Felicia!
I had a gigabyte 1080ti oc model when it first came out. It had tons of issues, just not stable at all even at the factory oc modes it came with like game mode, etc. I returned it to Newegg and luckily they were out of stock so they refunded me otherwise they would have just sent another or I'd have to pay restocking.I've own 1070 FTW and 1080TI FTW cards and both were phenomenal. I'd really like to pickup a 2080TI FTW but the price is really short circuiting my brain and the 2080 just won't be much of a jump from a 1080ti so I may be sitting this one out. I'm a fan of EVGA and after dealing with Gigabyte and Asus's warranty process I'll only go EVGA or MSI for graphics cards moving forward.

Who even said anything about 1080p40? you? You are the only one with that fallacy. Every RTX developer intends to run the game 60fps at the minimum. Then go up from there. BFV already ran 1440p50. with only 14 days of optimizations. They expect 50% more fps with proper code optimizations. I will refer to their better judgement thank you.People do not buy a 2080Ti to play at 30-40fps 1080p.
How about you feast your eyes over this fantastic Metro GI video. This is what ray tracing truly means. And this is a monstrous game changing visual upgrade.Let's ignore the fact that literally no one will be stopping to gawk at the leet graphics in a game like BF5.
All I am hearing are the same excuses that were there when NVIDIA launched Hardware T&L. Same crap over and over. Guess who prevailed at the end?All I'm hearing is a train of excuses for a launch that will have no games to use the biggest feature the launch was about. The mental gymnastics game you have is impressive to say the least.

You also should expect plenty more once DLSS kicks in these games.

HOW MANY TIMES do you need to know that that demo in the video was PLAYABLE by actual human beings? PEOPLE have played it, and it's actually in the first minute of the video where it shows you the character you play with. For the rest of the video the camera needs to be free to showcase the difference. You know thats how comparative shots are taken!Feast? A demo that is mostly comprised of a camera on rails. I don't know what games you play, but in mine I actually control my character. This literally proves my point. Most of the stuff we have seen has all been demo reel. If realtime gameplay were up to snuff we would have seen that more than anything else.
I could give you links for those very same devs saying that performance right now is early and not representative of actual fps. And that things will improve ALOT. But I would be wasting my time. You are not worth it.These people are talking about it. Everyone on the Internet is talking about it.
I even used Forbes. Your favorite technical website.

1080p 60fps https://wccftech.com/dice-battlefield-v-60fps-1080p-rtx/ Cinematic 1440p though... Another favorite website of yours BTW.
Yup DLSS. None of the games shown used DLSS yet, they don't even use denoisers which will boost fps a lot.DLSS. Yup that's relevant to anything I've said.
History is all we ever learn from. Obviously you can't. So I don't feel sorry for you.Hardware T&L? Lets go back to ancient history to invent a point that can't be had with what we are talking about right now.
