Nvidia RTX Discussion

K.O.Kiki

A new era in 3D graphics stands before us.

First-gen Raytracing GPUs:

Nvidia "Turing" - Quadro RTX 5000 / 6000 / 8000 (US$ 2'300 / 6'300 / 10'000)

I missed the live event so just catching up with some videos now.

Some good info here about the changes and the applications. Great stuff for developers and content creators as well as gamers.

Even using the GPU to speed up high end SSD's to get something like the PS5's capability.

Have to feel sort of sorry for anyone trying to sell a 2080ti on adverts at the moment (despite some of the ludicrous prices), already being brigaded by comments

Homelander

Amount of clowns on there as well who clearly have no interest in buying the card, they just get a thrill out of spoiling the ads.

ive a 1080ti for sale there, wondering what its new value should be...

Impossible to really tell until benchmarks come out, mostly down to how the 3070 will match up against it at 500 quid new. If it's a case that the 3070 beats it across the board it'll probably take a big hit.

BloodBath

These new cards are gonna be hard to get for a while. Most people don't keep up to date on the latest tech either.

I wouldn't change the price too much. There's still some advantages with that card like the amount of memory for some applications.

Currently in the process of building a PC, mostly for gaming and getting away from consoles (hopefully). I've sourced a decent bundle on a 3700x CPU with an MSI B450 carbon max board, as everything I looked at before today suggested there'd be no issues with that board. Before I pull the trigger on that, is there any reason to be skeptical that the PCIe's won't be good enough? Don't know if there's enough info out there yet...
Probably gonna look at trying to get a 3070 or 3080.

I mean they are using the word Big, so its got to be Big right?

Knowing AMD it may well be. Time for the GPU pillar again? I still remember my 7990 fondly.

I really want to get my hands on a 90. But I'll have to upgrade the rest of my system too so I need to wait for new CPU's. But I don't want to miss out on the Founders card. It's so pretty!

Time to retire my 2x 1080 Founders Editions. I got nigh on 5 years of good service from them, which is pretty much unheard of in the GPU world, if not all of gaming hardware. But they're showing their age, with a few recent titles like Control and Flight Sim stressing them heavily.

Jaysus, if you think dual 1080s are showing their age in control, what must you think of me and my 1060 3GB :pac:

Revoker88

Recently been seeing people pay up to €900 for MSI 2080 Tis that were OEM blower style made for pre builts.

My god those poor people:(

They have only themselves to blame. Even the most basic bit of research would have showed the new cards right around the corner.

And wait till the 3080 cards are launched you will have pricks on there selling the 2nd one they bought for x2 the price! :rolleyes:

I thought the 3090 is really a Titan replacement so not really a consumer version

Samuel T. Cogley

So has the claim the 3070 is on par with the 2080ti been confirmed or do we need to wait for reviews?

I see tech Jesus is saying that's what nvidia have said. Exciting times.

Nvidia claimed it in the event but I'd wait until reviews for that to be confirmed, to me it does look like a significant leap.

I'll be going for the 3090, and if I'm happy with it, there's good odds of adding a second. While SLI has been heavily marginilised, I'm looking at them for distributed computing work.

[Deleted User]

According to Jayztwocents, a contact of his has said SLI is dead.

For the 3080 and 3070 yeah. He mentions that it'll still be possible with the 3090

Mr Crispy

3090 has the NVLink connector, the rest of the line-up doesn't, afaik.

Edit: Already answered

What is that

Homelander

Sli has been dead for a long time now from a software POV for gaming. It's just not worth it, most games either support it poorly or barely at all.

Doing computing work for scientific projects. In my case it's mostly maths currently. And you can see the results of some of it here:

3080 for me I suspect - sold my 2080ti about a month ago for 850 - don't think you'd get that now!

That buyer is probably feeling sick now.

System performance is impacted by many factors and the impact varies between applications. The impact is typically less than a few percent going from a x16 PCIE 4.0 to x16 PCIE 3.0. CPU selection often has a larger impact on performance.We look forward to new platforms that can fully take advantage of Gen4 capabilities for potential performance increases.

from the current Reddit AMA

Overclockers have a few listings up for 3080s and 3090s

Edit: 3070s starting to be listed.

Really tempted by the 3090. But the sheer size of it could be difficult to fit in.

That's like those stories you hear of farmers who sold land for millions in 2007 before shít hit the fan. You essentially got yourself a free upgrade and a few quid in the bank.

"Clearance: Must have space for 12.3" (313mm) x 5.4" (138mm) x 3-slot card"

It's about the same size as a XFX THICC III
