About LinkBacksI care only for a good performance/price/power consumption ratio. The thing I'm really tempted is to buy a Navi card only to give the middle finger to nVidia for teasing us with those prices just because they can.

Nope.
Grab that. Get that. Check it out. Bring that here. Grab anything useful. Take anything good.
Not yet, only bought my 2080 last year and thats still performing very well, so no need just yet.
Waiting for the next release, probablhy around this time next year.
Very. It's either 2060 Super or 5700, whichever is better value for money. Let the reviews come!
Nope - My 1080 Ti should last a good while yet.
No, I paid £340 for a GTX 1070 and £608 for a GTX 1080ti. The price hikes for this generation need to be snubbed.
No, I have no requirement for one.

It would be nice to upgrade form my 970, but they do cost a lot so current thoughts are to hold off. It may be better than what happened since the mining craze, but that's the minimum I expect. Them promoting raytracing with reduced performance gives more reason to hold off until something better. If one of my monitors end up dying, then perhaps that would give me reason to upgrade resolution, max framerate and hence a new graphics card.
Yes and no would be my answer.
If I was in the market to buy a new gpu now or needed to replace an existing one then for me I'd have to pick nvidia (cuda..) so the logical option is look at the 'best I can get for my budget' from nvidia which would likely be around the 2060 super, maybe a 2070 super. Mind you I also think they're overpriced due to Nvidia price gouging because of a lack of competition.
Am I in the market for a new gpu, thankfully my current gpu's are fine (touch wood) so I have no reason to look at a gpu that is in realistic terms only slightly better than what I have now.
Now if it was the next generation of rtx then I might be thinking a little differently but it all depends on how much it actually improves etc.
You really had me going there for a moment...Originally Posted by Saracen999
In answer to the original Hexus question: No, I'm not even considering an nVidia Something-Something Super card. Very happy with my GTX 1080, thank you very much. Which I coincidentally only have because of a good deal.
At those prices absolutely not.
Nope
My 1060 6gb is just about enough for me at the moment, but had they introduced the 2060 Super at the non-super 2060 price, and the non-super 2060 had dropped in price to that of the 1660ti, then I would have been alot more interested in the non-super 2060. I don't really see the point in spending over £300 for a graphics card though, unless you game at 4K and have money to burn.
Nope, especially as AMD conned Nvidia. I wondered why they'd release pricing for parts they'd not actually released performance data on. All you have is the price and some vague technical details and a name.
Then they let Nvidia come out with this and promptly dropped the price and sent out a tweet about how they did a bait and switch on Nvidia. So now, everyone is holding off on buying the new Nvidia cards as those AMD cards are now cheaper and we don't know the performance yet.
Beautiful move.
Remember all motion in space is relative and that goes for GPUs as well. They're only good or bad relative to their price and the competition.

Not at all tempted. I'm running a GTX980Ti on an i7-3770k and that's probably overkill for 1080p.
I'll consider upgrading in another generation or two, once I've upgraded my CPU/mobo
Yes in a few years time... Just received a GTX1660 from Scan today, so sorted for a while I hope.
