    Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 spotted in drivers and benchmarks

    Apparently the second fastest Ampere has a 2.1 GHz GPU, 10GB of 19Gbps GDDR6X VRAM.
    Read more.

    I shudder at the potential price of it - hopefully the near RTX2080TI pricing isn't true(yes,I am sure its faster than the RTX2080TI).

    I'm sure people are leaking this stuff on purpose, why would anyone in a decent enough position to have hands on one of these be stupid enough to post them in a public place?

    GA102 24GB (RTX 3090): 0x2204 - now that is more like what I was expecting (and ideally want, it's the memory, not the overall performance).... now to go look into my local body part removal service to see how much I'll need to remove to pay for it...

    I just Hope the XX70 Card comes with 10GB VRAM.

    the 3090 would have interest here to be honest... huge interest, but only if as well made as the last actual 90... the 690... I still got that card.. it runs almost as same specs as the 680 just 2x... not like the later on Titan failure, in my head that is.

    Either way the 690 I had lasted all the way to 1080ti for me and never have I ever had any better piece of hardware from team green than that one, though double the cost, but half the space as how 2x 680ish would be like.

    But I expect the same failure unfortunately -_-

    Re: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 spotted in drivers and benchmarks

    yes that was an interesting card. I could only dream of affording one, but it did seem a nice way of getting SLI without the SLI. speaking of which can we assume no SLI on the cards < x070 super again?

    I wonder what the overall sales figures for the 2080ti have been to date? When I first heard the retail price I thought to myself "no one will ever pay that much just to play PC games"...and yet...

    I saw a 'leaked' photo supposedly of a 30xx somewhere which showed a different type of SLI connector, so I maybe Nvidia aren't ready to ditch SLI just yet?

    They've moved to 'nvlink' which has at least 2 different connectors, geforce have less lanes than the quadro but honestly not really going to notice the difference in most cases. NVLink basically 'merges' the 2 cards if the software supports it and you can double your gpu memory with 2 cards for example.

    They still label it as sli on gaming cards but it's not really supported in games as much now.

    Sales figure, probably higher than we'd like so they bring the prices down.... nvidia profit from each of said cards, stupidly high lol

    yet the 2060 and 2060 super don't support it, which is usually where I thought the best combinations were to be had. So now it's SLI but only if you shell for it.

    Opinions: do you think a top card in the next NVidia/AMD ranges is going to see its owner through the time period covering this console gen, given that this card would be comfortably better than any console and the consoles are targeting 4K? Or is it going to be a better idea to wait for 2011/12?

    Nvidia likely saw a lot of people using sli on 'lower tier' cards at an overall lower cost so nerfed them meaning if you wanted more performance or 2 cards you have to pay them more. Good old money grabbing nvidia at it's best

    It'll be interesting to see how many console games really are true 4K rather than rendered at a lower res & upscaled. Also, the frame-rates at 4K too. Although there are TVs that support 120Hz @ 4k res just coming on the market, it'll be a while before they are a large market segment.
