Ampere under £400.
When there's some availability and third party cards without a silly connector, this is what I've been waiting for.
Unless the 6700/6700XT comes in under £400 and has decent performance thinking this might be my next card...
Thank-you for the review Hexus - glad you included the 1060 for comparison, unlike alot of other sites! :) If I could actually get a card for £369, then I'd love to get one, and have the money to, but not only will there be very few available, the non-founders cards will also cost more anyway, and even more important for me, I still need other components to go back in stock like AMD's 5000's series CPU's, so all these nice tech launches recently just make me even more depressed. "Here's this nice cool product we have.... but sorry, you can't have it, it's just for show". Ho hum.... maybe sometime next year.
At the rate things are going with AMD CPU and GPU prices,and lack of availability,an Intel and Nvidia rig actually now makes more sense for a mainstream buyer.
AMD will price the 6700XT at £429 beause it has 12GB of VRAM,and is a few percent faster in rasterised performance,and consumes a bit less power.Quote:

Assuming it's actually available at under £400, I'd get this, were it not for the fact I don't have an income right now and I'm already not far from max settings on COD Warzone on my new 144 Hz / QHD LG. Think I'd need to spring for Black Ops to take advantage of ray tracing and DLSS as well.
It will be a hit if nvidia can deliver enough cards before Xmas.
unfortunately Hexus are not giving Flight sim 2020 benchmarks
While I'd also like to see them, I can understand why - the time it apparently takes means you're adding a lot of cost to the review for not a huge amount of info since FS is being patched quite regularly and performance is changing. Once it's settled down though I'd definitely love to see FS benchmarks in there.Quote:

Be happy to hear your comments in which games you would like to see in - Cyberpunk 2077 and Flight Sim are both favourites. We'll start a formal thread soon.
They would both be awesome!Quote:

Even if you do the latter, DLSS on High is really good in Control. I'll dig out a series of screenshots when I have a bit of time. Right now, that's being spent on a certain big card launching early next week.

In certain scenarios, for some objects such as static noticeboards with text, DLSS 2.0 can look sharper than native.
In other scenarios, during motion, or for smoke or other particle effects, it can be anything from blurry to plain wrong.
So I would still prefer native 4k but DLSS 2.0, in the handful of games that support it, seems to be almost there and looks great most of the time. Hexus claiming the image quality is "at least as good" as native is jumping the gun a bit imo.
We're not saying it's as good as 4K native as the resolution we're looking at is QHD. It is indeed a stretch to say it is as good as 4K.
Been thinking this might be a nice card for my 4790k, yeah it will likely be bottlenecked by the cpu, but for 1080p it will be more than enough and it's got plenty of cuda cores for my usage at the moment.....assuming there is stock. It's not like I can build a full system like I was thinking about at the moment so that might be put off till next year at this rate lol.
DLSS 2.0 is in general better then native with TAA (the normal AA these days) in both sharpness (e.g. stuff like text is clearer) and motion (less sparkly motion artifacting). See games like Control, Death stranding or Wolfenstein young blood. Just google DLSS and those games, look at the recent reviews after the update to DLSS 2.0 not the early ones with DLSS 1. .e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ggr...ature=emb_logoQuote:

However, neither card is in stock soooo
As long as they play on what I'm aiming at for my next monitor (2560x1440@144Hz), that's important as well I guess lol
I think most people agree TAA is terrible, but I'm not sure that makes DLSS better image quality than native. It has the potential to be used in a nice way - upscale to higher res then downscale - you should get really good AA, but normally DLSS starts at lower res and just upscales to your display res.Quote:

How does it compare to the non-AI RIS?Quote:
