  • RTX 2080ti - Nvidia "Turing" Upgrade

2080ti is the 4k 60fps king
With RTX OFF, because when you will (god knows when) have a RTX title you will be enjoying 20fps on 4k screen with the 1300$ card
2080 beats the 1080ti , good joke :)

the 2080TI is a decent card for 4k , fair enough

and it's 20% faster on average (2080TI that is ) , 25% in best cases scenario , 12-15% on worst cases , so 20% on average .

is it worth it price/perfomance ratio ? , surely not , is it nice to have for someone who can just buy it , it's a nice card an increase overall .

that's the whole situation , in few words .

RTX is made for 1080p , and that i'am being generous , i highly doubt we will see RTX titles this year , the TI can't handle it , the devs and nvdia knows that , they just sold people some advertise new tech and called it a day .

the 3000series is the one to look foward

Man, with all due respect you are kind of disrespecting other members with your posts every time you sound like Dan Bilzerian and the rest of us are poor peasants over here, I am pretty sure the majority of the forum members have good careers and can easily afford buying these RTX cards or several thousands dollars desktop builds, but the arguments here are all about the performance/price ratio or the FPS / $ ratio which in this case and many reviewers agree that the RTXs are not really worth it.

I am validating my point mate , if any one loves techs he cannot simply refuse a new tech solely based on price/performance ratio without

1- Real testing a new tech in own hands vs self comparing with the old gen tech and not relying only on reading to give a final self subjective conclusion.

2- Underestimasting a new tech with a couple of months lunch frame ( without giving it some time to really understand what in really offers aside of regular rasterization for example on 1080ti vs 2080ti argument.

3- Giving low number average increases as 20 % increase in rasterization on average meanwhile it is 30-35%( and i posted several times with references in this thread)

4- To be rational why a new tech costs this high ( and I drilled down the costs factor too vs previous gen )

5-Price /Performance is not fixed , as prices will drop gradually ( RTX 2080ti Black Ed. EVGA is now 999 USD) and the performance will increase in the maturity stage of the product.

This is my logic ,some might refuse it some mayagree , money is part of the equation and to me I will have a positive ROI to many reasons I will not repeat of Pascal Vs Turing. Yes I can wait for a no ETA product like RTX 3080ti " I assume that will be its name" but I like to enjoy what tech offers me today to leverage my gaming experience.

It's passion leaning towards addiction too LMFAO , not only in building desktops & gaming rather all tech related things

Recent TVs
Home Entertainment Systems
Drones
Custom Modding & Ocing
Sound Systems & Dolby Atoms
Mobile Phones
Etc..

Spending serious money on that passion but I do not regret that at all, since it has a special statisfaction. My work helps me too since I finish @2:30pm and Fridays @11am
In Hitman 2

Ryzen is a major letdown of bottlenecking the Rtx 2080ti and heavily limited due to the Ryzen. So limiting the performance to the case of

i5 8400 / GTX 1060 / 1080pUltra ~83Fps vs
1700x / RTX 2080ti / 1080pUltra ~ 50Fps

Wow i didn't even know jobs like that existed!:)
i finish at 8pm every day..:(
My initial motivator to get rid of the 1080ti and replace it by the RTX 2080ti are

1- 2160p performance and weak minfps vs IQ compromises to boost the minFps
2- HDR Gaming induced latency due to SW processing pipeline.
3- Failure too to have a locked 100fps experience on 3440 × 1440p 100hz*






On Average from PCGamer

Avg Fps on 2160pUltra Increase: ((73.7 -55.3)/55.3) × 100% = +33 % in Regular Rasterization

Min Fps on 2160Ultra Increase: ((57.4 - 44.6) / 44.6) ×100 % =+28.7 % in Regular Rasterization

I will enjoy gaming now on 2160pultra and on the PG348Q hitting 100fps - Both Resoutions without IQ compromises

RT + DLSS AA are a bonus features to me and will be gamechanger when both combined.


BF 5 Ultra IQ + Ultra RT is achievable too on 1440p60fps on Rtx 2080ti

Now it is made to make ray tracing possible on a 999 USD card, instead of 68,000USD rendering farms used in Hollywood to create RT scenes due to its heavy computational needs of evey ray traced to be rendered alone. It a revolutionary base to add a new level of realism in the gaming industry.

It' nice to be an early adopter and experiement with it vs entering the game of waiting with already lucklaster performance of previous gen 1080ti on 2160p in regular rasterization.

For any new emerging technology , just give it time with further tweaks , optimizations and combination with other new technology as DLSS to give a final subjective opinion based on the end result gaming experience.

Dark days for the RTX cards, BF 5 bad RTX performance, Final Fantasy is no longer planning to support it (even that I dont know who plays this game lol), last and not least an AIB custom board Gigabyte RTX2070 of JokersProduction has died with the same symptoms of the diying 2080Ti FE with small space invaders all over the screen which could mean problems in the core design or manufacturing itself
According to Gamers Nexus, who has been in touch off the record with numerous retailers, manufacturers, and suppliers, the RMA rate very low. Actually lower than normal. So you are hearing from a frustrated vocal minority. Which they are understandably upset, given the $ spent, and the shortage of supply makes getting a replacement take a bit longer.

Members here that bought any of the RTX Family cards like Mr.Class , any problems till now

- Artifacting
- BSOD
- Black Screens
- Game Crashes

Any RMA process taking place.

Most probably it is a defective 1st batch , replacements are now shifting from Micron GDDR6 to Samsung GDDR6.
the same failure (space invadors) of the 2080Ti and the 2070 speaks for itself, yes the RMA number is still low but the new lineup is still fresh, and partner/custom cards are not safe from this
i got my 2080TI RTX today , just installed it on my system , more to follow

What Brand/Variant mate ?
there was only Malit GALLARDO 3 Fans

well i have been playing shadow of tombe raider , i tried 4k with TAA Anti aliasing seems to hold 57-60fps most of the time around 18-20fps more than 1080ti , but that heat coming out of the pc is scary temp going up till 80 , seems to be safe though i'am not sure , i'm kinda reading about it right now

i can give some early numbers based on 2 games with a bit of overclocking to keep the heat in check


for honor

average fps increase is 13.77

minimum fps is 27fps increase

max fps is 17.33 fps increase

1080TI was running @2050

2080TI running @1980-2025

Shadow of the tomb raider is between 15-20fps give or take .

More to follow after i walk the dog .

one downfall the from the 1080ti is the heat , pascal was reaching 60c under full load but yet again i have one of the best 1080ti on the market which cost new around 900-1000$
