  • RTX 2080ti - Nvidia "Turing" Upgrade

Wait don't buy the 2080Ti, the new RTX Titan is about to be launched which will give you more performance, because "When your whole life flashes before your eyes, how much of it do you want to not have ray tracing?" Also it costs 2500$ but money is not an issue to enjoy the leap of the technology
Two Updates:

1st:

Hardware Unboxed RTX 2080ti FE edition passed the 48 hours continuous stress test - perfectly running without any artifactes too

Just Give It Time , RT is a Leap in the level of realism away from rasterization baked reflections , shadows and cubic maps.

2nd:

DXR BF 5 December 5th Update along with the new driver update , increased the Real Time Tracing Performance Dramatically on Turing Graphic Cards - Ray Tracing now getting over 60FPS in 1440p (RT Ultra , Everything Ultra) after optimizing. Good news - no hardware limitation. Remember Real Time Ray Tracing is not an Nvidia Gameworks exclusive like - HBAO + , PCSS , Hairworks .. RT is a rendering technique that need heavy computations now it is possbile for the gamer end- coming from Hollywood movies scenes.

This just proves the developers just need more time to play with the new . Its only going to get better with time.

At this point you could have bought a 1000 of these and ran them for a month straight and people would still doubt you. Many ( 1080ti owners , AMD FanBoys , Tight Budget people .. ) wants these products to fail now and will find any excuse to sh..t on them.

I am frankly annoyed when GamerNexus pointed out that the MSI RTX 2080ti Gaming X Trio has no power balancing circuit , as such the 8 + 8 Pin and additional 6 Pin configuration.

For my next build upgrade , I decided to order the Gigabyte Arous RTX 2080ti Xtreme from New Egg ~ 1570 USD to here (with free BF 5 Digital code)


Descision was between the Gigabyte Arous RTX 2080ti Xtreme & Asus ROG RTX 2080ti Strix O11G.

Both have good looks , custom PCBs , and run cool, but:

Arous (out of the box)

Boost Clock: 1770 Mhz
Memory: 14140 Mhz


Strix (out of the box)

Boost Clock: 1665 Mhz
Memory: 14000mhz


Arous comes with 4 years warranty & Strix with 3 years.



Arous comes with 4 years warranty & Strix with 3 years ( local One Year when it available in Lebanon)



Neither the Arous nor the Strix are available here.







Happy Gaming & PC Hardware Enthusiasm :)

I am in a delimma

Shall I drop

MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Lightning Z with Samsung VRAM

or

ROG-STRIX-RTX2080TI-O11G-GAMING with Micro Vram

For my build theme the ROG suits me more. On the other hand, the Lightning Z attracted me since it has Samsung Vram batch away from micron batches issues :)

I actually got both , althought the stocks are very rare.









Sold the Lightning Z - & I kept the ROG-STRIX-RTX2080TI-O11G-GAMING with three years warranty. I have been searching for it for a while due to low strix stocks and high demand plus it suits case theme more.

Nvidia is Gaining momentum with its technological advancements in the Turing line of graphic cards.

Nvidia DLSS boosts Port Royal Benchmark performance by up to 50 %

What is DLSS ? - Stedio Science

Metro Exodus will have support for RTX and DLSS at lunch on 15th February -Tech4Gamers

https://tech4gamers.com/metro-exodus-will-have-support-for-rtx-and-dlss-at-launch-on-15th-feb/

I think dlss looks great, much better than TAA, pretty amazing that people complain about DLSS but ive never seen anybody complain about TAA, very much like ray tracing, people complain about how bad performance is but dont hear the same complaints about 4k resolution and how we shouldnt have 4k because its too taxing, nvidia creates a solution thats works really well in order to improve ray tracing performance and people still find something to complain about.

Agreed, 4K ftw!!

Nevertheless, being a technology enthusiast is very admirable and fun. Buidling a setup that contain all recent tech from CPU , Graphic Card , Board etc.. and customizing it has a very unique touch. When you have a high monthly netcome, better to pay on a system / recent tech than paying on "golddiggers" :)
I want to give you an advice that you might use it someday. Blaming X or giving up on Y dream will never achieve anything in life. Anyway life is short however you will understand when we become old people and actually understand what happy life means.

True AI / Neural Networks/Deep Learning Power of RTX Line Tensor Cores.

Metro Exodus' DLSS Receives A Massive Quality Boost - Graphical Quality Tested:

"Nvidia's promise with DLSS was that the quality of images would improve over time, with Nvidia constantly finding new data to add to their deep learning program. More data that their supercomputer can crunch through to create better versions of their algorithm, both in terms of performance and image quality.

Thanks to Metro Exodus' latest patch, in conjunction with Nvidia's latest drivers, the quality of DLSS within the game has increased significantly, so much so that we can actually recommend using the feature now. This increase in graphical fidelity bodes well for the future of DLSS".



https://www.overclock3d.net/news/software/metro_exodus_latest_patch_reportedly_sharpens_dlss_and_optimises_rtx_ray_tracing/1
Metro Exodus is the best 2k19 game , i rarely replay any single player game after i finish it , but this one is that awesome that i'am playing it again after the new patch and now with 4k rtx ultra + dlss on , pretty impressive
Metro Exodus Latest Patch Improved DLSS image quality a lot.
So if "Deep Learning Super Sampling" Using Nvidia Saturn Super Computers - Should Learn and get better over time , I wonder if this game will receive a couple of DLSS patches in the future, and maybe at some point the differences in image quality will be barely indistinguishable. The RTX series is solid , but some people ride the "hatewagon" masking that.

bobo619 wroteDoes anyone know how can one check if the Asus ROG RTX 2080ti have micron or samsung vram without installing it and checking GPUZ? I found that mojitech has it in stock and willing to buy it if and only if it has samsung vrams https://mojitech.net/product/graphic-card-asus-rog-strix-in-lebanon-rtx2080ti-11g-gaming/. Also does anyone know where i can find high end rams 3600mhz+ and with good latency in Lebanon.
Sadly You cannot check without GPU Z. Mojitech listed them on their website , but no actual stock. Usually , batches after November 2018 have been replaced from Micron to Samsung across the FE & many 3rd party brands.

I can get you the

ASUS ROG-STRIX-RTX2080TI-O11G-GAMING ROG Strix GeForceRTX 2080TI Overclocked O11G GDDR6 HDMI DP 1.4 USB Type-c Graphic Card with full 3 years warranty.

For the Rams

I can got you the Trident Z-Royal edition starting from 3600mhz + & on.
