I'm starting to wonder if the Geforce 7nm are going to be $2000, with the prices the way they are..
Exactly - Volta cards did even go higher, but it's not for gamers. Last evening using the CV1 I couldn't help thinking that my oc'ed 1080 was a nice match for the quality I'm experiencing in current VR games - that is, the CV1 resolution is limited, there're god rays and if you look for it the SDE is quite noticeable - and not to forget the grey fog (spud - lack of true OLED blacks). I couldn't help thinking that - unless some awesome VR game arrives soon - maybe it's better to wait for the CV2 and then consider what hardware I'll need to run the CV2 optimally. If we're going beyond 2k, I'd like a more high-res HMD with close to no SDE - and not just a new shiny turbo-motor to drive the old car...

I think they will be trying to keep their current user base into CV2 (of course). Which means they have to consider not just what they want to charge for the CV2, but how much it's going to cost people to buy the necessary hardware to run it, as opposed to the CV1. That could affect which resolution they go for in CV2.
I don't think it will just be "lets use the largest res screens we can".

Although yeah that is pretty typical, the price $ to fps ratio this time around is one of the worst around, if you consider just "classic" games, the ones that do not take advantage of the new tech.

Yup, that's pretty standard between generations if I'm remembering correctly.
Not sure if that's enough to warrant me getting a 2080 tbh, I might wait until the 2180 is released before I upgrade again...assuming that's going to be the new naming convention. They went from 10s to 20s because of the new RTX technology I think so unless they add something else new we should be seeing 21 cards next generation I think.

Good point. I remember people complaining that the new multi-core cpus were slower in games than the sing cores.

It's a bit like when multithreading and multi-core CPU's started to appear ... it took a bit of time for developers to start utilising extra cores on the CPU, but eventually it lead to faster applications. Actually many games just a few years ago only ever used 1 core on the CPU, untill multicore rigs came down in price. and adoption became widespread. Battlefield 5 now wants 6 cores! 🙂
