Made this thread so that we can all discuss the Nvidia announcements and anything else juicy being revealed at GamesCom 2018

EDIT 5

GeForce RTX 2080 3DMark Time Spy Benchmark Leak Approaches Titan Xp Performance


https://wccftech.com/nvidia-geforce-rtx-2080-3dmark-timespy-score-leaked-clocked-at-2ghz-and-beats-a... https://hothardware.com/news/geforce-rtx-2080-3dmark-timespy-benchmark-leak-titan-xp-performance


EDIT 4

Nvidia 2080 first benchmarks:

Nvidia Shares RTX 2080 Test Results: 35 - 125% Faster Than GTX 1080

https://www.tomshardware.com/news/nvidia-rtx-2080-gaming-benchmarks-rasterized,37679.html

Under certain conditions, 50%< most likely across the board without the use of AI-powered anti-aliasing.

We’re not expecting to average 50%-higher frame rates across our benchmark suite. However, enthusiasts who previously speculated that Turing wouldn’t be much faster than Pascal due to its relatively lower CUDA core count weren’t taking underlying architecture into account. There’s more going on under the hood than the specification sheet suggests.

This is what I mentioned earlier. Now the 2080 Ti has almost 50% more Turing CUDA cores than the 2080, holy shit, that thing is going to be a beast.

Nvidia announces QUATRO workstation cards based on Turing Technology and RTX (Real-Time Raytracing)
Interesting tidbit from Nvidia press release on new Quadros:
  • New RT Cores to enable real-time ray tracing of objects and environments with physically accurate shadows, reflections, refractions and global illumination.
  • Hardware support for USB Type-C™ and VirtualLink™(1), a new open industry standard being developed to meet the power, display and bandwidth demands of next-generation VR headsets through a single USB-C™ connector.
  • New and enhanced technologies to improve the performance of VR applications, including Variable Rate Shading, Multi-View Rendering and VRWorks Audio.

See, I told you those prices were optimistic. Nvidia cashing in on the mining crazies! Those prices are high and will be even a bit higher with third party builders like MSI, Asus, evga etc. Then the price will jump up by a 100 or 200 due to mining.

Seriously, $1,199 is a joke, I've stopped watching the feed. I'll make do with the shadows as they are until the games that fully support these cards are out. They might be the right price a few years from now..

More games coming to utilise RTX (those naysayers that said it will be ages before we see anything using the tech can eat their hats ... NOW)

I will write it off as a business expense. so a 2080Ti it is.

Just now he said "What are you all going to play these amazing games on!!!!! LET ME SHOW YOU!!!" all i thought was.. well not your 20xx series. Probably will go with the AMD upgrade later this year.

btw AMD is coming out with a 21 TF card instead of Nvidia's 14 TF card.

A PC with lots of gadgets inside and a thing to see in 3D that you put on your head.

Oooo that was a bit cheeky - picture of a 2080 Ti and "Starts at $499"
