But will it be enough for Horse Riding Simulator The Witcher 3 at 8k 30hz?
Regardless, I am excited. This console talk had me nervous that there were going to be lackluster GPUs going forward but I don’t think that’s the case. I know some are not impressed with the NVIDIA releases but I’m not going to hold my breath and die on another AMD cluster fire.
The most PC-butt-kicking one I have is MSFS 2020, and it’s mostly CPU bound right now (I still have a GTX1080Ti in my gaming PC), so I won’t be worrying about a new GPU for awhile.
So many things were claimed by so many people is why I always wait for hard numbers from GN for gaming and Blender Open Data (https://opendata.blender.org/ ) for rendering. And since my GTX1080Ti is still working nice for the games I play (even MSFS) and RTX2080Ti is working nice for Blender Cycles, I’m not in a rush so even more “wait and see” about it all.
Just watched GN video, in short VS the 2080ti the 3080 is averge 20% faster at 1080p, 25% faster at 4k, uses 320W (hello Fury X) and 350W (hello 7990) when overclocked, ray tracing seems to be the major improvement but for non RTX DLSS situations its just a nice performance bump. Considering the AIB cards will cost around $150-$250 more than nvidia is charging, its a hard pill to swallow but still cheaper than the 2080ti.
Definitely not the huge performance bump everyone was touting but still an extra 17-40 fps is nice to have lol
Yeah RTX without DLSS is no bueno. Seems like a perfectly good card for 4K 100 fps. I’d say 2080Ti users should probably skip the gen or wait for the 3080ti, if there will be one at all.
I feel like monitors need to catch up for these new cards to even be worth the upgrade. You have to spend almost $1k just for a monitor that would benefit from a 3080 or 3090.
