    More truthful? Get out of here with that. Steve is more harsh but there is nothing at all untrue in what I wrote and he and I arrive at most of the same conclusions.

    Exactly. Steve made one additional key point that I didn't harp on. He said it was boring many different times. I love GN and Steve - so, that's not a critique of him or his work. He just felt more strongly than I did. Otherwise, our conclusions are the same. You just won't see me complaining when a company cuts pricing by $100, makes it more powerful, and throws in two free games for people.

    You failed to mention that ray tracing and the other additional features the card offers are just gimmicks.  A decent ray tracing card is years away. 

    When you factor in 3 facts, 4k is just not something most of us even want.  One, the price of a 4k monitor plus at least a 2080 at minimum is beyond the budget of most gamers.  Two the difference between 1440p and 4k is minimal especially if you sit in front of the monitor, in fact I would even argue that most cannot tell the difference.  Thirdly, you don't really need a 2080 to play at 1440p so why waste the money. 

    The new AMD offerings in the graphic card market play 1440p great and at half the cost makes this card strictly for those that like to throw money at things for egotistical purposes.

    And lastly, buying this card just supports Nvidia's extremely high pricing.

    Agreed - both concluded the same thing - slightly faster 2080





    Not sure what was more truthful?




    He just kept repeating that the card is "boring" - and then kept saying that it's a fine card.
    Just boring???




    Umm wtf? Was he expecting the card to take him out on a date or something?


    Well they're the SUPER series. One would expect them to be, you know, SOOPER DOOPER compared to their non-super counterparts. They're not. This card is a few FPS higher than a 2080. That's not boring, it's pointless. These cards are like a cringey "Me Too" campaign.

    Or maybe they're all SUPER now. I'm sure there's an Incredibles meme in there somewhere.



    I would agree with this (and do in the sense of branding) but since it's straight out replacing the 2080, I wouldn't go so far as to say pointless. It serves the same purpose as the original 2080 but a little faster and cheaper.

    I'm actually really curious about that. In a game that scales well, they could outperform the Ti. You'd have to catch them on sale to save enough to make it worthwhile, though, and SLI support is at a low point from devs.

    When I buy a video card I stay between $250 & $350.  I see no reason to spend more when I almost exclusively play MMORPGs.  The exception is when a card goes on sale, with a price below $250.  When I got my RX-480, it was listed as $269, but a sale + MIR (yes, I actually do the MIR's) brought it down to $239.

    When I see cards in the upper price ranges, I always think:  That's nice, but it ain't nothin' I'm gonna buy...

    DL comparisons of 1080ti and rtx 20xx(,s)

    Hi everyone,I found a 1080ti (used) but cheap enough that's in the same ballpark as getting a 2070 non s and ~350euros cheaper than a new 2080. I have seen a lot of benchmarks putting 1080ti around 2070 and 2080. My question is, do these account for the increased memory capacity of 1080ti? The 1080ti has ~130% the memory capacity of the other two so the question is. Should I go with the 1080ti or a 2070? I am using both RNNs and CNNs.
