Is there a dedicated review thread?
The problem is not GPU performance, it's API bottlenecking. There's no hardware that will overcome those kinds of limitations.so the absolute latest and greatest 30tflop card cant even get 45fps on a new release game in 4k?
I know FS2000 melts PCs but i would have thought a brand new 30tflop card would have been able to handle it better.
with thats said, i assumed a 2080ti could do better than 35fps.
Im assuming it would get 60fps in 1440p end DLSS bringing it up to 4k
He slammed the 5700XT, yet he's an AMD fanboy...?Oh, it's this nutjob AMD fanboy again.
Not for the amount of power it consumes.Looks like the 2X from 2080 to 3080 was (like many expected) just the best case scenario in one game with RTX enabled. Real performance increase looks to be at around 60-65% over the 2080, which is still impressive
You're getting a nice jump with 2x the traditional raster performance, plus awesome benefit of DLSS in all sorts of games. Solid upgrade and great bang-for-buck as opposed to something like a 2080ti.Finally I can play RDR2 properly (coming from 1080Ti)

TPU has the useful Average FPS for all games tested at any given res, which gives a nice snapshot of what sort frames to expect:
3080 all games avg fps(Ultra/Max Settings) = 1080p/186.7fps | 1440p/154.6fps | 4K/97fps

Wouldn't make sense to upgrade right now. Either wait for the 3080 Ti or until more games start to use full path tracing because in those games the 3080 kicks the 2080 Ti's ass.Looking at all the reviews I think I will stay with my 2080ti for this gen of card.
Not surprised, HardwareUnboxed found a mere 8% performance per watt improvement over Turing! Shows how bullshit the 1.7X PPW claims were from Nvidia marketing.
The power draw is horrendous as expected.
Getting tempted to get a 3080 while I wait for the 3090.
Now that everything is out, what is recommended PSU wattage?Those benchmarks are very impressive! The fps you get on 1080p using 2080Ti is the same fps you get on 1440p using a 3080!
The GPU surely consumes power too. 320-322w standard. Many people with not so powerful PSU's will struggle
Got to praise the stock cooling also. They did a great job
I've always heard 750 is more than enough. Could be wrong.Now that everything is out, what is recommended PSU wattage?
(yes, I'm lazy to Google it, so help me out guys)
Expected, but I was still hoping my 650W platinum EVGA would be good enough. Oh well.I've always heard 750 is more than enough. Could be wrong.
man i dont care about the benchmarks. I'm comming from a 1050ti and a shitty monitor and going to a 3080 and a 1440p monitor. going to be huge difference for me cant waitFinally I can play RDR2 properly (coming from 1080Ti)
It is enough. You won't likely reach 600W power consumption, even with the 3080. Unless of course, you do some crazy OC on the CPU side as well.Expected, but I was still hoping my 650W platinum EVGA would be good enough. Oh well.
Still, it's gonna be nice upgrade sometimes from my 1080.
Nah, I don't bother with OC.It is enough. You won't likely reach 600W power consumption, even with the 3080. Unless of course, you do some crazy OC on the CPU side as well.
You'll be fine then. Especially since your PSU is platinum rated... Take a look at this, and you can extrapolate the power consumption of the 3080.Nah, I don't bother with OC.
TLDR: 3080 at least 30% higher than 2080ti. Upwards of 40. 3080 90% higher than the 2080.
looking at that it makes me happy that I could actually sell my Saphire 5700XT at just about 430€ while my initial purchase over black friday ended up being 459€. In total I used a graphic card for ~9months at 29€ having great FPS with all that I have been playing and now I can truly buy a 1440p/4k graphic card I wanted.Finally I can play RDR2 properly (coming from 1080Ti)
750+ .. Anything less is not worth itNow that everything is out, what is recommended PSU wattage?

Yes, I'll get a rig set up by early summer '21. 3080 for sure.Bryank75 you still coming back to the PC fold?
Glad to hear it. I'm good. Tomorrow is going to be spent trying to get a 3080. I'm looking forward to the PS5 event today. Good day for gamers.Yes, I'll get a rig set up by early summer '21. 3080 for sure.
But I also decided that I want to get a Cintiq 16 to draw and stuff, so that's another grand probably.
Games I'll probably play are Crusader Kings 3 and other strategy games, I think Civ 6 would be way more enjoyable on PC. Even though I will still found the Religion of PlayStation (LOL).
How's it looking for you?
Everyone else did, because it sucked.He slammed the 5700XT, yet he's an AMD fanboy...?
According to some clowns here that is all useless, you need a 3090 and a 8k displayman i dont care about the benchmarks. I'm comming from a 1050ti and a shitty monitor and going to a 3080 and a 1440p monitor. going to be huge difference for me cant wait
Hardware Unboxed disagrees about it sucking, along with a bunch of other reputable review sites. The 5700XT was the best card you could buy for the money. In fact, for 1440p, FPS per dollar wise, it still is, even after today's reviews. At 4K, the RTX 3080 is the best value right now in terms of FPS per dollar. I get the feeling that's going to change soon.Everyone else did, because it sucked.
But yeah, he is. Or at very least an Nvidia hater, and a notoriously bad one, too.
Some people definitely will buy them at that price. I think even at those prices they will sell out quite quickly.How quickly do you guys think scalped 3080s will sell out on eBay at twice the MSRP ($1,399)? Do you guys think that people would buy them at that price if they're unavailable at official retailers?
Sounds good.Some people definitely will buy them at that price. I think even at those prices they will sell out quite quickly.
Remember that miners are also looking to buy these cards.
He went a little extra with the pcmr stuff. I don't care for the ban but he'll be back. I'm looking forward to hearing his thoughts on the 3000 series.What happened to VFXVeteran? Why'd he get banned, not seeing the reason on the ban history list.

It's there on the second page. We lost him on the same day as Thugnificient.

Does anyone know when orders will go live in the UK? Midnight???
