Yes. I could not care less as long as they offer killer performance. At long last, they finally offer appreciably more performance per dollar than Pascal. That is a win in my book.
Yeah the 10 series is still the king of value. I think people will find that some of these super cards are not as good as they seem. The 2070 super for example runs less cores at a higher clock to get close to the same performance of a 1080. But the clocks used are basically what every 1080 can do in its sleep when overclocked. Overclocking results on the 2070 super put it only up to the 1080 stock due to the lower headroom available. And many 1080s are clocked 90mhz higher or more by default. The 1080 super will fair even worse having basically the same amount of cores as the 1080.
While true, I think you guys are overlooking the value that the 2080 and 2080 Ti cards bring: NVLink. It's not the same as SLI. Going forward, this will allow these cards to retain much longer longevity on the market.
"value" he says. I paid $799 for my 1080ti and quite a few people said THAT was a high price. NVIDIA sure fooled them. I could care less about NVLink. I have very little reason to have more than 1 GPU in my system. The 1080ti more than keeps up at 4K at max details (or close to max details, sometimes I might have to turn AA down depending on the implementation used), and by the time it doesn't, there will be faster cards that do.
the 1080ti will go down in history as one of the longest lived cards ever. since the 2080 ti is not a significant step up especially when you consider price. the 1080ti basically spans two generations of dominance

Worst naming ever by their marketing department!maroon1 - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link
Who cares about names ?They can even call it Trash. If it delivers good performance then I will buy it

You still have to pay $700 to beat the raw flops of a 1080ti. No deal.Opencg - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link
