What 2020 feels like. And there will be no 3080 TI.
I see it as new tech/software they're trying to standardize to better cement their brand into everyone's mind that Nvidia is the company for raytracing. Next generation I would agree with him that "Raytracing is the new standard". More games will support it, more GPUs (looking at you AMD and possibly Intel if they have their GPUs out) will be pushing raytracing.
I also don't like DLSS - any images always appear fuzzy from reviews. There is a reason why I always disable "motion blur" in a game's settings; to me, DLSS feels like a very minor motion blur setting that's always on and it impacts everything whether you're moving or standing still.
LOL. And that's an achievement? Interesting.
2. There were no rasterization performance comparison between NV cards in the RTX 3060 presentation, only RTX? Another interesting story.
Than based on the specs it seems this may not be that much slower than the 3060Ti while being only $70 cheaper
It is not like Nvidia is doing charity here, the cost of 12GB will definitely be passed onto consumer who are silly enough to believe 12GB is needed for a 1080P GPU
