NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti to Perform Roughly On-par with GTX 1070: Leaked Benchmarks
NVIDIA's upcoming "Turing" based GeForce GTX 1660 Ti graphics card could carve itself a value proposition between the $250-300 mark that lets it coexist with both the GTX 1060 6 GB and the $350 RTX 2060, according to leaked "Final Fantasy XV" benchmarks scored by VideoCardz. In these benchmarks, the GTX 1660 Ti was found to perform roughly on par with the previous-generation GTX 1070 (non-Ti), which is plausible given that the 1,536 CUDA cores based on "Turing," architecture, with their higher IPC and higher GPU clocks, are likely to catch up with the 1,920 "Pascal" CUDA cores of the GTX 1070, while 12 Gbps 192-bit GDDR6 serves up more memory bandwidth than 8 Gbps 256-bit GDDR5 (288 GB/s vs. 256 GB/s). The GTX 1070 scores in memory size, with 8 GB of it. NVIDIA is expected to launch the GTX 1660 Ti later this month at USD $279. Unlike the RTX 20-series, these chips lack NVIDIA RTX real-time raytracing technology, and DLSS (deep-learning supersampling).

(surely this post and yours will be deemed low quality..... keep treating the symptoms and not the real issue, TPU......... yawn)
Maybe you did miss my "/s"? :)
They overestimated things by whopping 25%, and it nearly entirely is from customers not bending over backwards en mass enough.End of 2008 was when FC unleashed, most of the 2008 there was crazy growths, in many places two digit.You could not be any "wronger". 1080 at 330mm^2 was ridiculously small.
We can't discuss "why" of things becoming expensive here, without many getting hysterical over it, so let's just keep it at what is not deniable: it got much more expensive and inflation is a laughable excuse for it.
Right now your looking at asic's if you want to even come close to mining at a rate that may be profitable.
Most of the hobby based miners have figured this out, and the big farms arent using gpu's
any one could have foreseen this happening and many did which didn't help the value of crypto currency when they dumped their coins.
when some GPU only cryptos had ASCI's designed for them it was the beggining of the end "for the time being" of gpu mining.
I think this may actually be allong the lines of what your saying any way.
From the MSRP of the last card that occupied such performance pedestal, now a card that provides 2Gb less memory and will almost undoubtedly work a smaller chip, is a 15% price reduction... This is a yawn as those with good GTX 1060 6Gb aren't seeing a upgrade, or GTX 1070 are still in the same position.
We'll see here soon enough its price to performance ratio and where it lands!
If I'm paying $280 and not getting a usable 1440p, it's even a worse deal. Sad this passes as really "new" with hype more than a RX 590. While Nvidia held strong to a supposed $379 MSRP that in many people minds was truly suppose to be in line with the 1070Ti and just never got cut to the $330 it really settled into. Just because Nvidia kept a stiff-up-lip after mining went bust we aren't drinking the diluted Kool-Aid to think that has any reality after two years.
I guess they are all smoking what im smoking.
As for today ,Nvidia owns the GPU market, is unmatched in innovation and performance, and what they do game developers will follow , and where game developers go, everyone follows. Wanna hit? you seem to need some of this reality weed.
