NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super Features 10 Percent Faster Memory
NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce RTX 2080 Super graphics card doesn't just max out the 12 nm "TU104" silicon and add higher GPU clock-speeds, but also features the highest-clocked GDDR6 memory solution on the market, to make the most of the 256-bit wide memory bus of the silicon. NVIDIA deployed 15.5 Gbps GDDR6 memory, which is 10.7 percent faster than the 14 Gbps memory used on the original RTX 2080 and other RTX 20-series graphics cards. The memory real-clock is set at 1937 MHz compared to 1750 MHz on the original RTX 2080. At this memory frequency, the RTX 2080 Super enjoys a memory bandwidth just a touch short of 500 GB/s, at 496 GB/s.
Besides memory, the RTX 2080 Super maxes out the "TU104" silicon by enabling all 3,072 CUDA cores physically present, as opposed to just 2,944 of them being enabled on the original RTX 2080. The card is also endowed with 192 TMUs, 64 ROPs, 384 Tensor cores, and 48 RT cores. The GPU frequencies are set at 1650 MHz with 1815 MHz GPU Boost, compared to 1515/1710 MHz of the original RTX 2080. NVIDIA is launching the RTX 2080 Super at an MSRP of USD $699, with availability slated for July 23. The company's add-in card (AIC) partners are allowed to design custom-design cards that come with improved cooling solutions and higher clocks.

if this is the case... i may indeed get a 2080 super.
So if anything then this generation NV is competing with their own prices... Seem to me Turing does not really fly off the shelves judging by their quartely earning report.
Midrange xx60 parts for 349 and 399USD? Same goes for AMD and their RX 5700 series. Both should've been 299 and maybe 329-349 for the Super and the XT... tops.
partner cards don't beat FE cards even now, FE cards have the best power delivery and OC;ing headroom of any of the 3rd parties. Nvidia made sure of that this round.
While the 5700 is way less than the 2, the top AMD card will soon follow. RGTX 2080 Ti Super OC
And honestly, if you are competing against yourself at the top end its more rip you and then rip anyone else.
2060 –> 2060 Super = 13.33%
2070 –> 2070 Super = 11.11%
2080 –> 2080 Super = 4,35%
2. people might see this sole endeavor as price inflation prone and thus not buy into it at all, rather wait for some healthy competition.
