NVIDIA Announces GeForce Ampere RTX 3000 Series Graphics Cards: Over 10000 CUDA Cores

[good11]

What about PCI-E Version on them ?

Can someone clarify it ?

3.0 or 4.0
Thank you

 

[Max(IT)]

Yeah but lets see what shops actually sell em at.

Well after the initial rush with low availability and higher prices, the price should be lower, not higher.
Third party solutions with better coolers could cost a little more

Was it just me or did the stream crash midway? Also, check this out: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-JXBPMRZtUx0q0BMMa8Nzm8YZiyPGkjeEZfZ2DOr8y8/edit?usp=sharing

Jen-Hsun for sure likes kitchen shows....

He's keeping everyone safe, nothing but praise there.

i loved when he pulled the 3090 out of the oven. glorious.

Based on what? A single RT demo or next gen console games running at 4K30 with checkerboard rendering?

Based on all the performance data from both next gen consoles, technical document releases, and that they clearly will have evaluated PS5 and XB dev kits, and likely had rough performance of RDNA2 desktop leaked to them.

The pricing and gigantic, inefficient 3090 reflect this. Why else would they do it? You think they just rolled the dice and decided to slash their margins on volume sellers, and produce an ultra low yield furnace halo product for the LULs?

I was almost dropping a tear when he was talking about 1080 (which I run to this day) and that it safe to get 3070/80 now

Hey, I'm still on a 980 Ti, but it does seem to be time to pull the trigger, 500 bucks and boom, 2080 Ti performance and all the shiny new tech, damn Nvidia ARE big meanies!

Just waiting on Vermeer too and it will finally be time to blow the cobwebs from my wallet.

 

[Imouto]

RIP AMD.

This time around they won't be able to compete even in price. I see the higher ups at AMD hovering their mouses over emails asking their providers to stop the RDNA2 production.

 

[PowerPC]

Love how much cognitive dissonance must be going on in people's heads right now. Just a day ago people were still saying this kind of performance / price was "literally impossible" on this very forum.

He looked at me through the screen and called me his "Pascal friend" and said "it's safe to upgrade". Guy is salesman for sure.

Thats for sure ! Time for my 1080Ti to find a new home , im really tempted between the 3070 and 3080 , if the 3070 can rasterize as well as 2080Ti i might go with it if not i will grab myself a 3080 .

Too late, a couple of millions of consoles are already commissioned to have RDNA2.

Do you even know on what planet you are ?

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

I'll wait on benches and reviews.
I feel my 2060 just became an igpu grade though, that's for sure.

As a happy owner of a 3 months old RTX2080 Super with an LG CX6LB OLED 4K 120hz 55" TV as a monitor...yup I knew it wasn't going to be enough for playing at actual 4K but doings its job at 1440p. Depending in how those RTX3080 reviews are at 4K resolution, I might get one withouth even thinking about it.

Also I bought it for 789€ (Gigabyte Windforce OC 8G model) and now it could sell for what...400€ at most? Nvidia killed the reseller market for those that paid way more than I did and now looking at stores with massive amounts of 2080Ti's for around 1300/1600€...What are they going to do basically since the 3070 prices can't get that higher after the recommended price tag. I bet no one in their sane mind is going to buy a new 2080Ti now after this.

All in all I don't care that much, I'm glad NVidia came to their senses for once and kept prices in the right place, the 3080 is well priced in my opinion BUT that gap between this and the 3090 could mean they have something more to show.

Again 4K reviews on that 3080 will sell the deal to me, HDMI 2.1 is also my main reason to upgrade for having stable and functional 120hz and GSync at 4K even if I'm not reaching higher frame rates.

in a same boat. Although if it takes long, I’ll just get something like 10400f which will be fine for 1440p gaming to cover me till am5/lga1700

 

[Amite]

I can feel the used GPU prices on Ebay falling with out even looking.

 

[kings]

519€ for the RTX 3070 and 719€ for the RTX 3080 in Europe... not bad at all. Prices of Founders Edition.

It looks like my 980Ti will finally get its well-deserved rest.

 

[CrAsHnBuRnXp]

But does RTX 3090 support SLI

SLI is dead. Nor will you need it with a 3090.

 

[ZoneDymo]

so uhh where can I watch this presentation back?

 

[theGryphon]

Can't wait to see what NVIDIA will have for sub-75W LP segment

That's one of the points, though. Consoles are obsolete even before launch.

It was dead but they actually implemented a new version of SLI just for this card.

Two trains of thoughts, not necessarily contradictory ~

If Nvidia was able to pull the 2.5-3x perf/W efficiency it's possible they may have priced it similar to the 2xxx lineup. Of course Nvidia would be looking at RDNA2 perf & that big ball of nothingburger called nCoV ravaging the entire world atm. Now depending on which side of the fence you are, NVidia's margins could be higher though I'm 100% certain their overall sales would be (much?) lower!

Next is what we see right now, Nvidia cannot really get that perf/W efficiency leap as some of the leaks suggested. That means Nvidia card will not be better in nearly all metrics vs AMD, unlike the last gen. So pricing it to enthusiast grade is nearly impossible for them. Hence the current "attractive" pricing.

The only way Nvidia prices Ampere the way they have now is when RDNA2 is really competing with them on perf/W & likely perf/$ as well. Anyone remember Intel's mainstream quad cores for a decade BS till Zen launched? This likely the same game played over again.

 

[BorisDG]

I'm curious how they will perform on PCI-E 3.0

 

[efikkan]

Specs are looking pretty good (on paper), perheps except TDP numbers.

It's funny to see that most "leakers" were pretty wrong on these specs.
