In fact, minor differences in board design, firmware, or just 1% variability in benchmark runs all become factors. The 9900K, for example, now comes out 'ahead' of the 10900K at 4K medium, and the gap is even larger at 4K ultra. That shouldn't happen, except it frequently does when you're looking at different motherboards - even with the exact same memory. Maybe the differences in SSD play a role as well.The point isn't that the 9900K is the fastest CPU at 4K ultra by 1%. The real point is that the difference between the fastest and slowest CPU we tested is only 8% — and if we drop the 4770K, the gap shrinks to just 3.5%. « Last Edit: September 17, 2020, 07:45:30 AM by rooshooter » Logged social media is the tobacco of this century buellersdayoff RestrictedRacing Full Member Posts: 908 Karma: 31 Re: Nvidia 3080 - 80% better performance than 2080 « Reply #16 on: September 18, 2020, 08:00:45 AM » https://www.overclock3d.net/news/gpu_displays/pc_gamers_sabotage_rtx_3080_ebay_listings_as_scalpers_attempt_quick_sales/1 Logged rooshooter RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 2887 Karma: 52 Re: Nvidia 3080 - 80% better performance than 2080 « Reply #17 on: September 18, 2020, 12:03:33 PM » Quote from: buellersdayoff on September 18, 2020, 08:00:45 AMhttps://www.overclock3d.net/news/gpu_displays/pc_gamers_sabotage_rtx_3080_ebay_listings_as_scalpers_attempt_quick_sales/1LOL, don't f**k with PC guru's, it's bound to end badly .

I'm just going to wait and hope prices don't jack Logged Bird Administrator Hero Member Posts: 2324 Karma: -666 Ysu Re: Nvidia 3080 - 80% better performance than 2080 « Reply #19 on: September 21, 2020, 09:02:40 AM » Just wait. We've waited years for such a card, we can wait a bit more, no?

I've seen some anecdotal comments about ACC in 4k but nothing else.Early reports suggest real world bumps are perhaps not as earth shattering as the "spin" may have indicated (not a surprise). Certainly the cards are more "efficient" and offer a decent performance delta however these two measures are not interchangeable as some outlets had interpreted.

A proper stoning may be in order The massive performance gains leaked are actually related to thermal and power and are not linear with rendering performance. In some scenarios there are impressive performance improvements but in others they are pretty small in scale (e.g. 130fps - 145fps - your not going to notice). I have noted the limited "low" res performance uplift. Might be a case of the cards trying to keep up with the increasing screen density we are expecting these days but I was not really looking to upgrade all my screens to justify the graphics card upgrade.I think the real benefit will be from fully utilising the capability the "RTX" brings which I don't think is being optimised in the sim racing world. Now might be a perfect time for the West brothers to reappear. Don't get me wrong, I am still on the pre-order list and will get one to replace the trusty 1080ti. « Last Edit: October 08, 2020, 02:54:56 PM by ab156 » Logged buellersdayoff RestrictedRacing Full Member Posts: 908 Karma: 31 Re: Nvidia 3080 - 80% better performance than 2080 « Reply #23 on: October 07, 2020, 03:47:21 PM » Which one did you pre-order?

AORUS Master. I put a massive amount of thought into it.... basically the last 2 motherboards and GPUs have been Gigabyte / AORUS and I've been happy with them so....I know EVGA are cheaper and seem to be the pick of the bunch for price vs. performance however the list of people trying to get them is extreme.Have you got one yet?

I did pre-order the cheapest evga as it's what I reckon already more than what a gpu should cost, however I'm contemplating cancelling since my 1080ti still does the job ok. Although CP2077 might be a different story and cranking ACC to max would be pretty cool.

I'll try find the clip and link it here.Lets hope the new AMD cards are more gaming focused and lead to better results , crosses fingers. « Last Edit: October 08, 2020, 10:20:24 AM by Jarmel » Logged Jarmel Jr. Member Posts: 242 Karma: 11 Re: Nvidia 3080 - 80% better performance than 2080 « Reply #27 on: October 08, 2020, 10:14:55 AM » « Last Edit: October 08, 2020, 10:17:06 AM by Jarmel » Logged killagorilla Sr. Member Posts: 430 Karma: -2 Re: Nvidia 3080 - 80% better performance than 2080 « Reply #28 on: December 10, 2020, 10:20:59 AM » Quote from: Jarmel on October 08, 2020, 10:12:37 AMI'm not convinced yet either , Dan Suzuki did a you tube clip on them running with triples to test them out and the gains were highly disappointing .The games he tested seemed to be more cpu limited than GPU limited so the 30 series gains were pretty much non existent over the 2080ti in ACC .
