Finally we get to see how much of these rumors is true. The rumor mill has been insane with these cards.

The only takeaway from this is just how much of a monster the 2080ti will be comepared to 2080.

So 8GB for 2080 is pretty much confirmed, right? My concern is that games back in 2016 (Deux Ex MD, XCOM 2, Rise of the Tomb Raider etc) already used 8GB+ of VRAM in 1080p 😕 Shadow of War and Resident Evil 7 are also good examples though they are newer games.

Wow the stream user count is getting insane ! From 1200 users yesterday ( It started counting at 24 hrs ), it kept rising slowly but then exponentially until now ( T -23m ), 48000 users and still climbing fast !! I wonder if Twitch is able to handle so much load. Edit: 51000 after a few more mins ( T -21). Insane !

48,000? Ninja - a single streamer - gets like 300k regularly and broke 600k+ before.

That's why i said before that for 200$ more (remains to be seen) people get something much better than the 2080. Also 8GB VRAM is nothing, even GTA V with AA uses already close to 6.4GB VRAM at 4k. And they will do a 7nm refresh anyway. I'm more interested in seeing how NVLink is like and how much it costs. GTX2080 Ti if indeed 1200€ (max 900 for me) then i'll just wait for AMD, couldn't care less if i can't use GSync ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But knowing AMD they'll release like 100 cards at launch and people can't buy them because no stock 😛

Indeed, the Ti will be the one to go for here, unless the price is high at retailers. AMD, I mean, come one, how long do you want to wait? Going by the last decade, they'll release something slightly slower and slightly more expensive a few months from now when nobody cares. But, those who buy them will have 2% better performance in 3 years time. So it's up to you.

140Κ+ people on the livestream? So much hype? Nvidia is number 1# for marketing and building hype around her products for sure.

AAaand there is the feminist included just in case, that has no idea about the industry she's being included into (either politic commissar or token...haha). Eeww.

I was going to post "we're yet to see a female with natural hair color on the screen" lol. This pretentious pandering and fortnite/pubg cringe is killing me. Or maybe I'm just an old fart.
